Yogyakarta to transform into Indonesian Silicon Valley
The Jakarta Post | Thu, February 22, 2018 | 04:28 pm
The Yogyakarta provincial administration is set to transform 385 hectares of land in Piyungan, Bantul regency, and Sentolo, Kulon Progo regency, into a technology center similar to Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area in the United States.
“The two locations are prepared to become the Silicon Valley of Indonesia,” said the assistant to the Yogyakarta regional secretary for development affairs, Budi Wibowo, in Yogyakarta on Wednesday as reported by Antara news agency.
He said the areas would be converted into an industrial estate that would become the center of fashion, culinary arts, handicrafts, animation and games as well as other creative businesses. “There will be no large manufacturing factories,” he added.
The two areas – 335 hectares in Bantul and 50 hectares in Kulon Progo – have long been the subject of the development plan.
Budi said the provincial and local administration would cooperate with any investors seeking to do business in the two areas, the development of which would be kicked off by President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo on March 12.
Furthermore, he said the provincial administration had coordinated with the Bantul and Kulon Progo administrations over the business license issuance plan to ensure a quick and smooth investment process.
He said the tenants of the digital valley would be small and medium enterprises (SMEs) focused on creative businesses. “We have 524,395 SMEs that dominate economic growth in Yogyakarta,” he added. (bbn)

Bali plans to develop an offshore airport in the northern part of the resort island with the name of Bandara International Bali Baru (BIBU) or the New Bali International Airport.
Project developer PT BIBU president director I Made Mangku said in Bali on Thursday that the company preferred to develop an offshore airport because the initial plan of an onshore airport would have sacrificed a number of things, including 33 Hindu temples, 121 historical sites, roads, residences and productive rice fields.
Meanwhile, Bali Governor Mangku Pastika has prohibited any taking over of productive land, Hindu temples or historical sites for the development of the new airport, Made added.
“There are so many obstacles to developing an onshore [airport], therefore we prefer to develop offshore,” said Made as reported by tempo.co, adding that the offshore airport would be developed off Beleleng regency.
He said the new airport development was aimed at promoting the many tourism spots in North Bali like Tulamben, Nusa Penida and West Bali National Park as well as to open access to Banyuwangi in East Java and Lombok in West Nusa Tenggara.
He said that currently, Bali tourism was only concentrated in the southern part of Bali, the location of I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport.
New Bali International Airport is designed to accommodate 32 million passengers annually, equipped with a 230,000-square-meter terminal and a 4,100 meter runway. (bbn)

24 Smelter Telah Beroperasi Hingga Akhir 2017
Source : https://finance.detik.com/energi/d-3811385/24-smelter-telah-beroperasi-hingga-akhir-2017
Direktur Jenderal Mineral dan Batubara Kementerian ESDM, Bambang Gatot Ariyono mengungkapkan bahwa fasilitas pengolahan dan pemurnian atau smelter yang telah beroperasi sampai akhir tahun 2017 terdapat 24 buah. Mayoritas smelter yang telah beroperasi adalah pengolahan dan pemurnian nikel sebanyak 15 buah, disusul oleh 4 smelter besi, 2 smelter bauksit, 2 smelter mangan dan 1 smelter tembaga.
Ke depannya, pembangunan fasilitas pengolahan dan pemurnian hasil tambang ini akan terus bertambah. Bambang juga menjelaskan bahwa beberapa smelter saat ini sedang tahap pembangunan.
Perkembangan pembangunan ini terbagi menjadi dua kelompok, yaitu dengan progres 50-100% dan juga smelter dengan progres pembangunan 0-50%.
Data yang diungkapkan Bambang menunjukkan ke depannya smelter nikel tetap akan menjadi mayoritas fasilitas pengolahan dan pemurnian di Indonesia. Tercatat 3 perusahaan yang sedang membangun smelter nikel dengan progres pengerjaan antara 50% - 100% ditambah 12 perusahaan yang kini membangun smleter nikel dengan progres 0 - 50%. Dengan demikian, setidaknya akan ada tambahan 15 smelter nikel yang akan beroperasi.
"Yang paling banyak adalah nikel. Nikel sendiri smelter yang dibangun itu kurang lebih 30 smelter," tutur Bambang dalam keterangan tertulisnya, Jakarta, Jumat (12/1/2018).
Selain nikel, bauksit juga akan mendapatkan tambahan smelter. Saat ini ada 4 perusahaan yang sedang membangun fasilitas pengolahan dan pemurnian bauksit dengan progres pembangunan sebanyak 0 - 50%.
Tidak hanya itu, smelter timbal dan zink juga sedang dibangun oleh 3 perusahaan dengan rincian 2 perusahaan membangun dengan progres 0 - 50% dan 1 perusahaan membangun dengan progres 50 - 100%.
Fasilitas pengolahan dan pemurnian besi juga sedang dibangun oleh 2 perusahaan, masing-masing dengan progres 50 - 100% dan 0 - 50%. Di samping itu, juga akan ada 2 tambahan smelter tembaga yang saat ini sedang dibangun dengan progres 0 - 50%.
"Jadi kalau kita lihat total semua smelter yang ada di Indonesia kurang lebih sekitar 50 perusahaan yang sudah membangun smelter dari 6 komoditi, yang paling banyak adalah nikel," tutup Bambang.

