According to him, developing new strategies is one way to achieve Indonesia's Golden Age in 2045. For example, there is strategies in terms of business management and others. This includes making industrial areas greener, more modern, and more integrated. Budi explained that renewable energy is becoming one of the important focuses, especially considering the depletion of natural resources. Therefore, investment is needed in this field, both in terms of equipment and human resources (HR).
Therefore, UMM graduates must be able to meet the needs of these HR. So that the mission of Indonesia's Golden Age in 2045 can be achieved properly. Especially considering that UMM also has a Micro Hydro Power Plant (PLTMH) that has been established for a long time.
Meanwhile, Vice Chairman of the Muhammadiyah Regional Leadership (PWM) of East Java Dr. Syamsudin, M.Ag. also gave some advice. According to him, Indonesia has opened many businesses but lacks understanding of how to manage them, especially in the food sector. With the programs at UMM, namely the Center of Excellence (CoE), graduates are encouraged to have the right skills for the right companies.
"I believe that these programs will shape the students who are ready to work. This CoE can also be developed in other fields, especially those that are unique and interesting," he said.
