Gates praised Indonesia's role in regional vaccine manufacturing through Bio Farma and its investments in digital public infrastructure, and signaled support for the country's new universal free school-lunch program and for testing a Gates-backed tuberculosis vaccine in Indonesia. The visit reflected the foundation's deepening engagement with Southeast Asia's most populous nation on health and nutrition.

Gates retreats for solitary, twice-yearly 'Think Weeks'

The ritual became famous as a model of deep, focused thinking by a busy executive, and was credited with helping spark major pivots — including Microsoft's embrace of the internet. Gates carried the habit of voracious, deliberate reading into his philanthropy.
