The Fate Of A Computer Assembly Industry
Director General of Transport Equipment and Telematics Ministry of Industry Budi Darmadi said is still quite difficult to grow the industry computer assembly or assembly in Indonesia.
“Since the entry of zero per cent import duty,” he said when met at Apkomindo Summit, Shangrila Hotel, Jakarta, Tuesday (20 / 4). Imposition of import duty is zero percent, based on policies to foster technological literacy in Indonesian society.
So, with zero per cent import duty is, people prefer to trade. Budi hope with the implementation of ASEAN free trade China today, the component industry will go to Indonesia, or they go all the assembly industry.
In fact today, he said there are already companies that intend to set up factories in Indonesia, but until now the new companies that simply look-see potential in Indonesia. “There are checks and ricek them,” he said.
It’s just that clear, he said the government was talking with principals to establish a computer manufacturer factory in Indonesia.
Budi said the government would provide duty borne by the government for raw materials to be imported.(By : Iqbal Muhtarom)
