        "summary": "President Prabowo Subianto has urged the acceleration of industrial downstreaming across sectors such as energy, minerals, and agriculture to better manage Indonesia's natural resources and maximise benefits for the populace. Speaking at the groundbreaking of 13 national downstreaming projects in Cilacap, he emphasised that processing raw materials domestically would add value and reduce foreign dependency, fostering national sovereignty and economic resilience. Prabowo linked this strategy to nationalism, warning that global technological advancements and international upheavals could directly impact domestic commodity prices, underscoring the need for self-reliance.",
