JAKARTA - The government through the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) is said to be increasingly concerned in carrying out regional development-based infrastructure development.

Head of the PUPR Regional Infrastructure Development Agency (BPIW) Rachman Arief Dienaputra said this strategy could support creative financing schemes, especially the Government and Business Entity Cooperation (PPP) scheme.

The role of BPIW in the future is increasingly strategic in the planning and programming stages of infrastructure development. This encourages us to be able to continue to improve quality based on the development of government territory," he said in a press statement statement statement, Wednesday, November 9.

According to Arief, to achieve the intended target, collaboration with external parties and practitioners is needed in the fields of planning, regional development, and the implementation of infrastructure development.

For this reason, in addition to increasing capacity through various training and knowledge sharing, BPIW also needs input and experience related to real conditions for infrastructure development in the field.

"In this case, we synergize with PT Penjaminan Infrastruktur Indonesia (PII) as one of the practitioners in the field of implementing infrastructure development, especially in terms of financing," he said.

On the same occasion, the President Director of PII Wahid Sutopo said that cooperation with BPIW is an effort to answer big challenges in infrastructure development, especially in terms of financing.

"We all realize that there are limitations in the APBN in financing development so that alternative funding such as the KPBU scheme is very necessary," he said.

Wahid explained, PT PII as the Ministry of Finance's special mission vehicles (SMV) is committed to providing added value for sustainable development.

"Through the alternative methods that are made, we hope that the risks posed by infrastructure development planning can be minimized while still paying attention to the precautionary principle," he said.
