Makassar, S Sulawesi (ANTARA News) - Vice President Jusuf Kalla has reminded students of three important points to contribute to the nation and state in future.

The three points are related to technological and scientific advancements, entrepreneurship, and efficient and quick bureaucracy, he remarked during the launch of infrastructure development at the Islamic University of Makassar here on Saturday.

"If they can be realized, (the country) will make greater progress than the others," he noted.

The first and second points are the challenge that the students will face, and hopefully, they would benefit from them, he remarked.

With the rapid developments in technology, the students will be able to create the best work for public life, he emphasized.

Creating technological innovations that will ease the lives of people is the dire need of the hour, he noted.

The same also applies to entrepreneurship that offers vast areas of potential to students to develop economic activities. The presence of increasingly sophisticated technology has enabled people to conduct transactions more easily.

"Hence, the students must have the courage to become entrepreneurs," he added.
