JAKARTA - The uncertain condition of China due to the prolonged lockdown and the Ukraine-Russia war has made East Java an alternative by investors from the Bamboo Curtain country. However, the chairman of the DPD RI, AA LaNyalla Mahmud Mattalitti, hopes that the incoming investment will benefit many people.
The appointment of East Java as an alternative transfer of investment from China was revealed by the President of the Srilanka China Trade and Investment Council, Sun LaiYung I, during a visit to Graha Kadin East Java, Surabaya, some time ago.
Some areas that are quite in demand by Chinese investors include electric vehicles, toll road infrastructure development, solar or electric power, wind power electricity and other new and renewable energy.
Responding to this, LaNyalla reminded that incoming investment should benefit the community a lot, as the economic principle set out in Pancasila. LaNyalla explained, in Pancasila, the economy is directed as much as possible for the welfare of the people.
"Investasi itu tidak boleh hanya menguntungkan sebesar orang saja. Investasi harus memberikan manfaat untuk masyarakat," kata LaNyalla, dalam keterangan tertulis yang diterima VOI pada Sabtu 19 November.
The senator from East Java assessed that the opportunity for the transfer of investment needs to be properly captured by the East Java Provincial Government. The chairman of the East Java Kadin Advisory Board continued, the economic stability and resources owned as well as local market opportunities for the East Java industrial area must continue to be developed.
However, LaNyalla hopes that the investment will be an investment that grows the industry while still paying attention to the environment.
Investments that are not only oriented businesses, but still pay attention to and maintain the survival of humans and the surrounding environment, encourage increased Human Resources (HR) and improve the standard of living of the community.
"It is highly unexpected that investment ultimately damages the environment and does not provide any benefit to the surrounding community. But it only benefits a handful of people. This is what is not expected, whatever the type of investment," said AA LaNyalla Mahmud Mattalitti.
