President Prabowo Subianto has instructed the directors and commissioners of state-owned banks within the Himpunan Bank Milik Negara (Himbara) group to prioritize the welfare of the Indonesian people alongside profitability. The directive emphasizes a broader social responsibility for these banks, moving beyond purely financial gains. While details of the instruction remain limited, it signals a potential shift in the operational focus of state-owned banking institutions. This instruction was delivered directly to bank leadership during a recent meeting with the President. The move suggests a commitment to inclusive economic growth and ensuring banking services benefit a wider segment of the population. Further details regarding implementation and specific targets are expected to be released in the coming weeks. This directive reflects Prabowo’s administration’s focus on social impact alongside economic development.