New Biosimilars Factory in Cikarang Will Help Reduce Dependency on Drug Imports
source : http://jakartaglobe.id/business/new...ang-will-help-reduce-dependency-drug-imports/
Jakarta. President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo inaugurated a $35 million biosimilars factory owned by pharmaceutical company Kalbe Farma in Cikarang, West Java, on Tuesday (27/02).
Managed through subsidiary Kalbio Global Medika, the factory is expected to reduce Kalbe's dependency on imports for its drug production. The factory will produce erythropoietin, a hormone secreted by the kidney that stimulates red blood cell production to help battle cancer, kidney failure and anemia.
"This is one of the milestones [for Indonesia] as we are using a technology-based factory [to produce the drugs], where everything is automatically controlled. Hopefully, this will also push the capabilities of the country's human resources," Jokowi told reporters on Tuesday.
As more Indonesians suffer from certain complicated diseases, there is an expectation to produce more biological drugs believed to have fewer side effects than their chemical counterparts.
Once erythropoietin products enter the market by the end of the year, Kalbe will begin producing Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (GCSF) to help stimulate red blood cells - then followed by the production of insulin and the monoclonal antibody.
Aside from constructing the factory, Kalbe needs Rp 200 billion ($14 million) in the first phase of investment to enhance its research and development capabilities and to forge closer partnerships with Chinese and South Korean companies to allow more technology transfers.
The company hopes to produce about 2-3 million syringes worth of erythropoietin in the first phase of production. The products will be sold in domestic and regional markets.
Aside from trying to capture the Southeast Asian market, Kalbe will also plan to expand its business to Sri Lanka and the Middle East in an effort to increase exports by 10 percent in the next five years, up from 6 percent currently.
"The inauguration of the drug factory is a form of commitment to bring the initiative and encouragement to accelerate the integrated pharmaceutical industry, to produce raw materials, technology expertise and to increase exports," Kalbe Farma president director Vidjongtius said on Monday.
Vidjongtius said the company will invest around Rp 1 trillion to Rp 2 trillion over the next five years.

Development of Jakarta MRT phase-2 to start in 2018
https://www.viva.co.id/berita/bisnis...-desember-2018
- PT MRT Jakarta plans to conduct the groundbreaking of MRT phase-2 development in December 2018.
- The MRT phase-2 will extend 7.8 kilometers from the Hotel Indonesia roundabout to Kampung Bandan, with 8 underground stations.
- The construction is financed by the loan from Japan (Rp25.1 trillion).
MRT JAKARTA
North-South Line | route : Lebak Bulus - Kampung Bandan, Jakarta
- FASA I -
North-South Line | route : Lebak Bulus - Kampung Bandan, Jakarta
- FASA I -
Konstruksi Elevated : 87,99% | Layang : 95,76%
Total keseluruhan : 91,86%
Diharapkan konstruksi area atas sisi barat dapat selesai sebelum Asian Games 2018 termasuk trotoarnya. Karena sisi barat lebih vital dalam artian dekat dengan venue GBK dan akan menjadi aktivitas orang-orang nantinya.
Untuk trotoar diluar TOD stasiun merupakan kebijakan Dinas Bina Marga.
- FASA II -
Nantinya fasa II hanya akan menggunakan 1 sisi saja sehingga tidak menghimpit kanal batang hari yang berada di tengah jalan antara JL. Hayam Wuruk & Jl. Gajah Mada. Hal ini selain unutk memangkas anggaran juga untuk percepatan pembangunan fasa II. Sehingga nantinya stasiun dan terowongan akan saling bersusun atau bisa dibilang tingkat atas bawah.
Jakarta Serpong MRT phase-3 feasibility study to be developed this year
https://www.pwc.com/id/en/media-centre/infrastructure-news/jan-2018/jkt-serpong-mrt-study.html
- PT MRT plans to develop a feasibility study (FS) for Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) route extension from Jakarta to Serpong, South Tangerang this year.
- Later on, the FS documents will serve as a guide on whether to proceed with the MRT route extension plan.
- If the project is to be carried out, PT MRT Jakarta will still invite an investor to support the financing needs. To date, however, the DKI Jakarta provincial region-owned business enterprise has yet to approach the potential investors.
