04 August 2016
South Korean group Posco Daewoo, formerly the Daewoo International Corporation, has outlined an objective to expand defence collaboration with Indonesian industry.

The Indonesian Ministry of Defence (MoD) said on 3 August that it had discussed potential collaborative programmes with Posco Daewoo and its visiting president and chief executive officer, Kim Young-Sang.

Posco Daewoo is not a defence manufacturer but engages in exports and facilitates related collaboration activities on behalf of South Korean companies in sectors including defence, engineering, electronics, and metals.

In Indonesia the company was behind the export in 2010 of the 6x6 Black Fox armoured personnel carrier, which is produced by Hanwha Defence (formerly Doosan DST).

Airbus pushes A400M and Eurofighters in Indonesia
Jakarta | Thu, August 4 2016 | 08:05 pm

A team from Airbus Defence and Space, a unit of the Airbus Group, is in town this week to push for the sales of its products, including its signature A400M airlifter and the Eurofighter Typhoon heavy fighter, as Indonesia is looking to boost its weapons systems and diversify its sources.

Fernando Alonso, the head of the military aircraft division at Airbus Defence and Space, is meeting with top ministers, including Coordinating Political, Legal and Human Affairs Minister Wiranto, Coordinating Maritime Affairs Minister Luhut Pandjaitan and State Enterprises Minister Rini Soemarno. He will also make a visit to PT Dirgantara Indonesia (DI) in Bandung, West Java, the Indonesian state-owned aircraft maker that has a long history of collaboration with Spain’s CASA, which was absorbed by the Airbus Group in 2000.

Alonso said the Airbus unit he heads is already in the process of delivering the twin-turboprop tactical military transport C295 aircraft to Indonesia, which are partly built in Bandung.

Airbus is also looking at boosting sales of its other products in Indonesia, which is on a major spending spree to modernize its military hardware to reach what it calls a “Minimum Essential Force” by 2024.

The A400M, considered the most advanced airlifter, would be the most ideal short-range transportation aircraft for Indonesia, the largest archipelagic country in the world. Having made its debut in 2003, several European countries are already using the plane. In Asia, Malaysia has taken delivery of three units of the aircraft.

Airbus Defence and Space will be prepared to discuss the possibility of offsetting parts of the production of A400M with Indonesia since it has a long history of collaboration with PT DI, Alonso said.

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Indonesia will host the second International Meeting on Counter-Terrorism (IMCT) in Nusa Dua, Bali, on August 10, to strengthen international cooperation to address increased cross-border terrorism involving actors, information, and the flow of funds.

The Indonesian Foreign Affairs Ministrys Deputy Director for Counterterrorism, Gatot Amrih Djemirin, noted at a press briefing here on Thursday that President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) will deliver a keynote speech at IMCTs opening event.

Djemirin remarked that the meeting would be co-chaired by Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Wiranto and Minister for Justice Michael Keenan, who has also served as minister assisting the prime minister for counterterrorism.

"The outcomes of the meeting are expected to offer inputs on cross-border terrorism to the world," Djemirin noted.

The outcome document called the IMCT Chair-Statement, which offers information on the overall discussions held during the meeting, would be brought to the next level of regional and international meetings related to counterterrorism, including to the United Nations General Assembly in September.

As the host of the meeting, Indonesia has invited 35 countries, including the United States, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and the ASEAN member countries, among others. As many as 24 countries have confirmed their participation in the event.

Indonesia has also invited nine international organizations, including the United Nations on Drugs and Crime, United Nations Counterterrorism Executive Directorate, International Monetary Fund, World Bank, Egmont Group, INTERPOL, and EUROPOL.

Djemirin explained that the meeting will provide an opportunity for the participating countries to intensify collective efforts to fight terrorism, particularly with regard to the uncontrolled movement of terrorists.

This may include an exchange of views and the sharing of intelligence information, lessons learnt, and also best practices to fight terrorism, including terrorism financing, weapons smuggling, counter-radicalization, and deradicalization.

POSCO Daewoo has signed a $150 million contract with PT PAL, Indonesia’s state-run shipbuilder, to supply engines and other parts for the latter’s patrol boats and other naval vessels.

The trading arm of steelmaker POSCO held a ceremony, Wednesday, in Jakarta, where CEO Kim Young-sang signed a memorandum of agreement with PT PAL CEO Firmansyah Arifin.

Under the deal, POSCO Daewoo will provide the Indonesian shipbuilder with various components necessary for building 10 patrol boats and one combat support ship over the next few years. Once completed, the ships will be delivered to the Indonesian Navy.

“The latest contract shows that we have been successful in doing business in Indonesia and earned a great deal of trust from our partners there,” Kim said. “We will expand our reach to other areas of shipbuilding, such as offshore oil rigs, fishing vessels and cruise ships.”

In 2003, the company also signed a contract with PT PAL to supply engines and other parts for two landing platform docks (LPD). Between 2006 and 2010, POSCO Daewoo supplied tools and materials to the Indonesian shipbuilder for construction of LPDs, while sharing its knowhow with local partners.

The trading firm is also seeking to sign parts supply contracts with shipbuilders in Brazil and other South American nations.

A week after the Cabinet reshuffle, the State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) Ministry has replaced Silmy Karim, ending his two-year tenure as head of Indonesian arms manufacturer PT Pindad.

The government has appointed Abraham Mose, who previously served as president director of state-owned electronics manufacturer PT LEN Industri, to helm the state-owned arms producer.

The ministry’s deputy for mining, strategic industries and media, Fajar Harry Sampurno, said that Silmy had suceeded in improving the previous company’s performance, and therefore the government had decided to use his expertise to assist the operation of another SOE.

“Silmy has worked impressively in Pindad. We plan to promote him to lead another enterprise,” Fajar told journalists on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Abraham said that he would continue improving the company by developing various products, including non-military products.

“We will continue expanding our non-military product lines, such as excavators and rail clips, for extra income,” he said in a press statement. (rez/ags)

Indonesia's Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises announced on 3 August a change in the leadership of land systems specialist PT Pindad.

The ministry said that Silmy Karim, president director of PT Pindad since December 2014, has been replaced by Abraham Mose, the president director of another state-owned defence firm, PT Len Industri, which specialises in electronics and communications.

The new president director of PT Len Industri has not been announced.

A joint statement by the ministry and PT Pindad praised Karim for improving the company's production efficiency and supporting an increase in the value of awarded contracts, but said Karim is being "prepared for new positions in other state-owned companies".

It is very interesting to watch .. after green light by Jokowi ..that currently our state own companies are still in discussing with your gov't to take over at least 49% shares of PINDAD, PAL and PTDI in line with our support to Jokowi to develop the modern arm equipment manafacturers for both countries ...

For the beginning . we hope to assemble and manufacture new N219 in our new plant in Selangor and may be to change its name from N219 to N219 Murai ... We will also help PAL to build its new large drydocks and shipyard facilities in Lampung and also in Johor Baru .. so, we can order PAL to built our first heavy frigate and destroyer for our TLDM in 2019 ..

I believe that (with our money, expertise and network) ..we can assist Indonesia to expand and modernize its strategic industries so, we can sell it globally, especially to other islamic countries ...
