Tifatul Sembiring Dorong Penguatan UMKM sebagai Fondasi Perekonomian
Tifatul Sembiring menyoroti kontribusi besar UMKM bagi penyerapan tenaga kerja, pemerataan ekonomi, dan PDB, namun dukungan pemerintah dinilai masih minim terutama terkait modal, pembiayaan, dan pemasaran. Handi Risza menambahkan bahwa UMKM mencakup 99% unit usaha dan menyerap 97% tenaga kerja, namun belum naik kelas akibat struktur industri lemah, turunnya manufaktur, dan menurunnya daya beli kelas menengah. Sebagai solusi, para akademisi mendorong konsolidasi hulu-hilir, integrasi UMKM ke rantai pasok industri besar, penguatan KUR, serta perlindungan pasar domestik untuk memutus lingkaran setan pelemahan daya beli.
