JAKARTA - Secretary General of the Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin) Eko SA Cahyanto held a meeting with Deputy Minister of Industry and Information Technology of the People's Republic of China (RRT) Wang Jiangping at the Ministry of Industry office, Jakarta, on Wednesday, September 25.
This follows a meeting between the Minister of Industry (Memperin) Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita and the Minister of Industry and Information Technology of RRT Jin Zhuanglong in Beijing, in June 2024.
At the meeting, the Minister of Industry conveyed the very strategic business situation in Indonesia for Chinese companies to carry out their industrial activities.
Eko said that his party encourages cooperation between Indonesia and China in the development of downstreaming and the realization of the green industry in Indonesia.
In addition, the Ministry of Industry also proposed cooperation with China in the photovoltaic industry and jointly rearranged the governance of the smelter industry, which was partly built by companies from the bamboo curtain country.
"We hope that the visit of the Deputy Minister of Industry and Information Technology of the RRT this time will improve and strengthen good relations between the two countries, especially in strengthening cooperation in the industrial sector," said Eko in a written statement, Friday, September 27.
He considered that the desire for cooperation in the photovoltaic field was due to the consideration of China's new and renewable energy (EBT) progress and to realize its commitment to reducing emissions as a joint mission for countries in the world.
"To increase the depth of the photovoltaic product industry for Indonesia, the Indonesian side invites the silica processing industry and Chinese photovoltaic components to invest in Indonesia," he said.
It doesn't stop there, said Eko, his party also pays great attention to the governance of the smelter industry owned by Chinese companies, where many have built industrial estates and smelters, especially nickel in the regions of Central Sulawesi, Southeast Sulawesi and North Maluku.
"We view the need for governance reform, including through intense guidance and supervision of industrial estates and the smelter industry," said Eko.
The goal is to improve the quality of industrial management according to applicable standards nationally and internationally.
Regarding industrial downstreaming, there are currently six minerals that have great potential to be developed in Indonesia, namely Molibdenum, Antimon, Chromium, Kobalt, Lithium and Rare Earth Metals.
The government has also implemented policies in accordance with the regulations in Law Number 3 of 2020 concerning Amendments to Law Number 4 of 2009 concerning Mineral and Coal Mining as well as other derivative regulations in the context of implementing the Roadmap Downstream Metal Mineral Mineralization.
According to Eko, mineral downstreaming cannot be separated from efforts to implement sustainable principles. Indonesia itself has green industry standards with three pillars of green industrialization, including increasing sustainable industrial structure, increasing energy efficiency in all stages of production and promoting energy transition and circular economy.
"Indonesia opens opportunities for cooperation with China in order to create a green industry, especially in the steel industry sector," he said.
