Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia– West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil admitted that a number of factories that moved to other provinces on the basis of low wages admitted that he was sorry. This is because productivity in these other provinces is lower than West Java.
“(Factories) that have moved to other provinces are also sorry. Wages may be cheap but productivity is low,” said Kang Emil, Ridwan Kamil’s nickname in the discussion on Breakthroughs for Regional Heads in the Middle of a Pandemic and CNBC Indonesia Indonesia Award Best Regional Leaders, Friday (23 / 10/2020).
He explained West Java is one of the best provinces in real sector investment activities. This is because West Java’s infrastructure is the most complete and human resources have high productivity.
This infrastructure will be added to the Patimban Port, which is planned to be inaugurated by President Joko Widodo in the near future for phase one. Kang Emil hopes that Patimban Port can immediately start exporting after the inauguration.
“The cost in Indonesia is calculated to be expensive because the cost from the factory to Tanjung Priok is more expensive than from Tanjung Priok to Shanghai,” he explained.
