Indonesia Facing Critical Period in Infrastructure Development - KOMPAS.com

Indonesia Facing Critical Period in Infrastructure Development - KOMPAS.com: "JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - The coming three years will be a very critical phase for Indonesia in the development of its infrastructure as it would only have two options, namely developing fast and strategic infrastructures or being trapped in structural and prolonged congestion.

The next three years until 2014 will be crucial for Indonesia’s infrastructure development. However, observers see that the government still has no solid policy in the field that would support the development of its infrastructures.

"The government’s latest policy in this sector such as a master plan for the acceleration and expansion of Indonesia’s economic development (MP3EI) has not yet been prepared well in the field," Suyono Dikun, a professor at the University of Indonesia, said on Thursday.

Failure to develop enough infrastructures in the country will cause congestion in different sectors, not only in the traffic one. "The congestion will happen not only on roads but also on railway tracks, ports, airports, power energy, irrigation, drinking water and others," Suyono said."
