REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) and Millennium Challenge Account-Indonesia (MCA-I) celebrated the second anniversary of the five-year compact in partnership with Indonesia on Thursday, April 2.  

This million USD program—focused on natural resource management, renewable energy, maternal and infant health, and procurement modernization—is built around one goal: reducing poverty through economic growth.

U.S. Ambassador to Indonesia Robert O. Blake announced at today’s event, “This five-year agreement is a major pillar of our bilateral relationship and one that we, both Americans and Indonesians, can be proud of as we work together in partnership to accomplish its objectives.”
