The Kudus Regency Government, Central Java, is targeting an auction for a tobacco products industry center (SIHT) construction project or a cigarette production site starting in May 2024, after the previous year a fence and drainage were built. "The planning stage has begun, we hope that after Lebaran is over, so that in May 2024 it can begin to be auctioned off," said Head of the Manpower Office of Cooperatives and Small and Medium Enterprises Kudus Rini Kartika Hadi Ahmawati in Kudus, Antara, Wednesday, April 10. Of the several activity packages that will be carried out later, he said, some are through auctions and some are through electronic catalogs (e-catalog). Of course, he added, when going through e-catalog the process is faster, compared to through auctions whose stages are much longer. Meanwhile, the budget for building physical construction is Rp. 11.3 billion, sourced from funds for tobacco excise revenue (DBHCHT), to build four production warehouse units and one hangar for Customs and Excise. In addition, there are activities to make IPAL, continuation of the construction of mobile fences, front fences, wells, and road hardening.

With an area of 3.7 hectares in Klaling Village, Jekulo District, the plan is to build 15 units of cigarette production warehouses. However, the implementation is carried out in stages because it must adjust to the availability of the budget. Meanwhile, the activities of the previous year, namely the construction of a mobile fence, talud, and drainage with a budget provided of IDR 21 billion.
