Acting Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Erick Thohir announced a collaboration between the government and OceanX, a leading marine research initiative, during the Indonesia Night event at the OceanXplorer research vessel in Dubai on Thursday (30/11/23). OceanX, founded by Mark Dalio and Ray Dalio, the visionaries behind Bridgewater Associates, will engage in collaborative research encompassing various critical aspects of ocean exploration. Topics include marine biodiversity, blue carbon, fish stock assessment, earthquake mapping, and deep-sea exploration. The minister expressed optimism that this collaboration would not only unlock Indonesia's vast marine potential but also contribute to building human resource capacity and fostering public awareness of the ocean's significance. "As part of this initiative, we sent 15 students from the Azores to Malta to actively participate in the OceanX Young Explorer Program. Furthermore, we organized public lectures at renowned institutions, including the  Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), the University of Indonesia (UI), and the Sepuluh November Institute of Technology (ITS)," he said. He concluded with a vision for Indonesia's future, saying, "With this strategy, we aspire to transform into a high-income country, positioning ourselves among the world's top five economies by 2045. Hence, we extend an invitation to all partners to join us on this transformative journey towards realizing our 2045 vision of a Golden Indonesia." (ar/inp/pr/nm)
