First, in terms of economic benefit, Freeport argued that GOI will risk receiving
less state revenue—or worse, to suffer financial loss—if the smelter is continued
to be built. Notwithstanding that, Freeport will keep their promise to build the
smelter if they are given the permit to operate until 2041. Second, all participants
basically agreed that the main challenge for Indonesia in the future is to create a
friendly business climate.

Summary of Event:
On 7 November 2017, INADIS in partnership with the Embassy of Kingdom of
Belgium to the Republic of Indonesia organized a seminar with the theme of
discussing the Millennial generation potential on an international scale. The
seminar was also conducted in conjunction with the ongoing Europalia Arts
The seminar took place only a couple of weeks after the official opening of the
Europalia Arts Festival Indonesia 2017 by HE Vice President Jusuf Kalla and HM
King Philippe. Europalia is a 3-month, 300-program festival held in Belgium
from 10 October 2017 until 21 January 2018 and dedicated exclusively to the
invited country’s culture and arts. Coincidentally this year, the festival
specifically highlights Indonesian culture and arts.
Also in this part, Melani Budianta, a Professor of Literature Studies at FIB UI,
recounted her experience of introducing Indonesian literature to Belgian
readers during the festival in October. An interesting story comes from a young
Indonesian author named Margareta Astaman, who is also a fruit trader. “Apart
from bringing her books, she also brought coconuts, salak, mangosteen, and
some other local fruits along with her. If you see, these fruits can actually be an
alternative way to open up more interactions with the Belgians.” The story also
suggested that, in her opinion, Millennials may have a tendency to be more
creative and multi-tasking.
The moderator of the seminar, Amira Waworuntu, Executive Director of INADIS,
summed up the fact that critical thinking becomes the underlined theme. The
fact that Millennials are more open towards (access of) information (should) also
make them be able to sharpen their minds when coming across such
information. All should be taken with a grain of salt. Before diving into a certain
issue; first we must step back and assess the issue at hand critically, not
forgetting to include previous generations as our mentors.
Last but not the least, the participants were entertained with a special
performance by Svara Samsara, an Indonesian percussion group, which blend
together traditional and contemporary music and art through their

Participants:
Friendly bilateral ties between Jordan and Indonesia have been quite strong since the
1950s. This special friendship from Jordan’s leadership has continued regardless of who
is at the helm in Indonesia. As the Ambassador puts it “Our relationship is strategic and
not personal.” A keyword that keeps on popping up during the interview was
“complimentary”, both in political and economic coordination. For example, Jordan is
able to produce massive amounts of phosphate, fertilizers and industrial salt; things that
Indonesia minimally produces independently. On the other hand, Jordan’s topography is
lacking in trees and sea commodities. Therefore, Indonesia steps in with its plywood
and fishery export. All this takes place without being at the expense of local industries
in both countries. With complimentary economic interactions, both countries are able
to sustain local businesses, while also contributing to the international exchange of
goods. “Our relationship with Indonesia will always be a win-win situation and the sky is
the limit for our cooperation.”
When it comes to politics, in 2014 both countries signed an MOU for political
consultation which took place on the sidelines of His Majesty King Abdullah II’s visit to
our country. In terms of security, a crucial agenda mentioned by Mr. Al Hadid was the
combating of global terrorism. In addition to top-tier interactions, people-to-people
relations are also encouraged through higher education, tourism and trade. “We
encourage more students to come and study in Jordan.”
When asked about challenges in doing business with Indonesia, Mr. Al Hadid instead
praised the Widodo administration in overcoming bureaucracy and legislative hurdles.
“A lot has been done by the Indonesian government to find solutions; the business
community is happy that the current administration is working to boost investment.”
