can hold. That is what we mean by inclusive economy and that will happen in
the next five years," said Andanar.

the second State of the Nation Address. That is very important for our people to
watch this, to learn, to listen carefully. And it is very important also for our
diplomatic core and for the rest of the foreign direct investors to focus and listen
to, because from the second State of the Nation Address, they will see
inspiration and they will draw from it, and I am certain that from this, they will
be more inspired or encouraged to invest in our country," said
Andanar. — Reuters
