Jakarta (B2B) - Presiden Joko Widodo mencatat beberapa proyek unggulan yang akan menarik investasi asing, terkait dengan pengembangan poros maritim dengan menargetkan investor dari Amerika Serikat (AS).
"Kita akan membangun 24 pelabuhan laut," kata Menteri Koordinator Bidang Perekonomian, Indroyono Soesilo dalam US-Indonesia Investor Summit di Jakarta, Rabu (12/11).
Dia menambahkan, Pelabuhan Tanjung Priok akan menjadi contoh. Karena 2009 baru melayani 3,6 juta pelayaran per tahun dan akan membludak menjadi 50 juta pelayaran per tahun di 2017.
Dalam menggenjot investasi, Indroyono menyatakan, pemerintah berjanji membenahi proses perizinan yang berbelit-belit, menyederhanakannya secepat mungkin dari yang sebelumnya dirasakan 2-3 tahun, dan memberikan jaminan atau garansi kepada investor.
