“The discussion lasted approximately two hours, exceeding the one hour originally scheduled, as it was very fruitful, very productive,” Rosan said in a press statement delivered to media representatives following the meeting.

During the session, President Prabowo outlined the direction of Indonesia’s national economic policy, measures to strengthen the investment climate, and the Government’s commitment to maintaining stability and legal certainty. The dialogue was followed by one-on-one discussions with each corporate leader to explore further cooperation opportunities.

Rosan noted that the presence of Danantara received positive appreciation from global investors, viewing it as a potential strategic local partner in various investment schemes, both in Indonesia and globally.
