The Indonesian President said that Indonesia needed investor’s presence, not just to improve the economy but also to create jobs. After the launching of investment year 2003 the Chairman of Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), Theo F. Toemion said that BKPM planned to introduce new paradigm to promote investment in Indonesia. One of the things that the Chairman of BKPM like to establish is groundwork for investment policy’s and law concept. Among those policy and laws are the Investment Bill and three Presidential Decree i.e. legalization on investment procedure, under one roof service plan and investment protection national team. Meanwhile, Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KADIN) recommended the government to prepare comprehensive regulation to improve investment climate in the country, besides that the government must also implement law enforcement, create incentive investment package as well as provide basic infrastructure such as road, harbor, airport, electricity and telephone lines.
RI OFFERING 11 NEW OIL AND GAS CONCESSION FOR INVESTORS: The Indonesian Government is offering 11 new oil and gas concession for investors this year, promising better contractual terms, enabling the investors to reap larger rewards. The Indonesian Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Purnomo Yusgiantoro while speaking at the forum “Dialog Forum of Oil, Energy and Mining Stakeholders” said that the government will consider offering a more attractive production split based on the technical and economic aspects of the oil and gas potential. The forum, which was opened by Indonesian President, Her Excellency Mrs. Megawati Soekarnoputri was attended by top executives from oil, energy and mining companies and several ministers including Coordinating Minister for the Economy Dorodjatun Kuntjoro-Jakti, Minister for Industry and Trade Rini Soewandi, Minister for Forestry M. Prakosa and Chairman of Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Theo F. Toemion. The Indonesian Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Purnomo Yusgiantoro said that the recipients of the 11 contracts were expected to invest a total US $160 million in exploration activities in the first three years, which would have a real multiplier effect on the national and regional economies. The 11 new contract areas were located respectively in Jambi and South Sumatra (2 contracts), off the coast of Rembang, Central Java (1), off the coast of East Java (5), off the coast of Bali (2) and off the coast of Tarakan island, East Kalimantan (1). The oil and gas sector has been the main source of income for the government over the past three decades. Last year, 29 percent of the government’s income came from this sector, where investors spent US $5 billion to US $6 billion on exploration and production activities, or about 40 percent of total investment in the country during that period. BPS - GDP GREW BY 3.66% IN YEAR 2002: The Indonesian Central Statistics Agency (BPS) recently announced that the country’s economy in year 2002 grew at a slower rate than projected by the government. BPS said gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 3.66 percent last year compared to the figure in year 2001, but the figure was lower than the government’s forecast of 4 percent. As expected, growth last year continued to be driven by household and government consumption, which respectively expanded by 4.72 percent and 12.79 percent over the 2001 levels. BPS further added that investment and exports declined by 0.19 percent and 1.24 percent respectively. The Indonesian government is targeting growth of 4 percent this year hoping that in addition to consumption, exports will make a greater contribution to the economy.

Pelindo III President, Bambang Darwoto said that the new port would help Indonesian exporters save time and money as cargo shipped from the port could by pass Singapore directly to its destination. Pelindo III President Bambang Darwoto further added that existing port in Surabaya, Tanjung Perak, was too small and could no longer be expanded to accommodate future cargo load volumes of between 3 million to 5 million twenty-feet equivalent units (TEUs). The installed capacity of the Tanjung Perak port is only around 1.8 million TEUs with 11 cranes operating. The new port would be built on 500 hectares of coastal area in Kalilamong, about 40 kilometers north west of Tanjung Perak with the port having industrial bonded zones and warehouses to help exporters. The construction of the port will be started in 2005, with operations expected to start in year 2015.

The importers can register their companies at the customs office’s website http://www.beacukai.go.id/ JICT PLANS INTERNATIONAL STANDARD SEAPORT: An official from the Jakarta International Container Terminal (JICT), Indonesia’s largest container terminal company said that it would spend around US $70 million in the current year to upgrade facilities in a drive to become the first fully international-standard seaport hub in the country. JICT president, W.S. Wirjan said that upgrading the facilities was needed to enhance its direct call shipment service, thus allowing more large ships to load and unload containers at its port. Wirjan further added that by year 2004, JICT’s quay facility would reach a span of 2.5 kilometers with 20 cranes operating and 100 hectares of storage space adding that it would enable the terminal to enhance its installed container capacity to 3 million twenty-feet equivalent units (TEUs) from the current 2.3 million TEUs. Turning JICT into a full-service international seaport will help Indonesian exporters save time and money as cargo can be shipped from the port directly to overseas destinations without having to make a stop over in Singapore of Malaysian ports.
