REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Candidate for Indonesian Vice President number 02 Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno, if elected with Prabowo Subianto, promised to form a national OK OCE (One District / City One Center Entrepreneurship). The program was first introduced by Sandiaga during his campaign in Jakarta gubernatorial election 2017 along with Anies Baswedan.
"So all of them will be trained in managing their businesses," the former deputy governor of Jakarta said in a written statement received in Jakarta on Wednesday.
Participants of the OK OCE movement will be given direction in registration, training, mentoring, licensing, marketing, financial reporting and providing capital, so that their businesses can advance to absorb more employment, he said. This was conveyed by Sandiaga when he visited the center of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (UMKM) Mochi Momi in the Perum Bumi Pesona Cianjur, West Java, Wednesday.

At the location, small industry players managed by mothers and millennials, from the sandal industry to the typical Cianjur brownies tauco had also gathered.
"I was with the MPR Chair, Zulkifli Hasan, and the Secretary General of PAN, Eddy Suparno. I will be traveling to West Java for four days. I want to capture the aspirations, especially over employment and the price of basic necessities. Now, the complaints are the same, prices are rising and it is difficult to find work," said Sandiaga.
The vice presidential candidate carried by the Gerindra party, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), the National Mandate Party (PAN) and the Democrats asked the SMEs not to give up and to continue to develop their businesses.
"I, along with Prabowo Subianto, will create jobs and prices for basic needs that are affordable and stable. I hope Mochi Momi can send their mochi to Taiwan and even South Korea, as well as taucho brownies and other efforts," said Sandiaga.
