JAKARTA - The Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) encourages PT Danareksa (Persero) and several other regional state-owned companies to strengthen productive and sustainable coastal planning and development through strategic cooperation.
In signing a cooperation agreement between the Directorate General of Marine Spatial Planning of the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) and Danareksa to develop coastal areas in Jakarta, Tuesday, July 15, Expert Staff for Industry at the Ministry of SOEs Andus Winarno said that developing an economic area is an effort to create space certainty for investment and cross-sectoral development.
"PT Danareksa is expected to be able to provide support and assistance in policy preparation, as well as regulations for structuring coastal areas that are integrated with regional economic development," said Andus, quoted by Antara.
Andus said that Danaraksa encourages an increase in the economic capacity of coastal communities through innovative and inclusive financing schemes.
Danareksa will also provide business matching facilities or business assessments between potential investment and use of marine space.
In addition, the company will conduct a study in the development of coastal and sea areas that carry the value of a blue economy oriented towards disaster risk mitigation and take sides with the environmental social governance (ESG) principles.
According to Andus, the active role of all stakeholders is the key in encouraging inclusive and broad-impact blue economy growth, so as to accelerate the achievement of the vision of Indonesia Gold.
Furthermore, Andus said Indonesia has extraordinary marine potential, but it has not been utilized optimally.

According to him, one of the causes is the unintegrated ecological function of marine space with economic activity so that the development of the marine sector is still sectoral.
He emphasized that the spatial planning approach is the main prerequisite in the transformation towards a blue economy. Therefore, cross-sector connectivity is needed.
"The Ministry of SOEs views that spatial planning is a strategic instrument in building cross-sector connectivity between conservation and productivity, between the central government and local governments, as well as between the role of state institutions and the participation of the business world," he added.
