REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) Erick Thohir said the presence of the Indonesian Islamic Financial Center (IIFC) Region was a breakthrough in the era of the leadership of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). Erick said SOEs from the start were committed to supporting the acceleration of development over the past ten years.
“It doesn't feel like Mr. President has been leading Indonesia for 10 years, leading us. Of course, the time is fast and thank God we can feel the maximum results,” said Erick at the launch of the Indonesian Islamic Financial Center (IIFC) at Menara Danareksa, Jakarta, Tuesday (17/9/2024).
Based on economic data, Erick continued, the acceleration of infrastructure development has increased significantly in recent years. Erick assessed this infrastructure development to be one of the heartlands of the national economic growth.
“Mr. President also reminded us in the beginning, how the sharia economy must continue to be built,” Erick said.
