The excitement of development in West Java will be felt by the end of next year

BANDUNG, jakarta.suaramerdeka.com - West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi stated that the development he has undertaken since his inauguration will only be felt by the end of 2026. This includes job creation. According to him, his administration is currently boosting infrastructure development, especially roads. Meanwhile, investment trends are also increasing. "This can be seen from the increasing infrastructure and investment graphs, and this will generate significant growth rates, and the results will be felt by the end of 2026," he stated on the sidelines of "Jabar Econovation: Accelerating West Java's Economy & Innovation Towards Golden Indonesia 2045" at Gedung Sate Bandung on Wednesday, November 19, 2025. "Well, that will be seen because then labor recruitment will begin, production will begin to produce new products, and then growth rates will also increase," he added. He is optimistic that the target can be achieved, considering that West Java has continued to show a positive economic trend throughout this year. He said this momentum can be maintained and even become a breakthrough. The key is collaboration among all stakeholders. "Previously, economic growth was always below the national average, but today we are above the national average. This means there is collaborative performance from the regional government to the provincial government, and also the business community," he explained. As an effort to maintain this trend, Dedi Mulyadi also stated that his team will pay attention to detail. This will ensure unnecessary mistakes are avoided. "I've noticed, from several visits to assess development progress, that the problem is always that the consultants don't understand. So, it's possible that the consultants are recruiting people who aren't very capable, who can see development progress, and most of them are older," he explained. Therefore, his team will encourage vocational high school graduates to fill these positions. The prerequisite is that the schools must provide truly applicable and technically-driven lessons.

Bright Optimism for West Java's Economy in 2024: Superior Investment and Exports, Stable Growth Projections

Jabartrust, Bandung – West Java's economy enters 2024 in a bright light. In the latest review, data shows that economic growth still radiates positive light. In the period January to September 2023, West Java investment and exports experienced a significant increase, even reaching the highest position at the national level. Head of the West Java Province Industry and Trade Service, Noneng Komara Nengsih, revealed that investment realization reached IDR 137.2 trillion in that period. With only three months remaining in 2023, West Java remains optimistic that its investment will lead nationally. The industrial sector is the main pillar of growth, accounting for more than half of total investment. Optimism for the West Java processing industrial sector next year is fueled by various factors, including global economic recovery, strong domestic demand growth and high investment in the sector. Improving global conditions also provide a breath of fresh air. With gradual recovery from the impact of the pandemic and projected economic growth increasing from 2.8 percent to 3 percent due to increasing global demand, West Java can further optimize its export potential. In addition, the stability of controlled inflation, falling from 6.17 percent to 2.85 percent in November 2023, gives hope for an increase in people's purchasing power and higher domestic demand. Not only that, West Java also made an achievement as the largest contributor to exports in the period January to October 2023, recording a surplus of US$ 20.57 billion in its Trade Balance. Bank Indonesia estimates that West Java's economic growth will remain positive in 2024, ranging from 4.9 percent to 5.7 percent, despite uncertainty in the global economy. The agricultural and consumption sectors are predicted to experience significant strengthening. However, challenges are inevitable. Erwin Gunawan Hutapea from Bank Indonesia highlighted the importance of price stability and increasing public consumption, especially in the series of Presidential Elections, Legislative Elections and Regional Head Elections which have the potential to encourage consumption. In an effort to encourage economic growth, Bank Indonesia has prepared seven policy recommendations. These include efforts to control food inflation, maintain people's purchasing power, accelerate infrastructure development, and strengthen new sustainable economic sectors. With these various strategic steps, Bank Indonesia projects that West Java's economy will continue to thrive in 2024, giving hope for sustainable progress for this province. (SOURCE)

Indonesia's economy remains strong amid global uncertainty

Governor of Bank Indonesia (BI) Perry Warjiyo speaks during the Announcement of the Results of the June 2024 BI Board of Governors Meeting in Jakarta, Thursday (20/6/2024). ANTARA/Martha Herlinawati Simanjuntak Jakarta (ANTARA) - Bank Indonesia (BI) said Indonesia's economic growth remains strong amid global uncertainty, supported by the policy mix of Bank Indonesia and the government. "Private consumption grew well along with maintained purchasing power and strong consumer confidence," BI Governor Perry Warjiyo said in the Announcement of the Results of the June 2024 BI Board of Governors Meeting here on Thursday. In addition, Perry said investment increased, both building and non-building investment, in line with the continuation of government infrastructure projects and improved private investment. Increased domestic demand in the second quarter of 2024 was reflected in the positive performance of a number of household consumption and investment indicators, such as the Consumer Confidence Index, Real Sales Index, and Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI). Furthermore, goods exports increased driven by an increase in mining and manufacturing exports to major trading partners, such as China and India. Services exports also improved on the back of economic recovery in the countries of origin of foreign tourists. (SOURCE)

Opening of Purbaleunyi toll gate KM 149-151 accelerated

West Java Regional Secretary Herman Suryatman said the opening of the Purwakarta-Bandung-Cileunyi (Purbaleunyi) KM 149 and 151 toll gates in the Gedebage area, Bandung, will soon be accelerated. "We checked the field the other day with the Coordinating Ministry for Marves and the Ministry of Public Works, and we agreed to accelerate," Herman said in Bandung on Monday. As an acceleration step, Herman explained that he asked the Bandung City Government to conduct a traffic environmental impact assessment (EIA) study related to the opening of the toll gate. He asked that the EIA study be completed within a week, so that the Ministry of Transportation could immediately conduct a study to immediately decide, referring to the EIA results. "Hopefully with this careful study, with a feasibility study (FS) there will be a follow-up. Hopefully it can be accelerated, because our target is not to take long," he said. The road access is known to be strategic because it can be an important access to the GBLA Stadium, Al Jabbar Grand Mosque, Summarecon business and residential areas, to the Whoosh Tegalluar Fast Train Station, and to areas in eastern Bandung. Previously, the West Java Bina Marga Office said that the KM 149 Purbaleunyi toll gate still had to be repaired by involving the PUPR Ministry. Therefore, the KM 149 toll gate will be closed again starting in early 2024, after being functionally opened only during the day. "The target for the repair of exit 149 by the Ministry of PUPR is to complete construction in December 2024 and temporarily operate after a loading test," said Head of the West Java Bina Marga Spatial Planning Office Bambang Tirtoyuliono in the social media of the West Java Bina Marga Office about a month ago.
