INDUSTRY.co.id - Tanjung Selo- The entry of the Yellow Land Industry Area or the Industrial Estate and International Port (KIPI) of Tanah Kuning, East Tanjung Palas Subdistrict, Bulungan Regency into the National Strategic Projects list (PSN), is a reactive form of the Indonesian Government's desire to encourage The growth of industrial areas outside Java.
This industrial area has been actively proposed by the Governor of Kaltara (Dr H Irianto Lambrie) since 2016, followed by the making of his masterplan. Based on that, and incidentally the Governor has conveyed this desire to the Minister of Industry (Airlangga Hartarto), we are processed and pushed into PSN, Busharmaidi, Director of Industrial Development II of the Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin), told media crew recently.
With the entry of the Yellow Land Industrial Zone into the PSN, there are 19 industrial estates that are prioritized to be realized until 2019. Tanah Kuning has something specific, based on the reviews we see. One of them, this area is integrated with the support of power sources from hydropower (KTA), Busharmaidi said.
Based on the information received by the Ministry of Industry, investors have shown the seriousness of building a Kayan hydro power plant. Its existence, is believed Busharmaidi able to support the existence of energy vapor industry that will be developed in the Tanah Kuning Industrial Zone such as smelter alumina and other industries, explained Busharmaidi.
Busharmaidi also assured that his party, partially will encourage the entry of other investments into the Tanah Kuning Industrial Zone. "We, as managers of industrial parks, will encourage industry players or investors as members to become partners in the industrial area, he explained.
This is realistic to be realized immediately, because along with the entry of Soil Industry Zone as PSN, all ministries and related institutions will give attention to the acceleration of its implementation. If there is an infrastructure needed to be built in the Tanah Kuning Industrial Zone, then the ministry or related institutions will pay great attention to the realization, Busharmaidi said.
With the existence of supporting infrastructure in the Tanah Kuning Industrial Estate, will facilitate investors to immediately do their work. So if there are investors who are interested and ready to start investing, if there are infrastructure constraints then we will remind to the relevant ministries or agencies to immediately complete the necessary supporting infrastructure development. Whether it is roads, ports or other, Busharmaidi said, targeting large investments would enter the Yellow Land Industry Zone, both outside and within the industrial estate.
Over the next three years, the Government encourages the acceleration of industrial estate development. This industrial estate will add value to Kaltara, which will simultaneously absorb labor force to affect the regional economy, "said Busharmaidi.
As a new province, Kaltara's economic growth will grow well. This, will contribute greatly to the national growth later on. If Kaltara grows its economy, there are two things that Kaltara contributes to this country, which is contributing to growth itself, both contributing to the government's efforts to flatten the nation's economic growth, thoroughly.
