In an industry dominated by men, a sharp, straight-shooting woman has risen head and shoulders above her counterparts to become one of Indonesia's most successful business people. Eka Sari Lorena Soerbakti is chairperson of the Organization of Land Transport Owners (Organda), most probably because she happens to be the managing director of the companies Eka Sari Lorena Express and Eka Sari Lorena Logistics, the director of Eka Sari Lorena Transport and the deputy director of Eka Sari Lorena Holdings. She is also on the Research Committee for Transport and Logistics at the Yogyakarta-based Gadjah Mada University.
German multinational company Bayer is well known internationally as the pharmaceutical company that produces aspirin. Many Indonesians also associate it with Baygon insecticide. Less known is Bayer's production in the material (US$12.7 billion in sales in 2013) and crop sciences (US$10 billion in sales in 2013). Their crop science business ranks second largest worldwide. In Indonesia, how is Bayer capitalizing on the new government's plans to achieve food sovereignty and universal healthcare? Last week, Tempo English contributor Melati Kaye spoke to Bayer-Indonesia CEO, Ashraf Al-Ouf, about the opportunities and challenges of Indonesia as a potential market and as a pharmaceutical and agricultural production hub.
