JAKARTA - General Chair of the Gelora Party Anies Matta said that Indonesia has the capital to become a new superpower or superpower.

He tells how the current condition of world stability. Where the world is facing a global transition due to the influence of the Russian and Ukrainian wars.

However, even though Russia and Ukraine are at war, it is the United States that feels the impact, as evidenced by the bankruptcy of the bank from Uncle Sam's country.

"What we hear about going bankrupt is that banks are in America, not Russia. This has become a major disaster and no one knows where it will end," he said.

Apart from that, Anis also said how the regime changes, which cycles every 30 years. Meaning, 20 years of peace, 10 years of chaos.

"Regarding Indonesia, the reform era has now entered its cycle. There will be a round of leadership replacement. So, the 2024 election is a fundamental year for the Gelora Party," he said.

According to him, Indonesia is in the vortex of a crisis, but on the other hand, it has the potential to become a new superpower.

"Indonesia has great potential to become a superpower. But there are those who don't believe that Indonesia can become a big and developed country, even though we can if we can afford it," he said.

Therefore, he asked all Gelora Party cadres and officials to work in an extraordinary way.

"Changing the pattern of work requires brilliant ideas and ideas for the progress of Indonesia," he said.
