President Prabowo Subianto is confident that Indonesia can emerge\nfrom the current global crisis. He conveyed this conviction whilst\nattending the first anniversary celebration of Danantara Indonesia at\nWisma Danantara Indonesia in South Jakarta on Wednesday, 11 March\n2026.<\/p>\n
According to the head of state, the world is currently characterised\nby uncertainty, with crises occurring everywhere.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut brothers and sisters, crises always generate opportunities. A\ncrisis is a test, a crisis is a stepping stone. The strong will survive,\nthe weak will continue to suffer. This is a lesson from history,\u201d\nPrabowo said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am confident and believe that the Indonesian nation has been\nblessed with extraordinary natural wealth and we are capable of emerging\nfrom this crisis. We will emerge from this crisis even stronger,\u201d he\ncontinued.<\/p>\n
Prabowo characterised the crisis as a blessing in disguise. Whilst\nfull of difficulties and challenges, it compels the government to\naccelerate its positive initiatives.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe already have a food self-sufficiency plan, and alhamdulillah,\npart of it has been achieved. We already have the intention for energy\nself-sufficiency and we are confident we will achieve this within four\nyears,\u201d Prabowo said.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut this forces us to accelerate. We must speed up. We have many\nalternatives. We are confident we can address this problem. Many\ncountries are in more dire circumstances than we are,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, Prabowo noted that Indonesia possesses significant\nquantities of palm oil and other commodities such as cassava, maize, and\nsugar cane.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will have sufficient cassava. We can obtain fuel from maize and\nsugar cane. Brothers and sisters, we have geothermal reserves that are\nvery large\u2014if I am not mistaken, the second largest reserves in the\nworld\u2014which have not been fully exploited,\u201d Prabowo said.<\/p>\n
\u201cBrothers and sisters, we will carry out electrification and\nrenewable energy from solar power. In the shortest possible time, we\nwill build 100 gigawatts. This is already my order; this is already my\ndecision. And we will prove to the world that we are faster and more\neffective in this matter,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/prabowo-reveals-global-crisis-occurring-everywhere-the-strong-will-survive-1773233620", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
