Round Two of Candidate Debate

In this round, the questions focused on economic policy. In investment regulation, unemployment and poverty, Megawati suggests that need revision on regulation; establish more infrastructures on Indonesia especially on the east. Susilo has another opinion, he would like to give easier chance for local investor, focus on agriculture and manufacture industries which could hire more employees, he also thinks that to difficult to change the outsourcing policy and optimize that could handled by local government, employer and employed which succeed in Batam . Jusuf Kalla prefer to improve the economic regulation on outsourcing policy, this policy not protect the workers at all.

When moderator ask about fuel subsidize, Susilo, Megawati and Kalla agreed that need to help people keep survive with more subsidize. The other side, government should use another technology like; gas, bio-ethanol, etc. So, where the money come from to implement this policy?? Mega thinks that if we can manage our natural resource like oil, gas mining and ocean in a good way, we will have enough money. SBY and JK have same opinion, efficiency on government, more entrepreneur, and more skilled worker.

In my opinion, Susilo always answer which safety mode. Not detailed in which side he will stand. Mega and Kalla has better program, revision in outsourcing in pretty well needed to give certainty and safety for workers. You can imagine if every one only works for years with a contract (not permanent) with short payment, a company could easily terminate them. And when there age increase, there is no more place for them. We need a leader who could conduct a new orchestra, new rule model, new improvement and effective result.
