Mr Anderson Tanoto<\/a>, who was in Davos to participate in\u00a0a closed door session on circular economy<\/a>, said at the lunch dialogue:<\/p>\n

\n

United States Vice-President Joe Biden mentioned yesterday that we should move away from the concept of Short-Termism. I think that\u2019s what Indonesia requires now. If we look at Indonesia specifically on a quarterly-quarterly basis, it might be challenging. But if you look at Indonesia in the medium-to-long term perspective, I\u2019m extremely optimistic.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m optimistic. The group is optimistic. The people here are optimistic\u2026 I think Pak Anindya spoke a little bit about it. He said human resources for Indonesia is huge. Why? 50 per cent of Indonesia is still under 30 years old. Look at the panelists here today, the ministers and business leaders in Indonesia here are of very young age.<\/p>\n

The human capital of Indonesia is so invaluable. And the future of Indonesia can only be brighter moving ahead.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
