"We want music to be the most important and foremost part of the creative economy sub-sector. The music sub-sector in 2020 contributed nearly IDR 6 trillion. If you look at it, its growth will be very positive in 2022," said Menparekraf Sandiaga Uno in Cilandak, Jakarta, Monday. Menparekraf explained that in addition to the projected GDP of IDR 7 trillion, the government is also targeting the music sub-sector to absorb as many as 70 thousand workers this year.
