Recently Inaugurated as the Governor of Riau Islands, Here's Ansar Ahmad-Marlin's Main Focus

TRIBUNBATAM.id, BATAM - Governor of Riau Islands (Kepri) Ansar Ahmad and Deputy Governor Marlin Agustina will move quickly to complete a number of work priorities.

One of them is to immediately restore the economy in the Riau Islands region.

The handling of the coronavirus pandemic will be more serious, so that economic and social activities run well. 

"I, together with the Deputy Governor and all stakeholders in the Riau Islands, will try as soon as possible to make economic recovery efforts," said Ansar in a written statement, Friday (26/2/2021). 

Ansar said about two things that will be the main focus. 

First, handling Covid-19 and secondly economic recovery.

According to Ansar, Kepri once achieved economic growth of up to 8 percent, with Batam that being the economic locomotive.

However, due to the pandemic, most of Riau Islands' economic activities, which are export-oriented and tourism, have experienced a decline.

Even the decline in economic growth is considered quite significant. 

To restore the economy, according to Ansar, among others, by building a good bureaucratic service subsystem.

His party will also provide relaxation and incentives for investors in Riau Islands.

In addition, there will be special attention for micro, small and medium enterprises (UMKMs).

There will be UMKM partnership program with various businesses, including medium and large businesses. Everything will be done intensively. 

After that, the next priorities are security and culture.

According to Ansar, because Kepri is a border area, his party will focus on protecting this area from foreign parties.

"Culture will be a motivating factor in building the Riau Islands in the future," said Ansar. (*)
