President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo Tuesday (09/17) ordered the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KADIN) members to resolve the problems by themselves.

“This is not a political organization, but an entrepreneurial organization,” President Jokowi said after the Inauguration of the Indonesia Islamic Financial Center Area and the FIBA ​​Indonesia Office at Danareksa Tower, Jakarta.

The Head of State also underscored that during his ten years of leadership, he had good relations with the KADIN heads and officials.

“I have attended the KADIN events more than once, be it during the tenure of Mr. Suryo Bambang, Mr. Rosan Roeslani, Mr. Arsjad, or Mr. Anin, all of them,” he added.

The President also stated that he was open to receiving the KADIN stakeholders in his office.

“I am open to meet anyone. No problem. Again, please resolve such problems within, don’t push the hot potato to me,” President Jokowi remarked. (TGH/ABD) (GWH/LW)
