Surya Pradana Adipatiarga, a politician and entrepreneur from Gresik, expressed his hope that the government would care more about retailers and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Surya said that retailers and MSMEs are one of the important pillars of the economy for the country's economic growth. However, they are often neglected by the government in terms of support and protection.
Surya also highlighted the bureaucratic problems that hinder the development of retailers and MSMEs. The complicated licensing process and high costs, according to him, are the main obstacles for small entrepreneurs. With friendlier regulations and incentives provided by the government, Surya is confident that retailers and MSMEs can grow and develop better.
In addition, Surya also hopes that the government can provide training and assistance to small business actors. With increased skills and knowledge, retailers and MSMEs will be able to compete better in an increasingly competitive market. Support from the government is also expected to expand the market and increase the competitiveness of local products. Thus, retailers and MSMEs can make a greater contribution to the country's economic growth.
