The initiative aims to turn research into practical recommendations and help extend industrialisation, jobs and value creation beyond Java, including through agricultural and food-production cooperation in South Papua.",
        "content": "<p>He stressed that Indonesia needs to build more production hubs and\neconomic activity centers in various regions so that jobs, investment,\nand opportunities to improve welfare are not concentrated on Java\nIsland.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe next phase of transmigration must help drive industrialization\nbeyond Java,\u201d Suryanagara said in a statement issued here on\nTuesday.<\/p>\n<p>He said this concerns where Indonesia builds production capacity,\nwhere good jobs are created, and whether people across the archipelago\ncan share part in the nation\u2019s growth.<\/p>\n<p>Suryanagara invited the Institute of South-South Cooperation and\nDevelopment (ISSCAD) and Peking University to explore applied research\ncooperation to support the transformation of Indonesia\u2019s transmigration\nareas.<\/p>\n<p>He proposed a practical approach, namely selecting one or two\ntransmigration areas as sites for joint studies by Indonesian and\nChinese researchers and students.<\/p>\n<p>The research is proposed to cover mapping of economic potential and\nvalue chains, identifying investment barriers, labor skill needs, and\nthe technology best suited to the conditions of communities and\nareas.<\/p>\n<p>The result is expected to be not merely academic publications, but\npractical recommendations that the government, businesses, and\ncommunities can use in making development decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Suryanagara also highlighted opportunities to develop cooperation in\nagricultural research, technology, skills development, and food\nproduction systems in Salor and Wanam in Merauke District, South\nPapua.<\/p>\n<p>The two areas had previously been the focus of cooperation\nexploration between Indonesian and Chinese partners.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, developing transmigration areas required more than\nproviding settlements and land.<\/p>\n<p>Areas must also be connected to industrial activities, investment,\ntechnology, infrastructure, markets, and labor needs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA region must play a greater role than merely supplying raw\nmaterials. It must also be able to produce added value,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Related news: Transmigration minister to seek agricultural\ncooperation with China<\/p>\n<p>Translator: Aji, Kenzu<\/p>",
