The Values 20 Group (V20) will encourage the importance of equitable economic recovery in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. Co-Sherpa V20 2022 Alissa Wahid said, in the midst of a pandemic, there is a risk of a bigger gap in the economic recovery process. So it is important for countries to include moral values in the policy-making process in the context of economic recovery. For example, in the Indonesian context, these values are summarized in Pancasila. "We do have Pancasila, where Pancasila conveys values as a nation.
Can it really be the axis when carrying out the life of the nation and state?" Alissa said in an online interview, Monday (1/24/2022). "For example, what development policies are based on that, because of the high inequality in Indonesia, and in the current pandemic situation with the potential for post-pandemic recovery, quality of life conditions can lead to inequality. bigger," he said. Alissa explained, in the midst of a pandemic, groups of women and children are getting a bigger burden. This is because women are at risk of falling into conditions of extreme poverty due to losing their jobs. While on the other hand, around 11,000 children have lost their parents due to the pandemic. Thus, the policy formulation process should not override these conditions. "Meanwhile, if we are not careful, the economic recovery process could be even more difficult for industry and corporations, with the assumption that corporations bring more direct benefits to the economy," said Alissa.
As for the Co-Sherpa V20 2022, Makarim Wibisono said, the V20 serves to give confidence to the leaders of the G20 countries to involve all parties and be inclusive. Thus, policies will be based on values and human relationships. So how do we think about public policy, so that apart from targeting clear policies, we also think about the impact on humans. This is a factor that has been carefully developed," said Makarim.
