Generally speaking, President Widodo’s instructions break down into four strategic directions which have been grouped into four strategic sectors. Subsequently, said strategic directions and each relevant sector will encompass more specific strategic initiatives that will be implemented in the near future.
- During the formulation of these strategic initiatives, the Ministry has sought to cover various fields comprehensively as a part of efforts to open up space for stakeholders, hopefully encouraging them to participate in Indonesia's digital transformation. Currently, over 100 initiatives are set for implementation as a part of efforts to realize the digital modernization of Indonesia. (KOMINFO)
