Candra Irawan, the Vice Rector for Student Affairs and Alumni of Bengkulu University, recently took part in a Panel Discussion at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta, where he engaged with Indonesian President Prabowo and various Rectors and Leaders of State and Private Universities. The discussion revolved around Indonesia’s abundant natural resources and the need to harness them effectively. President Prabowo emphasized the importance of utilizing resources like nickel, bauxite, and minerals to empower the Indonesian people and drive progress in the country.
One key takeaway for Candra was Prabowo’s focus on implementing cost-saving measures across ministries and institutions. This strategic approach aims to reduce unnecessary expenses and optimize operations, ultimately leading to substantial savings that can be redirected towards infrastructure development and other national priorities. Candra is optimistic about the potential positive impact of these initiatives under Prabowo’s leadership, foreseeing a more prosperous and optimistic future for Indonesia.
Reflecting on his experience at the panel discussion, Candra highlighted the importance of efficient resource management and fiscal responsibility in propelling Indonesia towards growth and development. The insights shared by President Prabowo during the discussion have inspired hope for a brighter future, setting a promising tone for Indonesia’s progress under his administration.
