Political constellations, among others, have not been able to exclude the term --global competition-- from their discussions. As such, the conference organizer sees the need for discussing Indonesia's development in light of global competition issues. Harmony and balance are the true heart of Indonesia's movement toward engaging Indonesia's economy in the international community. For that reason, the organizer chooses to use expressions that reflect such aspects for this conference. Because the term "global competition" may refer to the existence of rivalry or win-lose outcomes, we believe that the phrase "global competitiveness" would eliminate such notion. The phrase explains our vision to empower Indonesia to engage in domestic as well as international business. We strive to improve the quality of Indonesia's involvement in global economy without harming other economies. It is important that global competitiveness be measured in order to provide accurate and real information in regard to the achievement level of an economy. However, many institutions have misled the purpose of having such information. As a result, public will be exposed to two contradictory facts about the global competitiveness that clout any effort to upgrade the ability of Indonesia's economy to move toward higher productivity. It is not something peculiar when a scientific speech mentioned that Indonesia's global competitiveness was declining (Pikiran Rakyat, May 19, 2009), while another source claimed that Indonesia's global competitiveness was rising (IMD, June 7, 2009). This is the reason why as Indonesian community members we must get together. It is imperative for any Indonesian, particularly the one who is privileged to have access to knowledge and skills to help build the country. The very first mission of the conference is putting aside all politically motivated -- sound scientific-terrific reports or figures that misinform people and policy makers in regard to global competitiveness. The conference is organized in order to discover the truth about Indonesia's economic competitiveness. We then discuss the best way for Indonesia to improve its chance to do business worldwide, particularly to improve information system pertaining to innovations. On this occasion, the focus will be on agriculture and information and technology. The Asian Society for International Relations and Public Affairs (ASIRPA) is pleased to invite public presentation during the year of 2010 Indonesia Focus conference to be held in Chicago, the great state of Illinois. The conference will provide a forum for discussion and exchange across the broad spectrum of topics to the benefit of conference participants and Indonesian community at large. For this year's occasion, the organizing committee offers several topics as follows: - Indonesia's policy on economic development and global trade - The audacity of hope toward Indonesia's development - Developing Indonesia and U.S. cooperation. - Global threat and opportunities in Agricultural product - Challenge in agricultural modernization - The efficient agriculture industry - Marketing Indonesia's products - Policy on Indonesia's Information -- Technology - Best topics in IT for Indonesia - Current development in IT - Hot jobs in IT for Indonesian - The importance of religious tolerance - The issue of radicalism These topics can be presented in various ways. Eligibility Individuals interested in performing public presentation must be registered as participant of Indonesia Focus 2010. ASRIPA does not provide any financial support for presenters/panelists. However, the benefit of presentation is so overwhelmingly huge considering a wide coverage of conference and that submitted papers may be published in Journal of ASIRPA.
