Our world competitiveness ranking has risen: Eddy Wardoyo

These are exciting times for Indonesia. For starters, the monumental shift of its capital from Jakarta to Nusantara, a $ 30-billion investment testament to writing a new chapter with innovation and sustainable development. Poised at the brink of transformative growth, the country’s dynamic construction and infrastructure landscape is set to unfold a vista of opportunity. Further, Indonesia is on the cusp of channelling substantial investments, earmarking a staggering $ 50 billion for bilateral trade relations. Little wonder then, that His Excellency Eddy Wardoyo, the Consul General of the Republic of Indonesia in Mumbai, exuded a quiet confidence when he met FALGUNI PADODE, Group Managing Editor, in his office.
