"Today, Indonesia is ranked seventh in the world. Seventh place," Prabowo stated during the National Coordination Meeting (Rakornas) for the Regional Financial Access Acceleration Team (TPAKD) at Jiexpo, Jakarta, on Thursday (22/10/2026).

He highlighted the many small entrepreneurs capable of creating innovations.

"Entrepreneurs, coffee farmers have started exporting excellent coffees. We now have coffee seeds that can grow in marshlands and peatlands," he remarked.

Prabowo emphasized that Indonesia is a strong nation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are strong, we are rich. We are strong and we are wealthy," Prabowo declared.

On the other hand, he reminded all parties to manage Indonesia's natural resources for the benefit of the people.

The head of state also urged his administration to be willing to self-correct.

"This is our challenge. For too long, I apologize, we must be brave enough to self-correct. Until now, our economic philosophy has not aligned with the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia," he noted.
