During the meeting, the two sides discussed trade cooperation, especially West Java coffee exports to Georgia. According to RK - as Ridwan Kamil is called -, approximately 90 percent of Georgia's coffee imports come from Indonesia, but not done directly. Therefore, through cooperation with West Java, it is expected that Georgia coffee imports can be done directly or direct trade from Indonesia. "We have just heard that 90 percent of the coffee turns out to come from Indonesia. So, we will immediately focus on exporting coffee, especially Robusta," RK said when met after the meeting. "Because it turns out that now Indonesia's coffee goes first to Western Europe and then sold to Georgia. So, the price is too expensive.""With him coming here we will change the model to direct trade of West Java farmers," he added.To follow up on the meeting, said RK, in the near future there will be a visit of coffee entrepreneurs from Georgia. Then, the entrepreneurs will meet directly with coffee farmers in West Java."There will be additional visits, coffee makers will come. I will later meet with farmers' cooperatives, so that there will just be a fair export-import," he said.In addition to coffee trade cooperation, Georgia is also interested in other things from West Java, such as bureaucratic reform and economic vision. In addition, there was a desire from Georgia to buy aircraft made by PT Dirgantara Indonesia (DI)."He (Ambassador Geoegia) chose West Java because there was a lot of positive news during the ten months (the leadership of Ridwan Kamil-Uu Ruzhanul Ulum in West Java), related to bureaucratic reform, economic vision, and others," said RK."He (Ambassador Georgia) is also interested in buying airplanes from PT DI and of course we will also see what we can buy (from Georgia) so that the trade balance is also balanced," he added.The same thing also said by H.E. Irakli Asashvili. He admitted, his meeting with the Governor of West Java was very meaningful. During the meeting, it was discussed about the export-import cooperation between Georgia and West Java, one of which was coffee."We discussed cooperation between Georgia and West Java. We discussed trade or export-import cooperation that might be possible, especially coffee," said Irakli."And we also talk about bureaucratic reform, we share information related to that," he added.According to Irakli, his meeting with the Governor of West Java was the first step in the planned visit of Georgian businessmen to West Java."This meeting is also a step for our preparation to conduct a business forum which will be attended by entrepreneurs from Georgia," he concluded. --------------------------HUMAS JABARHead of the Public Relations and Protocol Bureau of the Regional Secretariat of West Java Province Hermansyah

London ? Indonesia Infrastructure Investment Forum (IIIF) 2019 di London menjadi wadah Pemerintah Daerah Provinsi (Pemdaprov) Jawa Barat untuk memaparkan pertumbuhan perekonomian Jawa Barat sekaligus membuka peluang investasi dari luar negeri. Sekretaris Daerah Jawa Barat Iwa Karniwa yang juga ketua rombongan menyatakan bahwa banyak calon investor melirik perekonomian Jawa Barat karena mempunyai potensi besar, baik di bidang transportasi maupun non transportasi. ?Beberapa calon investor, yaitu Cross Rail International, mereka salah satu yg bisa mendatangkan atau mengkoordinasi potensial investor dan beberapa transportasi massa yang ada di London. Dan beberapa negara (monorail) adalah hasil dari mereka , mereka tertarik untuk melakukan kerja sama (dengan Pemdaprov Jawa Barat),? katanya. ?Yang kedua adalah dari One Work yang memang berpengalaman menangani integrasi pembangunan. Selama ini integrasinya cukup memberikan gambaran. Ini juga tadi pembahasannya cukup detil dan juga memberikan masukan kepada pembangunan di Jawa Barat,? lanjutnya. Selain Cross Rail International dan One Work, investor dari Spanyol yang berkantor di London, Basque Trade, juga telah menyatakan ketertarikannya untuk berinvestasi di Jawa Barat, khususnya di Aerocity dan Monorail. Ketertarikan tiga investor tersebut bukan tanpa alasan. Pada kuartal pertama tahun 2019, misalnya, pertumbuhan ekonomi Jawa Barat mencapai 5,5 persen. Persentase tersebut di atas rata-rata Pertumbuhan Ekonomi (PE) Nasional, yakni 5,18 persen. Infrastruktur di Jawa Barat pun, dengan keberadaan 5 Bandar Udara dan 9 Pelabuhan, mendukung roda investasi untuk terus berputar. Tidak mengherankan apabila Jawa Barat menyumbang kontribusi ekspor tertinggi nasional dengan realisasi investasi 16,2 persen dan kontribusi sektor manufaktur 24,4 persen. Skema kerja sama pemerintah dan Badan Usaha (KPBU) yang memungkinkan pihak swasta berkolaborasi langsung dengan Pemerintah Daerah dalam mengerjakan suatu proyek semakin memikat calon investor untuk berinvestasi di Jawa Barat. ?Gambaran Indonesia, khususnya Jawa Barat perkembangan ekonominya luar biasa. Saat saya berbicara dengan beberapa investor, mereka baru mengetahui bahwa Indonesia umumnya dan juga Jawa Barat menggambarkan suatu fenomena ekonomi yang luar biasa,? kata Iwa. ?Pesan pertama kepada investor-investor yang ada adalah tentang kemajuan yang merupakan market potensial investasi. Data-data sudah saya sampaikan dan mereka kagum, sehingga kita mendapat atensi dari para investor untuk melakukan kerja sama lebih lanjut,? lanjutnya. Kepala Perwakilan Bank Indonesia Jawa Barat Doni Joewono mengatakan, selain kondisi perekonomian yang baik, kemudahan-kemudahan yang diberikan Pemdaprov Jawa Barat kepada investor membuat daya tarik Jawa Barat kian besar. ?Kemudahan-kemudahan, izin-izin juga mudah. Tadi juga kita melihat tim yang dipimpin oleh Pak Sekda telah mepresentasikan project-project yang clean and clear, sehingga terlihat pada investor yang hadir, banyak kemungkinan project-project yang bisa diterapkan di Indonesia, khususnya Jawa Barat,? katanya. Dengan sistem Online Single Service, Pemdaprov Jawa Barat juga memberikan keringanan tarif import. Belum lagi skema tax holiday yang memberikan pengurangan pajak pendapatan. Dengan begitu, satu per satu investor mulai melirik perekonomian Jawa Barat. ?Jadi ini lah (contoh) salah satu kerja nyata. Diharapkan bisa berjalan dengan baik dan berharap para investor datang. Tidak hanya konsumsi tumbuh, tetapi juga investasi datang,? kata Doni.
