This potential needs to be supported by energy readiness, computing capacity and human resource capabilities so that Indonesia is able to develop value-added industries.

"Combining minerals, energy and computing as one package to increase our competitiveness," he said.

Nezar added that the Ministry of Communication and Technology continues to strengthen AI governance through the preparation of a national road map, equal distribution of connectivity, opening up investment in digital infrastructure, talent development, and equal international partnerships.

This step is directed at building a national technology ecosystem that is sovereign, competitive and inclusive, while opening up new job and industrial opportunities.
