A very interesting and heart-touching incident has come to light from the corridors of international diplomacy, which has once again proved the growing popularity of India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the global stage. During a high-profile international summit, the President of Indonesia openly admitted that he follows PM Modi in his policies and governance system. He said in a very funny tone that "It is thank God that there is no copyright on Prime Minister Modi, otherwise we would have been in big trouble." After this unique revelation, the entire hall echoed with laughter from all the global leaders and guests present at the event. When the Indonesian President received praise on the global stage, this historic incident happened during a summit organized to strengthen bilateral relations and mutual coordination between the two countries. In his address, the President of Indonesia praised India’s digital revolution, public welfare schemes and infrastructure development. He said that the position India has achieved in the last few years under the leadership of PM Modi is an excellent role model for the developing countries of the world. Influenced by this development model, Indonesia is also preparing many of its national plans on the lines of India. Why did global leaders start laughing at the statement about ‘copyright’? During the address, when the Indonesian President talked about imitating PM Modi in a light manner, the atmosphere of the hall became very pleasant. He said that Prime Minister Modi’s working speed, unique style of connecting with the public and his visionary thinking are so effective that no head of state can remain without being impressed by him. He looked at PM Modi smilingly and said that we are implementing your good policies in our country, and we are happy that for this we will not get any notice of any ‘intellectual property rights’ or copyright violation. Even PM Modi himself could not stop laughing at this funny comment. Many countries are crazy about India’s ‘Digital India’ and ‘UPI’ model. This is not the first time that the head of any country has praised PM Modi or India’s policies in this way. Indonesia has particularly been a big admirer of India’s digital payments system (UPI), the Jan Dhan Yojana for financial inclusion and the technology strategies adopted during Covid management. The Indonesian President indicated that they are also working on several other domestic technological projects (Geographical & Digital Joint Ventures) with India to strengthen the economic and social structure of their country. Growing global stature and new demonstration of India’s ‘soft power’ International diplomacy experts (Global Dynamic Analysts) believe that this respect given to the Prime Minister of India on foreign forums and the willingness of other countries to adopt his policies, is actually a direct proof of India’s strengthening ‘soft power’. Today, big countries of the world are not only watching India’s development journey closely, but are also trying to replicate it in their countries. This statement of the Indonesian President shows that India is no longer just a part of the global agenda, but it is setting a new definition of development for the world.
