Coordinating Minister for the Economy Airlangga Hartarto said that the National Strategic Project (PSN), including the Special Economic Zone (KEK), needs to be supported by the quality of human resources (HR).

According to him, a pair of fundamental things are considered to increase competitiveness to escape the trap of a middle-income trap.

"We know that in the future in 2035 Indonesia has the potential to escape the trap of middle countries. The trap of this middle country can only be done if we have a productive society. Because our demographic bonus is only 13 years old. Not all countries have graduated from the middle income trap," he said as reported by the official website on Thursday, July 27.

Airlangga revealed that the infrastructure built through PSN is a supporter of national economic activities.

The key is of course infrastructure, both land, air, and sea. Indonesia needs healthy and intelligent human resources. Ready to compete with artificial intelligence changes. Now that's the most important thing," he said.

Furthermore, Coordinating Minister Airlangga explained that in addition to supporting regional development efforts, the government also encourages the development of the quality of human resources for residents around the area.

Therefore, polytechnics are important. Otherwise, the surrounding community does not immediately enjoy it. The government also encourages CSR-CSR to be obliged to the area around where economic activity is located. We don't want to see a high economy, the development is high, but there is still a poverty rate," he said.

Regarding infrastructure development, Airlangga said that Indonesia has a low energy cost.

This proves that Indonesia's infrastructure is built efficiently and competitively.

"Indonesia is also pushing for digital-based industrial reform 4.0, which is supported by infrastructure development," he stressed.

As the main support for economic transformation, 158 PSNs have been operating in the last eight years, with an investment value of IDR 1,107.2 trillion.

Furthermore, Coordinating Minister Airlangga also mentioned the development of the State Capital (IKN).

As part of PSN, IKN development can encourage economic diversification to represent the nation's progress.
