Airlangga Opens His Voice Regarding The Fate Of 42 Unpretented PSNs In The Jokowi Era
Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto opened his voice regarding 42 National Strategic Projects (PSN) that were not completed during the administration of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) to be continued by the next government Prabowo Subianto - Gibran Rakabuming Raka.
Airlangga ensured that 42 PSNs whose construction process has not yet been completed will continue during the Prabowo - Gibran leadership. This is because the 42 PSNs have entered the development process which will be continued during the new government leadership period
"The 42 ones will definitely be continued due to under construction," said Airlangga in the National Working Meeting on Acceleration and Pre-Evaluation of PSN, Tuesday, May 14.
Airlangga said the 42 PSNs would continue because they had received certainty of funding or financial close.
"What is not completed this year is in the form of construction to be continued, and financial closing has been completed, what has not been continued has been stopped because it has not been construction," he said.
In addition, this year, Airlangga targets the government to complete 41 National Strategic Projects (PSN) by the end of 2024 with a total value of IDR 554 trillion.
"Of the 41 PSN worth Rp554 trillion, it is expected to be completed in 2024," said Airlangga at the PSN Acceleration and Pre-Evaluation National Working Meeting, Tuesday, May 14.
Airlangga, in total, cumulatively since 2016, there have been 198 projects that will be completed in 2024 with a total realization of Rp1,614 trillion. Namely 32 projects and 10 partially operational programs and 44 projects and 3 programs are still in the construction stage.
According to Airlangga, this has an impact on the National economy, namely the absorption of 2.71 million workers, and attracting an investment of IDR 3,344 trillion.
