Indian environmental activist Vandana Shiva once told a public forum that the words “ecology” and “economy” were actually rooted in the same ancient Greek word: “oikos”, which could refer to a household, house or family. While we are striving for human development index betterment through our economic activities, it is also essential for us to be mindful that we do not run our planet Earth into overdrive.
Being mindful of the need to achieve this balance, the United Nations Development Programme’s (UNDP) 30
th anniversary edition of its annual Human Development Report (HDR) includes the “planet pressure” variable in its Human Development Index (HDI) measurement, thus coming up with a new concept called the planet and human development index (PHDI).

Indonesia set to build $116M vehicle test site to capture ASEAN market
Mon, 14 December 2020
Indonesia s transportation ministry aims to finish building a 1.64 trillion rupiah (US$116.5 million), international standard motor vehicle “proving ground” within the next four years to help Indonesian automakers capture the Southeast Asian market.
Minister Budi Karya Sumadi showed a project road map whereby the proving ground – a racetrack-like site to be built in Bekasi, West Java – was slated to begin development in 2022 and be finished by 2024.
The proving ground will test Indonesia-made motorcycles, three-wheelers, cars, buses and trucks in accordance with the international benchmark UN Regulation (UNR) on vehicles, to make them more compliant with other markets’ standards, particularly the ASEAN market.
The lack of holistic strategies, primarily marked by the weak connection between upstream and downstream industries, has hampered Indonesia’s efforts to create inclusive, sustainable and resilient food production systems.
This is the conclusion of a research study called Food Systems Analysis in Indonesia jointly conducted by the National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), as well as Bogor Agricultural University (IPB University).
It was disseminated during a JakPost Spotlight webinar titled Building Inclusive, Sustainable and Resilient Food Systems in Indonesia on Friday, Dec. 11 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.
Hosted by The Jakarta Post, the webinar featured Bappenas food and agricultural director Anang Noegroho, FAO Indonesia representative ad interim Richard Trenchard and research study team leader Drajat Martianto.
