Perusahaan Umum Jaminan Kredit Indonesia (Perum Jamkrindo) Pekanbaru held a seminar titled "Guarantee Education" for economics students from the University of Riau on Monday (October 23).
The seminar was interactive, with students asking various questions. Especially since the government is currently encouraging students to venture into entrepreneurship.
"Our government is intensifying the real sector in society. As a guarantee company, we certainly have a responsibility to be involved," explained Ilham Prasojo, Head of Jamkrindo Pekanbaru Branch.
In front of the students, he explained the legal basis and the services provided by Jamkrindo to the public.
"Financial inclusion was lively yesterday. This is because most of the participants' parents are traders, so many of them want to know about our products," he said to Tribun on Wednesday (October 25).
The event lasted for two hours, and Ilham appreciated the enthusiasm and energy of the students.
"Therefore, we plan to continue activities like this in the future," he added.
On this occasion, Ilham also mentioned that they are accelerating surety bond services in the region.
"Since, at the end of this year, the government is focusing more on completing the programs that have been budgeted. So, we need to maximize this opportunity," he stated.
As for other guarantees, such as KUR, they have met their target. "Therefore, until the end of 2017, we will prioritize surety bond products or project guarantees," he concluded. (source: www.tribunnews.com)
