TRANSFORMASI PELABUHAN KELAS DUNIA (Versi Bahasa Indonesia).

(Sumber: JawaPos.com) – Merger PT. Pelindo I, II, III, dan IV semakin matang. Rencananya, merger ke-empat BUMN yang memiliki lini bisnis yang sama itu rampung akhir 2021. Fase Pertama merger itu akan berfokus pada transisi penyelarasan bisnis dan integrasi. Setelah itu berlanjut dengan ekspansi bisnis dan integrasi ekosistem pelabuhan kelas dunia pada tahun mendatang. Direktur Utama PT. Pelindo III Boy Robyanto menyebutkan, salah satu tujuan integrasi adalah mendorong pertumbuhan ekonomi nasional. Tim integrasi dan pemerintah telah membahas operasional perusahaan pascamerger. Ada empat klaster bisnis yang bakal dibentuk, yakni peti kemas, non-peti kemas, logistik dan hinterland development, serta klaster marine, equipment, sekaligus port services. Boy menegaskan, pengiriman barang via kapal akan lebih efektif karena konektivitas antar pelabuhan ke wilayah Indonesia. “Ini akan berdampak pada penurunan biaya logistik secara bertahap” ujarnya. Dengan integrasi, kinerja operasional di pelabuhan bakal terpacu, investasi usaha meningkat dan menciptakan lapangan kerja bagi masyarakat. “Jika terjadi merger, kami bisa memberikan daya tawar yang tinggi terhadap shipping line global, tambah Kartika Wirjoatmodjo, Wakil Menteri BUMN. “Inilah yang kami harapkan bisa masuk top 10 global player di container port sehingga dapat melakukan negosiasi untuk menarik traffic internasional dengan global shipping partner yang lebih kuat!”. Beberapa pakar kemaritiman menyambut baik rencana ini, seperti dari Institut Teknologi Surabaya, RO. Saut Gurning yang mengatakan tujuan utamanya adalah efisiensi biaya logistik nasional yang akan mendukung ekonomi negara. Penanganan kargo-kargo berorientasi internasional akan menjadi lebih baik.

Dari kacamata positif untuk pertumbuhan industri rantai pendingin (cold chain), ARPI menilai sudah waktunya penerapan skala internasional pelabuhan yang dikelola 4 BUMN ini dilaksanakan, karena dapat menyediakan lebih meratanya ketersediaan pangan ke seluruh wilayah yang membutuhan kontrol temperatur nya di setiap area transit yang terkoneksi dan terekam baik dalam data record yang handal. Cold Chain System yang terkoneksi dengan baik merupakan kata kunci dalam ketahanan pangan nasional. Plug-in equipment yang perlu disediakan di beberapa pelabuhan peti kemas, terutama di selain pelabuhan Tanjung Priok dan Tanjung Perak. Ini membutuhkan kolaborasi investasi yang baik. Hasil merger keempat BUMN tersebut harus dapat melahirkan sistem kolaborasi yang lebih kondusif di dalam memacu pertumbuhan industri cold chain dimana pelabuhan merupakan jantung industri. Dan seperti diketahui bahwa area produksi hasil laut dan perikanan dominasinya ada di wilayah Indonesia timur, sedangkan hasil hortikultura serta poultry dan red-meat ada di wilayah Indonesia Barat. Area konsumsi pangan 60% ada di pulau Jawa sesuai dengan penyebaran penduduk. Sebagai negara kemaritiman dan kepulauan, jalur transportasi laut memegang peranan penting dalam mendistribusikan pangan tersebut dari-ke-antar pulau, selain transportasi darat dan udara (yang menyiasati keterbatasan infrastruktur jalur laut di pelosok). “Saat ini baru 15% saja reefer container berperan dari total container nasional. Dalam 3-5 (tiga-lima) tahun kedepan, ARPI berharap peran tersebut dapat mencapai setidaknya 25% sesuai dengan kebutuhan dan program ketahanan pangan nasional (pengadaan dan harga pangan terjangkau sepanjang tahun) dan ketahanan pangan global didalam program zero hunger di tahun 2030. Dalam prediksi ARPI, industri cold chain di 10 (sepuluh) tahun kedepan akan tumbuh dengan CAGR 12,3%.

WORLD-CLASS PORT TRANSFORMATION (English Version).

(Source: JawaPos.com) – Merger of PT. Pelindo I, II, III, and IV are getting more mature. It is planned that the merger of the four SOEs with the same business lines will be completed by the end of 2021. The first phase of the merger will focus on the transition of business alignment and integration. After that, it will continue with business expansion and integration of world-class port ecosystems in the coming year. President Director of PT. Pelindo III Boy Robyanto said that one of the goals of integration is to encourage national economic growth. The integration team and the government have discussed post-merger company operations. There are four business clusters that will be formed, namely container, non-container, logistics and hinterland development, as well as marine, equipment, and port services clusters. Boy emphasized that shipping goods via ships would be more effective because of the connectivity between ports to Indonesian territory. “This will have an impact on reducing logistics costs gradually,” he said. With integration, operational performance at the port will be boosted, business investment will increase and create jobs for the community. “If a merger occurs, we can provide high bargaining power to global shipping lines,” added Kartika Wirjoatmodjo, Deputy Minister of SOEs. “This is what we hope to be in the top 10 global players in container ports so we can negotiate to attract international traffic with global shipping. a stronger partner!”. Several maritime experts welcomed this plan, such as from the Surabaya Institute of Technology, RO. Saut Gurning who said the main goal was national logistics cost efficiency that would support the country’s economy.

From a positive point of view for the growth of the cold chain industry, ARPI assesses that it is time for the implementation of an international scale port managed by these 4 SOEs, because it can provide more even distribution of food availability to all areas that require temperature control in every connected transit area well recorded in a reliable data record. A well-connected Cold Chain System is a key word in national food security. Plug-in equipment that needs to be provided at several container ports, especially in addition to the ports of Tanjung Priok and Tanjung Perak. This requires good investment collaboration. The results of the merger of the four SOEs should be able to give birth to a more conducive collaboration system in spurring the growth of the cold chain industry where ports are the heart of the industry. And as it is known that the dominance of marine and fishery production areas is in eastern Indonesia, while horticultural and poultry and red-meat products are in western Indonesia. 60% of food consumption area is on the island of Java according to the distribution of the population. As a maritime and archipelagic country, sea transportation routes play an important role in distributing food from-to-island, in addition to land and air transportation (which overcomes the limitations of sea lane infrastructure in remote areas). “Currently, only 15% of reefer containers play a role from the total national container. In the next 3-5 (three-five) years, ARPI hopes that this role can reach at least 25% in accordance with the needs and national food security programs (procurement and affordable food prices) throughout the year) and global food security in the zero hunger program in 2030. In ARPI’s prediction, the cold chain industry in the next 10 (ten) years will grow with a CAGR of 12.3%.
