PDI Perjuangan Secretary-General Hasto Kristiyanto has said his party\nis promoting the concept of Indonesianomics as the guiding principle for\nIndonesia\u2019s economic development under President Prabowo Subianto going\nforward.<\/p>\n
The statement was made by Hasto in response to Prabowo\u2019s state\naddress during the plenary session on the 2027 State Budget Financial\nNote at the parliamentary complex on Friday (14\/8).<\/p>\n
Hasto believes that Indonesia\u2019s economic concept has in fact already\nbeen formulated through Pancasila, the 1945 Constitution, and the\nPlanned Universal National Development Pattern.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe idea of a just, prosperous and sovereign nation is an idea born\nof an independent Indonesia, not the idea of any individual. That\nstrength lies in the people\u2019s production, not in the oligarchy,\u201d Hasto\nsaid after the 81st Independence Day commemoration ceremony at the PDIP\nSchool on Monday (17\/8).<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, on behalf of PDIP, Hasto expressed gratitude for the\npresident\u2019s statement that his administration is now applying the\neconomic concept of Marhaenism.<\/p>\n
Marhaenism has long been identified with PDIP because it was\nconceived by Indonesia\u2019s first president and independence proclaimer,\nSukarno (Bung Karno).<\/p>\n
Bung Karno is the father of PDIP Chairwoman Megawati\nSoekarnoputri.<\/p>\n
According to Hasto, Marhaenism essentially emphasises the sovereignty\nof the people, particularly farmers and small workers. Therefore, if\nPrabowonomics adopts the spirit of Marhaenism, its main indicator must\nbe visible in the strengthening of the people\u2019s means of production.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen we proclaim Marhaenism, then how can farmers be sovereign, how\ncan farmers obtain land as their means of production, obtain\nagricultural mechanisation to improve the quality of their products,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n
In his address, Prabowo joked that his economic thinking, which has\nso far been called Prabowonomics, is actually Marhaenism, the thinking\nof Bung Karno.<\/p>\n
For that reason, Prabowo believes it would be difficult for PDIP not\nto support him, because the party is closely associated with Bung\nKarno\u2019s thinking. He also thanked PDIP in this regard, while saying his\npolicies would be difficult for PDIP not to support.<\/p>\n
\u201cI thank you, and special thanks once again to PDIP,\u201d Prabowo\nsaid.<\/p>\n
\u201cActually this is not Prabowonomics, this is Marhaenism, PDIP would\nfind it hard not to support this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
This is not the first time Prabowo has thanked PDIP. On previous\noccasions, he has also praised the political stance of PDIP, which so\nfar remains outside the large coalition supporting the Prabowo-Gibran\nadministration.<\/p>\n
At the same time, Prabowo said his government still needs criticism,\nbut on the other hand the government also needs to work quickly for the\npeople.<\/p>\n
He said the government and the House of Representatives (DPR) have\nnow been working in good synergy. Prabowo expressed his gratitude for\nthat.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am grateful that there is now synergistic cooperation between the\ngovernment and the DPR. This does not mean there is no democracy; we\nmust have democracy, we must be supervised, we must be criticised. But\nwe must work quickly for our people,\u201d Prabowo said.<\/p>\n
Prabowo also stated that his government will always work optimally\nfor the prosperity of the Indonesian people.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/prabowos-state-address-mentions-marhaenism-pdip-promotes-indonesianomics-1787039657", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
