President Joko Widodo made his first internation speech during the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) CEO Summit in Beijing, China, on Monday last week. He spoke slowly, using simple English and a thick Javanese accent. The video of his speech on YouTube is arguably the most-watched video that has ever been uploaded by APEC. While he was not the most eloquent English speaker, Joko's message was clear: he wants more investors to put their money in Indonesia.
He focused on four different sectors: ports and the nautical highway system, trains, mass transportation and electricity.

We want to build ports in Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Papua. This is your opportunity, he said.
