G20 Bali Summit: What the World Says

The main message from Bali is that the G20 is an effective forum for global cooperation to deal with the world’s geopolitical and economic issues. Some are even calling the G20 the “new global governance”.

A year ago in November 2021, I wrote an article for this column titled “Jokowi On the Big Stage”, about President Joko Widodo’s emergence on the international scene at the start of his second term.

A year later in November 2022, President Jokowi’s international role culminated with the Group of 20 Bali Summit, which will be the benchmark for subsequent G20 summits.
