Singapore Rich Because Utilizing Resources Indonesia

Cyberpassnet, Jakarta - Indonesia is so rich in natural resources. But so far who enjoy the wealth of Singapore, as the Pride Lands is able to build adequate treatment facilities to stockpiles of raw material products.

Thus is explained the Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs, Nasution when a press conference in his office, Jakarta, Friday (09/18/2015).

"We have natural resources, agricultural products, but rich in Singapore. We have coffee, rubber exported to Singapore (raw material) but the standards are not clear. When he was in Singapore, packaged good, there is a letter indicating the levels how, so Another selling price, "he said.

Nasution admitted, one of the government regulation (PP) that changes is the Government Regulation No. 32 Year 2009 on Bonded Hoarding (TPB).

With the deregulation matter of bonded logistics center, is expected to close the gap between business with raw materials in the country so that the raw material prices are cheaper as well as the price of production.

Indonesia, Nasution light, is one of the cotton importing countries because of high demand and needs in the country. Every year, he added, the country is supplying cotton from the United States and Russia.

"But the goods were stockpiled in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia because she had bonded warehouse and not their investment. So what we do not make (bonded logistics center) here? So we do not need to import it again," he said.

Indonesia, he acknowledges, will develop a logistics center bonded by utilizing the existing land. The government gave investment bonded warehouse to a private party or a warehousing company, such as in the oil and gas sector, a producer of milk, cotton and others.

Nasution mentioned several locations bonded logistics center tilled potential private investors, among others:

1. Cikarang, West Java for stockpiling raw material cotton and milk
2. Tanjung Batu, Borneo in the oil and gas sector. PT Pertamina, he said, could buy fuel oil (BBM) in the center of the bonded at a cheaper price
3. Banten to stockpiling of raw materials in the trade sector
4. Banten to the reserve tank of fuel. Indonesia needs a place or a fuel storage tank is pretty much in order not to accumulate abroad
5. North Sumatra's capital-intensive industrial raw materials
6. Island Momoi for stockpiling explosives

Earlier, the Minister of Finance (Finance), Bambang Brodjonegoro express the concept or this policy, all auxiliary materials, raw materials to the ordinary capital goods deposited abroad can be moved into the country so as to increase the efficiency of business operations.

"So there is no such thing as the storage or fuel oil in Singapore. Storage of fuel to be close to the market, the market clearly ASEAN is Indonesia as the largest fuel-consuming. We're going to pull this storage and other logistics center from other countries to Indonesia," he stated.

According to Bambang, the development of bonded logistics center is to be followed by a revision of Government Regulation No. 32 Year 2009. With the easing, bonded warehouse concept would benefit Indonesia. Because buying fuel no longer need to Singapore with prices prevailing in the State.

"We used to store fuel for example in the bunker of the Java Sea. When it took the oil, bunker it must be exported first to Singapore, the new imported by Indonesia because there are rules bonded warehouses. Now with relaxation, if need oil, bunker sales to Indonesia with the prices here , do not follow MOPS Singapore. So this is an attempt to encourage the bonded logistics center, "he explained
