NUSA DUA, BALI - UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has said Indonesia had to do improvement in various fields, although it has made a lot of progress in reducing natural disaster risk.
"Indonesia still has to improve a lot of things," the UN chief said in the sidelines of his participation in the 4th ASEAN-UN Summit in Nusa Dua, Bali, on Saturday.
Ban said that main focus at present was the target of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) which among others related to health insurance, especially for women and children.
The UN chief has visited Central Kalimantan hinterland to inspect a number of public health clinics before coming to Bali to attend the ASEAN-UN Summit. According to him, a country should not wait until it was prosperous because its people`s welfare would only be reached through various efforts.
In particular the UN secretary general appreciated the success of Indonesia in reducing the risk of natural disaster through a good will and leadership. Ban Ki-Mon also said Indonesia has made various efforts to reduce poverty.
He asserted that ASEAN region including Indonesia were new economic development areas, and therefore ASEAN should continue to cooperate to step up the resilience of the region.
Ban said the United Nations was ready to build a cooperation with ASEAN which was marked with the signing of a joint statement between ASEAN and UN to enhance comprehensive cooperation in various fields.
