By 2030, ASEAN is predicted to become the fourth largest economic power in the world. Therefore, it is proper for business people in Qatar to seriously consider ASEAN," said Ridwan in a written statement from the Indonesian Embassy in Doha, Friday.  In 2020, the trade volume between Qatar and ASEAN countries will reach 9 billion US dollars (around Rp. 129.3 trillion).  Qatar is also an important investor for ASEAN countries, especially in the fields of energy, finance, property, telecommunications, health, and so on.  In the social sector, currently, there are around 300,000 citizens from ASEAN living and working in Qatar. The majority of them are from the Philippines, Indonesia, and Thailand.  So far, Lulu Hypermarket has become one of the largest shopping centers to accommodate products from ASEAN countries. From Indonesia, for example, products such as food seasonings, fruits, instant noodles, or sauces have long entered Lulu.  "In the future, the opportunity for Lulu and ASEAN countries to cooperate is still very open. Moreover, products from ASEAN countries have so far been in great demand by the people of the Middle East. However, the promotion of products from ASEAN still needs to be improved, especially for agricultural products," said Ridwan.  The opening of the ASEAN Festival was held lively. Besides Lulu Hypermarket officials such as Lulu Group International Cooperation Director Muhammad Atlaf, ambassadors from ASEAN member countries, Australia, South Korea, and China were also present.  The event also featured arts, clothing, and special foods from Indonesia and from other ASEAN countries.

In his speech entitled "Supporting True Democracy for a Better Future for Humanity", the member of the Government Advisory Council or coordinating ministerial level said that democracy is a universally agreed upon human value.  "Democracy is not a special right of a particular country, but the right of all people around the world," he said, Thursday (9/12).  Whether a country is democratic or not, continued Wang, the people of that country will decide for themselves.  According to him, one country cannot force another country to implement the democracy that applies in its country.  For this reason, the country is very confident in implementing democracy in accordance with the aspirations of its people.  "And we really respect democracy in other countries. We will not export our democracy. We are ready to dialogue and exchange ideas with other countries according to the principle of equality," he said.
