Nuclear Tech From S. Korea


S. Korea keen to sell nuclear technology to RI

South Korean President Lee Myung-Bak made a special request to Indonesian Coordinating Economic Minister Hatta Rajasa to visit South Korea's nuclear facility in Busan, on the sidelines of the latter's work visit to South Korea, on Tuesday.

“We were asked to undertake the visit,” Hatta said Tuesday in Busan, South Korea, as quoted by kompas.com.

“We hadn’t planned to visit the nuclear facility at all,” he added.
During the visit, Hatta was accompanied by other senior Indonesian officials including Industry Minister MS Hidayat, Investment Coordinating Board chief Gita Wirjawan, and National Economic Committee chairman Chairul Tanjung.

Hatta said Lee had wanted to promote South Korea's nuclear processing technology, which he said could be applicable in Indonesia.

Indonesia's Astra Pins Hopes on Inexpensive Cars

From Wall Street Journal Feb 14, 2013 PT Astra International plans to continue dominating Indonesia's booming car and motorcycle markets by spending billions of dollars on expansion and becoming the first auto maker to sell a car priced to reach the country's emerging middle class. Astra controls 54% of the passenger-car market through joint ventures with Japan's Toyota Motor Corp., Daihatsu Motor Co. and Isuzu Motor Ltd., and holds 58% of the motorcycle-and-scooter market through a joint venture with Honda Motor Co.  To expand the pool of Indonesians who can afford a car, Astra plans next quarter to introduce models with sticker prices as low as $8,000 through its joint ventures with Toyota and Daihatsu. Currently, the least-expensive passenger cars in Indonesia sell for at least $12,000. "We will be the first offering affordable vehicles," he said.

Indonesia’s economy faces gathering headwinds

From Bloomberg Dec 6, 2013 Indonesian policy makers are grappling with a depreciated exchange rate, elevated inflation and diminished foreign capital inflows undermining President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono’s legacy of economic stability before he steps down next year. His failure to fix infrastructure gaps in his two terms has added to price pressures, threatening his party’s chances at elections in 2014. The government will allow foreign ownership of as much as 100 percent on airports, airport services and ports, Mahendra Siregar, chairman of the Investment Coordinating Board, told reporters today. For ground and freight terminals, it may be as high as 49 percent, while a cap on overseas holdings in 10 other industries may be eased, he said. The World Bank said last month downside risks to Indonesia’s economic outlook are sizeable, as higher borrowing costs and inflation may have a greater-than-expected effect on domestic demand. Exports have dropped for 18 consecutive months. “Ext

Indonesia is managing the global recession better than most

Indonesia is managing the global recession better than most, thanks to its tough finance minister. Solenn Honorine and George Wehrfritz NEWSWEEK From the magazine issue dated Jan 19, 2009 Last month a financial tidal wave washed over Indonesia, but not the one kicked up by the global credit crisis. Money flooded into government coffers from individuals and corporations eager to avail themselves of Jakarta's "sunset policy" on tax delinquency, which forgave past evasions in exchange for good behavior going forward. The exact size of the surge isn't yet known, but economists estimate that tax receipts were up more than 50 percent for the year. "We saw quite a big jump" in revenue in December from "taxpayers who never existed [on the tax rolls] or want to correct mistakes made in the past," says the plan's creator, Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati. Indonesians, she adds, are honoring their tax obligations "in a much more accurate way.&q
