Destry Damayanti Promotes 'Sinergi Merah Putih' to Strengthen Bank Indonesia
Senior Deputy Governor of Bank Indonesia, Destry Damayanti, has just presented her strategic vision for strengthening the central bank institution. She emphasized the importance of the 'Sinergi Merah Putih' (Red and White Synergy) concept as the primary foundation for maintaining national economic stability amidst increasingly dynamic global challenges.
In her presentation, Destry explained that this synergy involves close collaboration between Bank Indonesia, the government, and various stakeholders in the financial sector. The main focus is to create monetary policies that are not only effective but also capable of supporting inclusive economic growth for all Indonesian people.
In addition to internal collaboration, Destry also highlighted the importance of payment system digitalization. According to her, technological innovation is the key to ensuring Indonesia remains competitive in the international market. She is committed to continuing to encourage the development of digital financial infrastructure that is secure, efficient, and accessible to small and medium-sized business owners.
This step is expected to better maintain the rupiah exchange rate and control inflation. By strengthening inter-institutional coordination, Bank Indonesia is optimistic that it can face global economic uncertainty and keep the public's purchasing power stable.
In closing, Destry asserted that the success of Indonesia's economy depends heavily on the unity and cooperation of all parties. Through Sinergi Merah Putih, Bank Indonesia is determined to continue being a primary pillar in realizing a resilient and sustainable national economy in the future.
