The new Indonesian government led by President Prabowo Subianto and Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka is now in the public spotlight. After officially taking office, the pair brings a grand vision to drive significant changes for the national economy over the next few years.

One of the main promises made by Prabowo and Gibran is the ambition to achieve 8 percent economic growth. This figure is considered quite high and challenging given the current uncertain global economic conditions. The government has begun drafting various strategies to realize this target.

In an effort to achieve this growth target, the government has introduced a new institution called Danantara. This institution is expected to be able to manage state assets more efficiently and attract foreign investment into the country. The presence of Danantara has become one of the key instruments awaited by market players and the wider community.

the public now has high hopes that the steps taken by the government will have a tangible impact on the welfare of the people. Many parties are waiting to see how these economic policies will be implemented technically in the field in the near future.

Overall, the journey of the Prabowo-Gibran administration has just begun. Success in achieving economic growth targets will depend heavily on the synergy between government policies, political stability, and the support of all elements of Indonesian society.
