Misbakhun Honored as Economic Policy Integrator at detikcom Awards 2025

Recognition for Bridging Fiscal and Monetary Policies

Mukhamad Misbakhun, Chairman of DPR RI Commission XII, has been recognized as the Economic Policy Integrator Figure at the detikcom Awards 2025. The award, presented at The Westin Jakarta, acknowledges Misbakhun's significant contributions to Indonesia's economic landscape. As a key figure in the DPR, he has played a crucial role in connecting fiscal policy (involving the state budget, Ministry of Finance, and Bappenas) with monetary policy (covering Bank Indonesia, OJK, and LPS).

Key Contributions to Economic Policy Coordination

Misbakhun has consistently emphasized the importance of coordinated economic policies between fiscal and monetary authorities. He has been vocal about the need for synchronized programs such as targeted subsidies, fiscal incentives for MSMEs, and financial sector reforms. His integrative approach views economic policy not as separate institutional domains but as an interconnected chain of public policy decisions.

Enhancing Public Understanding of Economic Issues

One of Misbakhun's notable contributions has been his ability to explain complex economic issues in accessible language. This has helped bridge the gap between technical economic discourse and public understanding. His efforts in economic education and awareness have been particularly valuable in fostering a more informed public discourse about economic policies and their implications.

A Holistic View of Economic Oversight

Misbakhun has also been a proponent of viewing economic oversight as an ecosystem that encompasses various aspects including taxation, banking, exchange rates, and consumer purchasing power. This comprehensive perspective is reflected in his oversight activities and public statements, demonstrating a rare integrative viewpoint amidst often sectoral political debates.
