JCtrans: Would you please talk about the situation of logistic industry in your country?

Achmad Syaichu: Indonesia’s logistics sector is made up of a combination of shipping and international freight forwarders with that of courier providers mainly engaged in land transportation and total logistics services providers that operate a multimodal transport model. There is now a marked trend by local businesses in moving towards outsourcing key aspects of their supply chain management and distribution to third party logistics providers opening up the need for specialized logistics services in the fields.

A centerpiece of the new infrastructure developments is the New Priok Port which will be able to handle 11 million TEUs from the current figure of 6.8 million TEUs as well as 9 million cubic meters of oil and gas products. The first terminal of the $2.47 billion USD port is expected to be operational in 2014 with the second and third terminals due to be completed by 2023.

The development of the Sorong Port in Papua is a further example of Indonesia’s new logistical infrastructure development which is designed to cater to the East of Indonesia. These new ports will support the Nusantara Pendulum, a shipping route due to be introduced in 2014 that runs continuously from the East to the West of the country through six major ports and is then supported by localized shipping loops to reach the surrounding area. This plan is designed to lower logistical costs by using larger vessels for shipments, creating a balance between the East and the West of the country as well as preventing the return of empty vessels after a shipment.

Indonesia’s logistics sector is vital to the country’s future by ensuring more balanced economic development across the archipelago. In spite of these challenges, the logistics sector has shown resilience and adaptability; yet, as the local companies strive to move up the product value chain they will require more sophisticated logistics services and technology to serve the local as well as international market.
