President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) spoke about the prediction of three new economic superpowers originating from Asia. One of them is Indonesia.
“Because we know now that we have entered the Asian century, the shift from the West to Asia growth. Economic growth has also shifted all to Asia and it is predicted that in Asia there will be three new economic powers. The three economic superpowers that are predicted are India, China, and Indonesia,” said Jokowi at the JCC, Senayan, Jakarta, Tuesday (8/10/2024).
However, Jokowi reminded that caution is needed so that Indonesia truly becomes an economic superpower. He mentioned many conditions that must be met.
“Once again, all three are in Asia, but be careful. To become the three countries that are economic superpowers, there are many challenges. There are many requirements that must be met. Therefore, optimism is important, maintaining optimism is important,” he said.
He said one of the challenges in the future is the global economic slowdown. He is grateful that Indonesia’s economic growth is still above 5 percent.
“I think we all know the challenges we face, the global economic slowdown is estimated to still be at 2.7-2.8 percent, on average and we should be grateful that slot gacor maxwin Indonesia is still growing above 5 percent, also the increase in geopolitical tensions, the Ukraine war is not over, entering the Israel-Palestine war, plus Israel-Lebanon, plus Iran with Israel, the uncertainty of the world economy is increasingly unclear,” said Jokowi.

“That’s what I said, optimism is important, don’t get caught up in pessimism because of global uncertainty due to geopolitics and others,” he said.
