Our world competitiveness ranking has risen: Eddy Wardoyo

These are exciting times for Indonesia. For starters, the monumental shift of its capital from Jakarta to Nusantara, a $ 30-billion investment testament to writing a new chapter with innovation and sustainable development. Poised at the brink of transformative growth, the country’s dynamic construction and infrastructure landscape is set to unfold a vista of opportunity. Further, Indonesia is on the cusp of channelling substantial investments, earmarking a staggering $ 50 billion for bilateral trade relations. Little wonder then, that His Excellency Eddy Wardoyo, the Consul General of the Republic of Indonesia in Mumbai, exuded a quiet confidence when he met FALGUNI PADODE, Group Managing Editor, in his office. Having navigated the corridors of policy analysis during his tenure in Delhi from 2012 to 2016, the Consul General’s focus is now different. “Here in Mumbai,” he shared with a chuckle, “I look at the implementation of policy!”

As we explored the myriad opportunities Indonesia presents in construction and infrastructure, it became abundantly clear that his guidance serves as a beacon, beckoning Indian investors to join in the nation’s journey of development.
