JAKARTA - PT Semen Padang, a subsidiary of PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (SIG) stated that the Trans Sumatra toll road project is an "event" for companies to reap blessings.
"During the pandemic, one of the blessings in disguise at Semen Padang is the construction of the Trans Sumatra toll road, which has been running since 2019", Tubagus told reporters, quoted Friday, November 26.
Nevertheless, continued Tubagus, several projects that will be completed this year remain a challenge for Semen Padang's sales. To anticipate this, Semen Padang with the largest market share on the island of Sumatra is currently eyeing the export market potential for clinker and cement products.
"Sending cement to Australia is a form of anticipation to maintain performance so as not to be too depressed", said Tubagus.
