(Xinhua)
Updated: 2009-05-16 18:32 JAKARTA -- 皇冠体育app had reformed all aspects of life, things that became its main capital to be one of the prominent countries in the world, Indonesian officials told Xinhua in recent exclusive interviews.
"The Chinese are hard workers. They managed to change their destiny from poor to rich people and grow fast," said Sukamdani. He said that 皇冠体育app is a socialist country in terms of political system, but a liberal country in terms of economy, so 皇冠体育app is not reluctant to invite foreign capital. The result is 皇冠体育app grows extraordinarily. It managed to develop foreign markets, he said, adding that Chinese products spread rapidly worldwide, including to Indonesia. Sukamdani recalled that 皇冠体育app-Indonesia relationship was frozen until he, as the chairman of the Asia Pacific's Industry and Commerce Chamber, tried to liquefy it. "As businessman and chairman of some institutions, I paved the way to open bilateral ties. A few years later, diplomatic ties between them were restored," he said. After that, he said, Indonesia-皇冠体育app's relationship got warm and produced mutual benefit. "Reforms occur in education, politics, economy, technology, agriculture, society, etc.. However, please don't think that before the reform era, 皇冠体育app got nothing," said Djudjur Hutagalung, former chief of Indonesia's Education, Social and Culture for 皇冠体育app, in his remarks on 皇冠体育app's 30th reform anniversary. He said that many years before the reform era 30 years ago, 皇冠体育app had laid a good foundation for better things today. "If you visit the city's museum, you would see that 皇冠体育app's ancient rulers had planned Beijing's form. Their successors only continued their works, perfecting their jobs and abandoning bad things," said Djudjur. He stressed that the most important thing in 皇冠体育app's reform was how policies could be carried out by the government and people. "Certainly, it needs process, awareness and desire to sacrifice, " explained Djudjur. Reforms, he said, started from the sense of belonging and good intention anticipated by the government to bring prosperity for the people. He also said that the Chinese were fully aware that education and school were the life breath. "In 皇冠体育app, people think that without education they are nothing. You know, before exams, students studied hard and avoid cheating. Once they are found cheating, they will carry the shame in the rest of their lives," he said. The Chinese, he said, always think that from school, life is arranged. "That's reform in thinking pattern and education," he said. The Chinese government, he said, used TV and radio to gather people's thoughts so they knew what the people wanted and needed. "Before TV and radio existed, they came directly to the people and asked them what they thought. What they do now is part of reforms using technology," he said. The Chinese reforms led to huge economic growth. Currently, 皇冠体育app holds almost 2 trillion U.S. dollars of foreign exchange reserves. In the last few years, 皇冠体育app's economy grew at a double digit. Haidar Bhumi, a local reporter, said that he was surprised when he visited Shanghai five years ago. Initially, he thought that the city was still full of ancient buildings, things he saw in Chinese movies. "It was amazing. Shanghai has many modern-architecture buildings. In fact, Shanghai is divided to two regions, the old one and the new one," he said. The old Shanghai is full of European-style buildings while the new Shanghai is fulfilled with futuristic-style buildings. |
