Indonesia Can Advance from Singapore and China Thanks to Blockchain
The development of blockchain technology in Indonesia has received a positive response, although initially regarded as an industry threat and financial system stability. Currently the technology that adopts decentralized system is precisely didaulat as industrial technology of the future.
In fact, one of Blockchain Zoo's Indonesia blockchain technology development companies became the first IT Consultant company in ASEAN to be listed on 'Gartner' list.
Responding to the role of blockchain technology in Indonesia, the Blockchain Indonesia Association (ABI) held a forum titled 'Block Jakarta'.
Pandu Sastrowardoyo as the Secretary General of ABI who is also Chairwoman of Blockchain Zoo claims that blockchain technology is very useful and can make institutions or agencies in Indonesia can synergize well. Can even beat the Singapore government system and China.
"Blockchain technology can make agencies or agencies work together well. Imagine if this technology is also synergized with the government sector that involves many parties and many agenda, would be very useful, "said Pandu in Block Jakarta forum, recently.
He also compared Singapore with Indonesia related regional autonomy system in both countries. Regional autonomy in Indonesia that moves each may be able to run simultaneously thanks to blockchain technology.
"Unlike Singapore, Indonesia has its own regional autonomy, and all have a desire to be better but it is difficult to work with IT data centralization today. With blockchain technology, it certainly can be overcome, "said the woman graduated from Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB).
On the other hand, Pandu continued, Indonesia still has not many standard systems, such as hospitals whose data are centralized in government. This is influenced by the high demand for technology for that and the decentralization or regional autonomy system.
"That's why we are deeming the blockchain technology is very necessary in the government sector, with the blockchain, I am optimistic that Indonesia can pass through Singapore and even China," he concluded.
