The master plan is being made by the government in the form of economic development cluster and corridor.
Coordinating Minister of Economy Hatta Rajasa said here on Saturday that the support had been delivered by ADB President Harihuko Kuroda and World Bank Managing Director Sri Mulyani at a meeting with President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.
"They will support the master plan to speed up infrastructure development and connectivity as the main pillar in the economic acceleration and integration of regional sector in six corridors," Hatta Rajasa said.
He said that ADB intended to give its direct assistance to both state and private enterprises to develop added value for Indonesian economic acceleration and expansion.
"Thus the connectivity, capacity building, and human resources are the three main pillars the Asian Development Bank is interested in," Hatta said, adding that he has been asked by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono to talk with the World Bank and ADB about the follow-up of the support.
The economic minister explained that based on ADB and World Bank evaluation, Indonesian economic situation at present was good, although it has to face with three problems namely food price rises, oil price hikes, and inflation.(*)
