In this beautiful evening, I would like to invite all of us to jointly extend our gratitude to God Almighty for the opportunity to meet in such wonderful settings at the Annual Bankers’ Dinner 2011. 2. Although slightly belated, please allow me on behalf of all members of the Board of Governors of Bank Indonesia, to wish you a Happy New Year 2011.
We hope this new year will be the year of our great achievement. Distinguished guests, ladies, and gentlemen, 3. We have just passed the global economic crisis 2008/2009 and if I may construe our economy in the period of 2010–2011 will be in the stage of transformation to a new era, shifting from a recovery phase towards a sustainable growth.
