Hadirin yang saya hormati, Para Pengusaha Muda yang saya cintai, Saya menitip satu hal sebelum mengakhiri sambutan saya ini, yaitu kewajiban kita untuk terus mendorong, mengembangkan, dan memajukan usaha mikro, usaha kecil, dan usaha menengah, termasuk di dalamnya koperasi. Mengapa? Saya mempelajari kisah sukses negara-negara lain di dalam mengurangi kemiskinan, termasuk saya beberapa kali berdialog dengan sahabat saya, Muhammad Yunus dari Bangladesh, penerima hadiah Nobel Perdamaian 4 tahun yang lalu. Maka saya berkesimpulan setelah mengelola pemerintahan selama 5 tahun kemarin, bahwa kalau usaha mikro, kecil, dan menengah ini terus tumbuh, lapangan pekerjaan akan terbuka. http://www.presidensby.info/index.php/pidato/2010/03/02/1346.html Nobel winner promotes social responsibility in business at CSUCIVentura County Star - Mark Storer - Feb 26, 2010Nobel Peace Prize winner Muhammad Yunus shakes hands with guests who did not get a chance to have copies of his book signed by him after his ...Subir Roy: Microfinance grapples with successBusiness Standard - Mar 2, 2010Second, Muhammad Yunus, founding father of Grameen Bank and someone who has not lost sight of the essential spirit of microfiance, offers a benchmark of ...Letters: When women lead the worldJakarta Post - Feb 10, 2010When economist Muhammad Yunus won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006 for his innovative work in microcredit lending, he made it clear that it was women who made ...CRIENGLISH.com2010-02-09 Japanese cars face crisis of trustCRIENGLISH.com - Feb 8, 2010The economist cites the example of Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus, who provides loans to those too poor to qualify for traditional bank loans. ...Grameen Crédit Agricole Foundation approves 14 million euros in microfinancing ...The FINANCIAL - Feb 5, 2010CAURIE is a savings and loans cooperative which, at 30 June 2009, had financed the businesses of 23100 active borrowers, all of them women. ...EPA:ACAPetani dan Kasus CenturyTempo Interaktif - Feb 23, 2010Tetapi, jika berkaca pada Grameen Bank ala Muhammad Yunus, keterbatasan lahan bukanlah persoalan.
