JAKARTA - The candidate for the General Chairman (Caketum) of the BPP HIPMI for the 2026-2029 Term of Office, Reynaldo Bryan, initiated a large-scale social gathering entitled "Regional Collaboration Night" at Plataran Senayan, South Jakarta, Friday, May 15, evening. This event is an event to boost the spirit of fraternity and synergy of young entrepreneurs from various parts of the archipelago ahead of the BPP HIPMI National Congress (Munas) XVIII.
Carrying the spirit of "Regional Collaboration for Indonesia", Reynaldo said, this event is not only a gathering event, but a stage for proving a vision that unites.
In his speech, Reynaldo expressed deep appreciation to all the figures and BPD Chairmen who attended. He also reflected on his long journey which purely started from the struggle of local cadres.
"My story started 9 years ago in the era of Ketum Bahlil, departing from the West Papua HIPMI BPD. I processed to become the General Treasurer of the West Papua HIPMI BPD, then met with Ketum Akbar Himawan Buchari, until today I stand here to nominate myself as the General Chairman of the BPP HIPMI," said Reynaldo in a statement received Saturday, May 16.
As a regional representative, Reynaldo emphasized his commitment to eliminating the dichotomy between the center and the regions, as well as encouraging local entrepreneurs to become the main actors in the national economic growth target.
"There is no difference between HIPMI regions or cities. HIPMI must be the main locomotive to pursue 8 percent economic growth. There is no formula for economic growth that is successful if we do not grow new young entrepreneurs in the region. Why? Because the number of new entrepreneurs we currently have is still lacking. That is why the vision we bring is P.A.T.E.N," he said.
Reynaldo said that to gain trust in strategic sectors of the government, young entrepreneurs must build strong capacity. "If we create one ecosystem, we empower, and raise the class, we will be ready. Entrepreneurs must have strong values, must be concrete. If we want to be trusted, our business must also be concrete. I hope that in the future there will be more regional entrepreneurs who can lead as General Chair, so that equity really runs well," he said.
The solid support flow seemed to flow strongly through the presence of dozens of heads of the Regional Management Agency (BPD) of HIPMI throughout Indonesia who that night compactly lined up, equalizing the frequency to escort Caketum Reynaldo Bryan's steps to the leadership seat.
Reynaldo's vision and commitment were also recognized directly by regional leaders. The General Chairman of the HIPMI Sulawesi Tengah BPD, Muhammad Fakhri Fadhlurrahman, stated that Reynaldo is a figure who is very sensitive to dynamics in the field.
"Ketum Rey is very understanding, attentive, and caring about fellow regional entrepreneurs, both in terms of problems and potential owned by each region. The vision and mission of P.A.T.E.N that he brought is fully in line with what HIPMI needs in the future. The vision and mission are very relevant and are also needed by the regions," said Fakhri.
Strong moral support also came from the former Chairman of the BPP HIPMI, Adi Putra Darmawan Tahir, who highlighted the essence of brotherhood and courage in HIPMI. "We in HIPMI are building brotherhood. Later, Caketum must always be reminded that what is being built is brotherhood, and we must always be united. The true test in HIPMI is to dare to move forward, and Caketum Rey has carried out that courage," praised the former Chairman of the BPP HIPMI Adi Putra 1992- 1995.
In addition to the General Chairmen of the BPD from various regions, there were also national young figures Kaesang Pangarep, General Chair of BPP HIPMI Akbar Himawan Buchari (AHB), as well as the ranks of Former General Chairmen (Mantum) of BPP HIPMI. The event was lively, with the highlight being the presentation of the Vision of the Mission directly by Caketum Reynaldo Bryan.
The "Regional Collaboration Night" event was closed with a warm atmosphere filled with happy laughter where young entrepreneurs shook hands and united frequencies. This momentum further proves that Reynaldo Bryan is a unifying figure who is most ready to bring the aspirations of regional cadres to the national stage in a concrete manner.
