Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil said that West Java has advantages in terms of human resource productivity for facilities and infrastructure. That is why he claims, if companies or factories that have moved from West Java due to high wages, now regret it.
The general secretary of the Association of Producers of Fibers and Filament Yarn (Apsyfi), Redma Gita Wiraswasta, acknowledged that the relocation of the Heavy Java factory to Central Java had an impact on several things. One of them is the problem of worker productivity in the new place. Workers who have worked in factories in West Java have more skills because they are used to them and their long-trained skills.
“Because in West Java they have been trained, the garment workforce is between 5 and 10 years old, so they can work quickly. If there are new workers (Central Java) who need adaptation, surely productivity will not be the same here (West Java). management and the system (good) but still the experience of the name cannot be the same as in West Java, “Redma told CNBC Indonesia, Friday (23/10).
To increase worker productivity, you need experience. Therefore, workers who are just starting work must have time to increase this productivity. The same is true for entrepreneurs, whether they regret it or not, it depends on how the calculations are done.
“But in the end they are only calculations, if the productivity is 10, for example, the wage level is 9, if it goes down, for example, the productivity of 8 wages is 6 or 7, just counting them,” said Redma.
Ridwan Kamil highlighted the phenomenon of relocating factories from West Java. He admitted that several factories that had moved to other provinces due to low wages admitted that they were sorry. This is because productivity in these other provinces is lower than in West Java.
“(Factories) that have moved to other provinces also regret it. Wages may be cheap, but productivity is low,” said Kang Emil, the nickname for Ridwan Kamil in the advancement discussion for regional chiefs amid a pandemic and CNBC Indonesia Indonesia Award for Best Regional Leaders, Friday (10/23/2020).
He explained that West Java is one of the best provinces in real sector investment activities. This is because the West Java infrastructure is the most complete and the human resources are highly productive.
This infrastructure will be added to the port of Patimban, which is scheduled to be inaugurated by President Joko Widodo in the near future for phase one. Kang Emil hopes that Patimban Port can start exporting immediately after the opening.
“The cost in Indonesia is estimated to be expensive because the cost from the factory to Tanjung Priok is more expensive than that from Tanjung Priok to Shanghai,” he explained.
