The Indonesian Cooperative Council (Dekopin) continues to innovate to advance the cooperative sector. One of the steps forward taken by Dekopin is to collaborate with PT Benua Integrasi Global (BIG) to advance cooperatives based on blockchain technology.
Dekopin General Chairman Nurdin Halid admitted that he was pleased with the cooperation that was officially signed in Batam, Riau Islands, in a series of events to commemorate the 77th National Cooperative Day last week.
“This will certainly strengthen our digital cooperatives,” said Nurdin in his statement, Sunday (14/7).
Meanwhile, BIG President Director Alexander Zulkarnain appreciated the cooperation between the two parties. According to him, advancing cooperatives must go hand in hand with digitalization.
“Cooperative principles are in line with digitalization. The basis is membership and networks. And we are ready to implement it,” said Alex.
“Yes, it’s time for cooperatives to enter the digital era. And we are advancing it with blockchain-based applications. This is a revolution,” added Alex.
Previously, Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto also said that cooperatives must adapt to face challenges in this digital era. That is why the cooperation between Dekopin and BIG is important and strategic. (Z-8)
