Bayu Nugraha, Jakarta – Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto says that the government will continue to advance Indonesia through various development efforts, one of which is downstreaming.
Prabowo asserted that he does not care about comments from those who are unsure about his administration. He believes that Indonesia will have a bright future.
"So this brings optimism to all of us, our future is shining and bright even though there are a few efforts from, who knows where, to always dampen the spirit and future, the spirit and hope of our young people", said Prabowo when inaugurating the Batang Industropolis Special Economic Zone (KEK) in Central Java today, Thursday March 20.
"I assert here, this is not true and we will continue to move forward. Let the dogs bark, we will continue to move forward, we will build a bright future", he added.
Prabowo then revealed that there are many development plans that the government plans to carry out. Later, tens of thousands of jobs will be created for the Indonesian people.
"I just led a planning meeting at the Red and White Cabinet, the investments that we will implement starting this year that will bear fruit will be downstreaming, so that the added value of all our raw materials can be enjoyed by all Indonesian people. Also, the employment opportunities that we calculate in the next five years will reach 8 million jobs", Prabowo concluded.
