Multinational companies join Jababeka's integrated industrial
\nestate<\/p>\n
Leading multinational companies have joined Indonesia's only
\nindependent, integrated industrial estate equipped with
\ncommercial, residential, educational and recreational facilities
\nin Cikarang, Bekasi, just a 35-minute drive east of Jakarta.<\/p>\n
"Multinational companies are interested in coming to our
\nindustrial estate because it offers easy accessibility, an
\nindependent supply of electricity, clean water, an abundant
\nresource of labor and competitive prices," says Setiawan
\nWiraatmadja, a director of PT Jababeka Industrial Estate.<\/p>\n
Developed on a 2,970-hectare area of land in 1989, Jababeka's
\nindustrial estate is now home to leading multinational companies,
\nsuch as the American manufacturer of Barbie dolls, Mattel, Inc.
\nThis company, the world's largest doll producer, operates two
\nfactories with about 10,000 workers, who live in two five-story
\ndormitories in the industrial estate. Another tenant is Dutch
\ncompany Unilever, a leader in the domestic consumer goods market.
\nBesides running a number of factories, it also operates a
\nlogistic and distribution service center in the estate. The other
\ntenants include French industrial gas producer Air Liquid,
\nJapanese TV screenmaker Nippon Electric Glass, British paint
\nproducer ICI Paints, Japanese consumer goods manufacturer Kao and
\nKorea's Samsung Electronics, the world's third largest home
\nappliance producer and 15th most wellknown brandname holder.<\/p>\n
Jababeka's industrial estate is strategically located merely a
\nfew minutes from the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road, just 35 km from
\nJakarta's Central Business District, 55 km from the Tanjung Priok
\nseaport and 65 km from the Soekarno-Hatta International Airport.
\nThe industrial estate is easily reached from the toll road
\nthrough the Cibitung or Cikarang exits. Public transportation
\nservices are available for commuters.<\/p>\n
Its location becomes even more strategic with its close
\nproximity to densely populated towns, such as Bekasi, Karawang
\nand Purwakarta, which can provide an abundant supply of labor.<\/p>\n
Executives and workers can live in Jababeka's residential
\nestate, equipped with all the amenities that guarantee a
\nconvenient life. They include shopping centers, mini markets,
\nbanks, restaurants, a hospital and medical center, schools, a
\nstar-rated hotel, a swimming pool, tennis courts and a first-
\nclass 18-hole golf course designed by champion Nick Faldo.<\/p>\n
Plans have been also made for the establishment of President
\nUniversity, which is said to be the premier provider of tertiary
\neducation in Indonesia, whose graduates and services will be
\nreadily accessible to tenants.<\/p>\n
"With such facilities, the Jababeka industrial estate is
\nactually a town within itself," Setiawan said.<\/p>\n
He said tenants were free from the worries of an adequate
\nsupply of electricity and clean water because power was provided
\nby affiliated company PT Cikarang Listrindo and clean water by
\nsubsidiary PT Jababeka Infrastruktur.<\/p>\n
Cikarang Listrindo operates a power plant with an installed
\ncapacity of 348 MW (expandable to 900 MW), while Jababeka
\nInfrastruktur operates a water treatment plant with a daily
\ncapacity of 26,500 cubic meters (expandable to 49,500 cubic
\nmeters). The latter company also operates a world-class sewage
\ntreatment plant with a daily capacity of 18,000 cubic meters
\n(expandable to 42,000 cubic meters).<\/p>\n
Setiawan says Jababeka puts a high priority on the safety and
\nsecurity of workers, executives and residents on its industrial
\nestate by providing well-maintained streetlights for its roads
\nand buildings and assigning guards to work on shifts for 24 hours
\na day. Jababeka also employs a special team of professional
\nfirefighters, while hydrants are made available in its industrial
\nand residential compounds.<\/p>\n
"If you want value for money in a quality industrial estate
\nwith a competitive price, you have no other choice than moving to
\nJababeka's industrial estate in Cikarang, West Java," Setiawan
\nsaid.<\/p>\n
He explained that Jababeka's industrial estate, with a full
\nproduct range of individual facilities and site sizes, could
\nsatisfy just about any tenants' needs.<\/p>\n
For manufacturers who require unique building specifications,
\nfor example, Jababeka allocates industrial land sites, which come
\nequipped with the basic infrastructure for development with
\nspecific purposes. The sites, with land areas ranging from 3,000
\nsquare meters to 5,000 square meters, are graded and well-
\nstructured, and suitable for any manufacturing activities.
\nTenants are guaranteed an unlimited power supply from Cikarang
\nListrindo, while industrial water, sewage system and telephone
\nlines are standard features.<\/p>\n
Large industrial sites with planned development for specific
\npurposes have attracted multinational companies, including
\nNabisco Foods of the United States, Chang Chun of Taiwan, Uniplas
\nof Singapore, United Tractors (Komatsu), Nissinmas, Showa, Fuji
\nSeimitsu and Tokai of Japan, Bertel of Australia and Fuchs of
\nGermany.<\/p>\n
Jababeka also designs and constructs several types of standard
\nfactory buildings ideal for medium and light industries.<\/p>\n
Built on a 1,380-square-meter plot of land for the standard
\nsize or a 1,740-square-meter plot for the one located on a
\ncorner, each building has an area of 831 square meters and an
\noffice area of 128 square meters.<\/p>\n
For smaller operations, there are convenient turnkey
\nalternatives that are ideal for trading businesses, workshops and
\nlight manufacturers.<\/p>\n
The three-in-one factory buildings, each with a total area of
\n456 square meters, for example, are suitable for storage or
\nproduction activities. Their mezzanine floors can be converted
\neither to accommodation or an administration office. Electricity
\nand clean water are supplied and a sewage system is provided.<\/p>\n
Supporting industrial buildings, each with a total built area
\nof 160 square meters, are designed specially for small and
\nmedium-sized home industries. They give maximum area utilization
\nwith an integrated section comprising production, office and
\nliving areas.<\/p>\n
