inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. During the launch of BP Danantara, Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto emphasized the principle of transparency and prudence in its management.

Prabowo explained that the formation of Danantara marks a new era for State-owned Enterprises (BUMN), which is now no longer just a business entity but a national asset that will become an agent of development and fundamental growth for economic growth and people's welfare.

"Therefore, BUMN must operate with high standards, the best governance. BUMN must prioritize innovation, big ideas, transparency, technological progress, while maintaining discipline, prudence and commitment to good governance and responsible management," Prabowo said.

Prabowo said his government had proven its commitment to managing state assets with strict financial discipline and responsible governance in the first 100 days of work.

"We managed to secure more than IDR 300 trillion, almost 20 billion US dollars in state savings. Funds that were previously hampered by inefficiency, corruption, and poorly targeted spending," Prabowo said.

Prabowo also emphasized that he was determined to build a clean government free from corruption. "I will fight corruption as hard as I can and with all the energy and effort I can muster without discrimination."

The president explained that the funds that were previously not targeted and inefficient can now be managed by Danantara Indonesia and can be invested in 20 or more national projects as part of industrialization that can create jobs domestically.

Prabowo also said that Danantara must be managed as well as possible with great care, and transparently as Danantara was established for the next generation of Indonesia.

"Danantara Indonesia is for our children and grandchildren. Danantara Indonesia must be managed as well as possible with great care, with great transparency, with mutual supervision. It must be auditable at any time by anyone, as it belongs to our children and grandchildren, belongs to the next generation of our nation," said Prabowo.
