Jokowi-JK's National Strategic Projects Require Private Sector Involvement

To boost economic growth, the government is accelerating strategically important projects with high economic impact, prioritizing their realization within a shorter timeframe. National Strategic Projects (PSN) are selected and supervised by the Committee for the Acceleration of Priority Infrastructure Provision (KPPIP) and are established through the Regulation of the Coordinating Minister for the Economy.

The investment value of PSN is estimated to reach Rp 4,197 trillion. Of this amount, only Rp 525 trillion (12.2 percent) can be financed by the government through the State Budget (APBN). Meanwhile, financing from State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) and Regional-Owned Enterprises (BUMD) is approximately Rp 1,258 trillion (30 percent). Therefore, there is still an investment shortfall of Rp 2,414 trillion (57.8 percent) of the total PSN financing, requiring the participation of the private sector.
