Sandiaga Uno’s Economic Vision for Indonesia: Job Creation and Affordability for All

Fellowship Agenda

Mr. Sandiaga ‘Sandi’ Uno, a man of vision, brings a spirit of innovation and collaboration to Indonesia's economy. Mr. Sandiaga’s agenda for his term of office as Distinguished Fellow will focus on articulating the innovative economic concept known as Sandinomics. Sandinomics is not merely a series of policies, it reflects a holistic vision for economic well-being consisting of two main pillars: Maintaining Price Stability and Creating Jobs on a broad scale.

As the Deputy Governor of Jakarta (2017 – 2018) and later the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (2020 – current), Sandiaga's journey in embracing the core pillars of his economics—maintaining price stability and creating jobs—is an inspiring tale of collaboration.

As the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, Sandiaga demonstrated his commitment to public-private sector partnerships by inviting business leaders, creative minds, and those in the tourism industry to work together to create new value. By building an inclusive and innovative ecosystem, Sandiaga Uno elevated Indonesia's creative economy and tourism industry to new heights.

Through the OK OCE program, Sandiaga opened doors for small traders and entrepreneurs to access a broader market. This step not only created new job opportunities but also paved the way for creativity and innovation to flourish in the SME sector.

In an effort to optimize the tourism sector, Sandiaga built a collaborative network between the government, business stakeholders, and the community. This initiative not only supported the growth of the tourism industry but also created new job opportunities in various related sectors such as hospitality, restaurants, and tourism services.

Members of the public are cordially invited to hear how such initiatives inspired by the inclusive and innovative economic vision of Sandinomics can unlock a vast potential blue ocean in the employment sector while maintaining price stability. Our Distinguished Fellow, Sandiaga Uno, will reinforce the belief that close collaboration with the government and private sector is the key to creating a brighter and more competitive economic future for Indonesia.
