#TheJakartaGlobe# 【Chinese Economist: Indonesia’s Global Influence to Grow with BRICS Membership】（Faisal Maliki Baskoro）Jakarta. Indonesia’s recent accession to the BRICS bloc is expected to significantly bolster its economy and expand its global influence, according to Chinese economist Song Qinghui. Song sees Indonesia’s membership as a crucial step towards economic advancement and greater participation in global affairs. “Indonesia’s entire economy is currently facing challenges in growth and transformation,” said Song. “For example, the economic growth rate does not meet the expected target. The target is 8 percent, but currently, it stands at 4.9 percent, which is quite far off,” Song said in an interview with video news agency Viory on Saturday. #Foreignmediainterview#
