investment hospital

The government would open the door for the entry of foreign hospitals to compete with the national hospital. Head of Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Wiryawan Gita says, when the first foreign hospital only in Medan and Surabaya, it will be opened in Indonesia.

Hopefully, the opening of foreign hospitals in Indonesia will push the waste of foreign exchange resulting from a citizen of Indonesia (WNI) are treated abroad. "Indonesians seeking overseas treatment is reduced and vote in the country," says Gita.

According to him, many Indonesians currently seeking a good overseas Singapore, Hong Kong and other countries. "It's too bad," he said. This policy is also an effort to empower the quality and capabilities of the national hospital.

Gita admit, this time it was brewing government revision perpres negative list of investment (dni). Hopefully, the revision of the rules of this effort will be finalized in the near future. In addition to the health sector, there are four other sectors that will be changed from the initial rules, especially regarding the amount of foreign ownership, the education sector, telecommunications, courier services (logistics), and the creative industries.

For the health sector, foreign hospitals are built in Indonesia may not be 100 percent owned by foreign investors. The government only allows foreign ownership limit of 67 percent both in the hospital or to other supporting facilities required.

In addition, the government also requires the use of foreign medics will be reduced within a certain period. It was intended to be a transfer of technology and the ability Indonesian medical workers. "Restricted the amount of labor is also based on the spirit of nationalism.

Govt to resume Karaha Bodas power project

State oil and gas company Pertamina will resume next year the long delayed geothermal power plant project at Karaha Bodas in Garut, West Java, says an official of Pertamina’s subsidiary. Pertamina was ready to fund the project that would cost between US$50 and 60 million. The project will be funded by a corporate loan, from Pertamina to its subsidiary [PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy - PGE]

Karaha Bodas was originally a joint project between Pertamina, state power company PLN and the US-based Karaha Bodas Company. 

Before postponement during the 1997-8 economic crisis, the Karaha Bodas Company and geothermal power plant were controlled by two US companies –Florida Power Energy LLC and Caithness Energy LLC. 

It was part of a package of 21 power projects reviewed by the government in 1997. Karaha Bodas was then delayed because of problems related to the economic crisis. 

But the delay led to a string of arbitration proceedings, including one filed by Karaha Bodas.
Pertamina argued the delay reflected recommendations of the International Monetary Fund (IMF).  PGE had finished the feasibility study and the Karaha Bodas project should start up in 2013. The power plant will have a 30 megawatts capacity, but open for capacity expansion if needed

The resumed Karaha Bodas project is owned by PGE and is part of the state owned power utility PLN’s second-phase 10,000 MW power generation crash program. 

Projects under the first 10,000 MW program belong to PLN, but the second 10,000 MW program includes projects with independent power producers (IPPs). 

The total project capacity of the second program will be about 9,963 MW. The IPPs are expected to generate about 40 percent of this total capacity. 

The first-phase program was launched in 2006 to meet power shortages and increasing demand for electricity nationwide, especially for the Java-Bali system. 

It is planned geothermal energy will play an important role in the second phase of the crash program. 

Geothermal energy is expected to power nearly half of the projects in the second phase program. Hydro-power will account for 1,174 MW, with coal and gas providing the remaining 4,056 MW. 

Abadi said PGE will sell power from Karaha Bodas to PLN. But we haven’t [yet] had a negotiation with PLN concerning the rate and the sales price for geothermal power is between 7 and 9 US cents per Kwh.
