Development of Digital Economic and Financial Innovations in Papua

Development of Digital Economic and Financial Innovations in Papua

The development of the Digital Economy in Indonesia is very good and always increasing, and the government is targeting that by 2020 Indonesia will become the largest economic center in Southeast Asia. This is supported by the existence of a digital system that is related to the use of the internet, especially with the Palapa Ring project that was inaugurated by President Jokowi in 2019.

The potential that exists in Papua is huge, especially having the cultural diversity that is applied from what they produce, including local products. Local people or local craftsmen still market their products conventionally so that the market is still difficult, while those who market them online, on average, are still from outsiders or outsiders who take the potential.
.
To that end, the Bank Indonesia Representative Office of Papua Province encourages the development of innovations in the economy and digital finance in the Bumi Cenderawasih region. Papua Province Bank Indonesia Representative Naek Tigor Sinaga in Jayapura on Friday said the rapid flow of digitalization provided opportunities to create quality and inclusive economic growth.

"Digital innovation is able to strengthen the connectivity between economic agents, from the smallest to the largest, from individual consumers, MSMEs to large corporations," he said. According to Naek, domestic investment is one of the drivers of the economy. For foreign investment, his side cooperates with several bank offices abroad.

"This aims to bring in investors to see how Papua and existing goods can be included in trade shows such as handicrafts, so they are not too dependent on mining," he said.
.
He added that with new economic resources, it was hoped to create added value such as the tourism sector, where inevitably the mining trend would diminish and this was the driving force so that growth could occur to catch up with the existing backwardness.
