JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of the Indonesian Parliament Rachmat Gobel asked the government to be consistent in promoting and developing domestic products, not just a slogan of love for domestic products.

Quoted from Antara, Wednesday, March 17, Rachmat Gobel conveyed this during his visit to PT Krakatau Steel at the Royale Krakatau Hotel Convention Hall, Cilegon, Tuesday.

Rachmat Gobel's arrival was received directly by the board of directors of PT Krakatau Steel, including KS Silmy Karim President Director, Production Director Djoko Muliono, Business Development Director Purwono Widodo, and Commercial Director Melati Sarnita.

The visit of Deputy Chairman of the Indonesian Parliament Rachmat Gobel to PT Krakatau Steel was accompanied by members of the Indonesian Parliament from commission V and commission VI.

Rachmat Gobel said that as a large country, it must have the vision to build an industry, not just encouraging investment in building factories or creating jobs.

"Factories and industries are similar but not the same. Factories have workers, buildings, and raw materials which are then processed to produce goods while the industry is a complex matter, including human resource development and the environment", said Rachmat.

He asked the board of directors of PT Krakatau Steel to implement a strategic industry so that PT Krakatau Steel could continue to survive, be able to reduce imports, and not suffer losses.
