JAKARTA, KOMPAS - Indonesia needs to implement an inclusive and sustainable economic recovery program not only to avoid a recession. Therefore, post-Covid-19 economic recovery efforts must be also directed to aspects based on technology and the environment.
In reality, the government must also give a clear direction in its economic recovery agenda in order to help attract investment while at the same time growing new sectors that can support the economy. The new sectors should be created through transformation to deal with the massive disruption caused by Covid-19.
