Moreover, amid the world's polarization, Indonesia takes a position as a trusted partner that is free to determine its national interests and actively builds productive dialogue with various parties.
"This principle is what makes Indonesia respected in various international forums," he continued.
He added Indonesia's presence on the global stage is not just to voice national interests, but also to bring ideas and solutions that benefit everyone. In a world that continues to face uncertainty, Indonesia presents itself as a dialogue partner capable of bridging interests.
He asserted that the Jakarta Government has provided free health services to its residents. This free service is available in 44 sub-districts. His party also assists the community by distributing various forms of aid.
"Thus, the health issue that was the main focus in the Communication and Digital Minister's speech has been implemented by the Jakarta Government," he added.
On this National Awakening Day celebration, he also invited all ranks of the Jakarta Government and the public to keep upholding the spirit of awakening and work together to realize a stronger, fairer, and more civilized Indonesia.
