Indonesia`s creative industry is considered to have the potentials to contribute to national economic growth, according to Head of Research and Industry Development of Industry Ministry Haris Munandar.
“Currently, the contribution of t creative industries is still relatively small, which is 7 percent of the national industrial growth of 18-20 per cent, but they have great potentials,” Haris said in Jakarta, Friday, October 14, 2016.
Haris added that the potential can be seen from the various opportunities to develop creative industries in Indonesia, among them an increasing number of middle class Indonesia as potential consumers of creative products.
“In recent years, the middle class is growing rapidly. This becomes a great opportunity,” said Haris.
In addition, socio-cultural diversity and natural resources of Indonesia can inspire creative industries to continue to innovate.
