The government that will be led by Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka has received broad support from various elements of society. Various development programs pioneered by the previous government, especially those related to fulfilling community nutrition, are expected to be continued better. One of the main focuses is fulfilling children’s nutrition, which has received attention and support from various groups across professions. This support shows the importance of program continuity in producing a healthier and more productive next generation towards Golden Indonesia 2045.
In this case, the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) led by Anindya Bakrie, has shown a strong commitment to supporting the sustainability of government programs. Kadin sees the importance of continuing the success that has been achieved under the government of President Joko Widodo, especially in terms of economic stability and infrastructure development. Success in achieving the targets of the State Budget (APBN) is one of the main focuses, with the hope that the Prabowo government can achieve higher targets. Kadin as an organization representing various economic sectors is ready to make a real contribution in supporting various strategic government programs, ensuring that the Indonesian economy can continue to grow stably and sustainably.
Fulfilling children’s nutritional needs is an important concern in overcoming the problem of stunting which is still a challenge in Indonesia. The Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI), under the leadership of Dr. Adib Khumaidi SpOT, supports the steps planned by Prabowo-Gibran to improve the nutritional quality of children throughout the country. One of the innovations proposed is the use of fish milk as a solution to fulfilling nutrition, which is considered the right step to overcome stunting. With adequate nutrition, it is hoped that the health quality of the next generation can improve, so that they grow into productive, healthy, and competitive individuals.
Apart from the economic and health sectors, support also comes from the community represented by the Rampai Nusantara organization. This community organization has the view that the development programs that have been started by the previous government must be continued by Prabowo-Gibran, especially those related to industrial downstreaming and the development of the Indonesian Capital City (IKN). Rampai Nusantara emphasized the importance of maintaining unity among national leaders to face increasingly complex challenges in the future. The development successes achieved in the era of President Joko Widodo, such as the acceleration of infrastructure development and the reduction of economic inequality, need to be continued with an equally strong commitment by the next government.
Industrial downstreaming is one of the strategic agendas that must be continued. Through downstreaming, Indonesia can maximize the use of its natural resources, provide higher added value, and create new jobs. This can also strengthen the domestic industrial sector and increase Indonesia’s competitiveness in the global market. The downstreaming program that was pioneered by the previous government was considered successful, and now the challenge to expand its scope lies in the hands of the Prabowo-Gibran government. With strong support from the community and various sectors, the downstreaming program has great potential to further increase economic growth and public welfare.
The development of the Indonesian Capital City (IKN) is also one of the strategic projects that needs attention. This project not only aims to create a modern and sustainable center of government, but also as a symbol of the nation’s progress. IKN is expected to be a center of government that reflects Indonesia’s progress towards a developed country, with sophisticated and environmentally friendly infrastructure. Unity and cooperation between various elements of society are the main capital to face challenges that may arise in the IKN development process.
The public also sees the importance of maintaining stability and security under the new government. Rampai Nusantara assesses that the important role of the TNI and Polri in maintaining security during President Jokowi’s administration deserves appreciation, and it is hoped that this role will continue in the Prabowo-Gibran era. Security and order are the foundation for the implementation of sustainable development programs, so that people can live safely and comfortably amidst the government’s efforts to advance the nation.
The support that comes from various elements of society shows that the Prabowo-Gibran government has a great opportunity to succeed in implementing the superior programs that have been planned. The program to fulfill children’s nutrition, industrial downstreaming, and the development of the Indonesian Capital City are strategic agendas that must be supported by all parties. With collaboration and synergy between the government, economic sector, health, and society, Indonesia has great potential to achieve its vision as a prosperous developed country in 2045.
