李立:前進東爪哇 機不可失

作者:文 方文章 圖 周伶繁
  台商在東爪哇省投資經年,成果豐碩且不斷茁壯,見證了台灣與印尼有目共睹的經貿與文化往來所帶來的無窮商機。」印尼東爪哇省投資局主任李立(Lili Soleh Wartadipradja) 歡迎台商在既有的基礎上,繼續以東爪哇省為基地,拓銷印尼全國與東南亞國協的廣大市場。他說:「東爪哇作為印尼未來的經濟發展重心,成長可期,切勿錯失良機。」

東爪哇省 經濟成長仍亮眼
  李立於今(2015)年10月19日晨間在台北寒舍艾美酒店舉辦之印尼東爪哇省投資說明會中表示,地處印尼中央、幅輳印尼全國的東爪哇省,經濟發展相對落後於西部的雅加達地區,但隨著政府力求東西均衡發展而將開發重心逐漸東移,印尼未來的璀璨商機將落腳東爪哇省,已是毋庸置疑。他說,近年來全球景氣遲緩,印尼難以倖免於國際大勢,經濟成長隨之遇挫,然而東爪哇省表現仍然亮眼,去年與今年第1季GDP成長率分別為5.86%與5.22%,高於全印尼的5.02%與4.7%。東爪哇省與年降低的失業率,也是低於全印尼,家戶所得也是不斷上增,消費力不容小覷。
  東爪哇省擁有龐大的年輕人口,而且基本工資尚低,近年來更選定科技暨工程、資通信、醫療、農業、漁業暨海洋、企管、旅遊、工藝與表演藝術等9大領域,積極培訓就業市場,技術人力不虞匱乏。李立指出,東爪哇省基本工資水準約略可分為3環,第1環的泗水、Gresik、Sidoarjo、Pasuruan與Mojerkoto地區僅約204美元,第2與第3環更低,分別為120美元與90-100美元。勞力需求密集的產業,不妨考慮到第2、3環發展。

地點選擇多 已有台商卡位
  李立表示,自1987年至2015年第1季,台商在東爪哇省的實際投資累計266件,總額達8,480萬美元,主要行業為服務、加工與食品飲料,分布地點則集中在Mojokerto、泗水與Sidoarjo,在Sidoarjo更有一個歷史相當悠久的台商協會。他說,除了前述台商密集的區域外,其實東爪哇省的工業用地高達1萬8,700公頃,投資地點的選擇相當多,況且東爪哇省極力發展基礎建設,電力豐沛有餘,台商實在不應劃地自限,而應多到其他地點考察。
  在前人既有的搭橋基礎上,加以今年初印尼推出「一站式」服務而大幅簡化投資審批流程,東爪哇省政府更保證協助外商取得土地與招募人力,只要台商投石問路,尋找洽當的窗口與合適的諮詢或合作夥伴,協助克服行政程序並進行在地化經營,成功應該是十拿九穩。李立表示,東爪哇省投資局樂意成為台商與印尼業者的橋梁,居中服務。


Low Wage, High Power
Lili: Time to Invest in East Java

  Taiwanese businesses have been long established in Indonesia and still keep growing. Their success testifies to the prosperous opportunities brought forward by the economic and cultural exchange between the two countries.” Lili Soleh Wartadipradja, Chairman of
Investment Board of East Java Provincial Government said, suggesting that Taiwanese businesses use the province as a hub to market in Indonesia and ASEAN countries. He added that the high potential of East Java, which is currently the center of the nation’s development plan, cannot be overstated.

Brilliant Economic Growth
  In the seminar on East Java´s Investment Environment and Opportunity held at Le Meridien Taipei Hotel on October 19th, Liliemphasized that the strategic location of East Java, which is less developed compared to the eastern Jakarta area, has recently attracted the eyes of international investors because of the new Jokowi government’s plan to balance the disparity between east and west Indonesia. He said that East Java’s GDP grew 5.86% and 5.22% respectively in the past year and the first quarter of this year, higher than the national average of 5.02% and 4.7%. In addition, the unemployment rate of East Java is also lower than the nation’s average, and its household disposal income is increasing, which means that East Java consumers have pretty decent spending power.
  In addition to its young population and still low wage, the East Java Provincial administration has targeted 9 industries - that is, technology and engineering, information and communication, healthcare, ag riculture and agribusiness, fishery and marine industry, business management, tourism, art and craft, and performing art. The government puts tremendous investment in education and training projects to ensure plenty supply of skilled labor in these nine areas. Lili said that East Java can be divided into three “rings”: the minimum wage of the first ring, which includes Surabaya, Gresik, Sidoarjo, Pasuruan, and Mojerkoto, is about US$204, whereas the minimum wage of the second and third rings is lower at about $120 and US$90-100. The last two rings are suitable for labor-intensive industries.

Various Investment Sites
  According to East Java Investment Board’s statistics, there were 266 Taiwan’s investments in the province from 1987 to the first quarter of 2015, with accumulated total value of US$84.8 million. The most invested industries are service, processing, and food and beverage, and the locations are mostly Mojerkoto, Surabaya, and Sidoarjo. In Sidoarjo, there is even a long-established Taiwanese business association. In addition to the above areas which have been densely populated by Taiwanese companies, Lili recommends other
high potential sites. He said that East Java has up to 18,700 hectares of industrial plots in total, and there are therefore plenty of other locations worthy of Taiwanese businesses to discover.
  Lili said that the long history of bilateral interaction provides a strong foundation for Taiwan’s investment in Indonesia, the new “one-stop license” service introduced in January this year will streamline the red tape, and the East Java Provincial government promises to facilitate land provision and availability of labor. All of these incentives combined ensure investment success if Taiwanese businesses can find a suitable local partner to help cut through the bureaucratic system and different local culture. And Lili said that the East Java Investment Board will be more than happy to serve as a bridge between Taiwanese businesses and Indonesia’s local partners.
