National Police and Bhayangkari pledge support for MSME development
Jakarta (ANTARA) - The National Police Chief, General Listyo Sigit Prabowo, and the Bhayangkari leadership have affirmed their continued support for the business development of micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) players.
Listyo said the support must be given because the MSME sector is one of the factors capable of driving the community’s economy.
He made the statement when he and the General Chairwoman of Bhayangkari, Juliati Sigit Prabowo, inspected the Bhayangkari Nusantara Creative Bazaar 2026 at the Jakarta Convention Center in Senayan, Central Jakarta, on Friday (24/7).
“This bazaar is tangible proof that the National Police and Bhayangkari share the same spirit in supporting the strengthening of MSMEs,” Listyo said, as quoted from an official National Police press release received in Jakarta.
Listyo added that the event organised by Bhayangkari is also expected to serve as an opportunity for MSME players to promote their products in pursuit of a wider market share.
Meanwhile, Juliati expressed hope that the bazaar would not merely be used by MSME players as a product promotion event.
“We hope this activity will not only be a space for introducing products, but will also be able to drive the wheels of the economy, open up new business opportunities, and foster pride and love among the public for outstanding domestic products,” she said.
For context, the Bhayangkari Nusantara Creative Bazaar 2026 is being held from 21 to 25 July 2026 to commemorate the 74th Bhayangkari Unity of Movement Day.
Carrying the theme “Nusantara Empowered, Bhayangkari Creative”, the event involves 374 participants with a total of 727 stalls, comprising 531 fashion stalls, 152 culinary stalls, and 44 shared kitchen stalls.
A wide variety of products are on display at the bazaar, ranging from batik, woven fabrics, songket, ulos, kebaya, bags, accessories, jewellery, traditional textiles, regional handicrafts, household goods and cosmetics, to various culinary specialities and beverages from across the archipelago.
Beyond the product exhibition, the programme also features six talk show sessions discussing MSME development, the use of technology and artificial intelligence for promotion, business legality, intellectual property rights, and capacity building for business players.
The cultural flavour of the archipelago is also presented through 29 art, dance and music performances, fashion shows, as well as parades of traditional textiles and outstanding Bhayangkari MSME products.
