G77 is a group of developing countries and emerging powers that represent 80 percent of the world's population. The bloc was founded by 77 developing countries—or what is also often referred to as the Global South—in 1964, as reported on its website,"to articulate and advocate for their economic interests and enhance their negotiating capacity together."
In her speech, Retno stated that solidarity and unity among developing countries are much needed during times of crisis as these countries are often the most affected. The biggest impact is felt by the group of society with middle to lower income, who usually make up the biggest composition in the population of developing poor countries.
Secretary General of the United Nations Antonio Guterres, during his visit to Jakarta for the ASEAN-UN Summit two weeks ago, stated that in the midst of situations like this, African countries need to optimize their ability in producing local food resources by utilizing technology and innovating. However, such measures are not easy to undertake.
He is advocating for greater equality to address the gap."The world is disappointing developing countries," said Guterres.The main issue in this G77 meeting is the disparity in access to knowledge, technology, and innovation experienced by developing poor countries. This problem has an impact on the weak ability of the people and government in those countries to overcome their lag behind developed countries.
