#TT5 Discussion by the Indonesian Ministry of National Development Planning: Indonesia’s Golden Period in 2045 and a One-Stop Platform

On 17 October 2019, the first day of IDN Media’s 5th-anniversary celebration, we had a session with the Indonesian Ministry of National Development Planning, Bambang Brodjonegoro. To be in accordance with our theme #IAMINCLUDED, he shared some insightful notions about the year of Indonesia’s demographic dividend: 2045. This discussion was expected to help evoke Timmys’ awareness to actively participate in making it come true. 

As one of the developing countries, Indonesia has a dream to be a country that is more prosperous in every aspect of life. Bambang Brodjonegoro started by explaining the economic strategic sectors in the current and future of Indonesia, namely manufacture, creative, and digital.

To be more specific, what was meant by the creative realm was something like art, such as music and film, while the digital one was an industry in which our country’s successful unicorns had taken their stand on. However, Bambang Brodjonegoro stated clearly, “Apparently, what’s happening at the moment is when we’re able to have at least two sectors at the same time. In media case, we call this occurrence as the ‘Internet of Things’ or what we understand as a one stop-platform. You’ll survive by providing not only one single kind of thing but many.”

 

Winston Utomo thought the same way. He declared, “I always believe that to keep ourselves alive, we will also need to have a mobile application where everybody can look for anything at a step.” He knew exactly that it would take time to really implement it, but IDN Media would disrupt itself to follow the futural preference of most people. 

In order to support the golden period of Indonesia in 2045, we believe IDN Media’s diverse products are, indeed, in line with the major point to make the race to 2045 successful. They include IDN Times, IDN Event, IDN Creative, IDN Creative Network, Yummy, Popmama, Popbela, GGWP, and Duniaku. By providing various platforms, we want to be one of the contributors to Indonesia’s golden period in 2045. 

This discussion about the golden period of Indonesia in 2045 surely will make every Timmy be certain that their roles are essential. Therefore, in #TT5 #IAMINCLUDED,  we want all Timmys to be involved in the process towards Indonesia 2045.
