Jakarta | The government's move to establish a State-Owned Enterprise (BUMN) holding is believed to bring a multiplier effect on the enterprises within it. The implication is the strengthening of the national economy and increased budget efficiency.
Deputy Minister of BUMN for Strategic Industry, Mining, and Media Business, Fajar Harry Sampurno, stated that enterprises within the holding would support each other in all aspects.
He provided an example where a project would be divided among different enterprises according to their expertise, resulting in a multiplier effect. "Additionally, it also reduces dependence on State Capital Investment (PMN)," he said in Jakarta, Friday (18/3/2016).
Based on gathered information, the government is preparing around 15 BUMN holdings within the 2015-2019 period as an effort to position BUMN at the forefront of national development.
The prepared BUMN holdings include sectors such as tourism, logistics, food, plantations, fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, ports, construction and infrastructure, connectivity, mining, strategic defense, reinsurance, heavy industry, general insurance, banking, and survey services. (Source: okezone.com)
