BorneoTribun.com - Proper road infrastructure is essential to support production activities in an area, President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo has said.

The President made the statement on Friday (02/04), after inspecting Liang Melas Datas Road in Karo regency, North Sumatra province, which is an access to orange-producing area Orange Village.

“After observing on the ground, proper roads are highly needed because it deals with the cost structure of oranges. If the price of oranges is Rp5,000, the delivery fee must not reach Rp8,000. It will not add up,” he said.

The President expressed hope that the repair of Liang Melas Datas Road can reduce the logistics cost to produce oranges in the area, so the price of oranges produced by local farmers can compete with that of imported oranges.

“We hope that with this production road repair, the cost structure, especially for logistics fees, logistics cost can decrease, so oranges can be sent to all cities with a competitive price and can compete with imported oranges,” he said, adding that the repair will also increase profits for farmers.

Therefore, the Government will continue to repair production roads to make the prices of domestic commodities more competitive, he added.

“It has been calculated by Minister of Public Works [and Public Housing] that we need approximately 40,000 kilometers of production roads that need repairing, building so that the cost structure, especially logistics cost can fall to a truly normal price,” he said.

The President has also ordered Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy Sandiaga Uno to improve the packaging and branding of all commodities produced by farmers in the country so that they have a higher sales value.

“I order for better packaging, better brand building, and quality check for every orange. All of this will increase the sales prices of our farmers’ products,” he said.

Data from Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing shows that the repair of 37.2-kilometer-long Liang Melas Datas Road will require a budget of Rp164.8 billion and take up two years of working period, from fiscal year 2022 to 2023.

The road repair is expected to bring real benefits for local communities in shortening traveling time, decreasing logistics fees, facilitating agricultural commodity transportation, and support the development of Liang Melas Datas and its surrounding areas, as well as boost the economic growth of Karo regency.(*)

West Kalimantan Provincial Government Public Relations Called Not Functioning, Midji Furious Only Good at Taking Photos Here and there

West Kalimantan Governor Sutarmidji.

Borneo Tribun Pontianak, West Kalimantan - West Kalimantan Governor Sutarmidji is furious with the performance of public relations within the West Kalimantan Provincial Government. Public relations, which is actually the mouthpiece of the government, is actually considered not functioning.

This was conveyed by Midji while leading the commemoration ceremony for the 65th Anniversary of the West Kalimantan Provincial Government, last Friday.

“So far, I say that public relations is not functioning properly because of a lack of understanding. There are only good at taking pictures here and there, and there are no good photos,” said Midji.

According to Midji, this is not right. This is because, he stressed, there are many programs and developments that have been achieved by the West Kalimantan Provincial Government, which are not widely known by the public.

“Humas is the mouthpiece of what the West Kalimantan Provincial Government has done. We've done a lot of things but nothing has ever been properly exposed. So I have to expose myself via my social media accounts, this is actually not true. If we talk about what the provincial government has done, PR must speak up," he said.

He also emphasized that public relations should no longer be filled with people who do not have extensive knowledge. Because, according to Midji, public relations is a place for creative, innovative, and broad-minded people.

“Understanding the intricacies of the economy, social life with development and so on. That is the function of public relations,” he concluded.(*)

Officially Signed, This is the Timeline of the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement

BorneoTribun Jakarta – The Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Treaty was officially signed on Tuesday (25/01/2022), in Bintan, Riau Islands. The agreement was signed by the Indonesian Minister of Law and Human Rights (Menkumham) Yasonna H. Laoly and the Minister of Home Affairs and Singapore's Minister of Law K. Shanmugam and witnessed by Indonesian President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and Singaporean Prime Minister (PM) Lee Hsien Loong.

Menkumham Yasonna Laoly explained that the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement had a retroactive period (retroactive from the date of its promulgation) for the past 18 years. This is in accordance with the provisions on the maximum expiration as stipulated in Article 78 of the Indonesian Criminal Code.

"In addition to the retroactive period, this Extradition Agreement also agrees that the determination of the nationality of the perpetrator of a crime is determined at the time the crime is committed. This is to prevent the privileges that may arise as a result of changing the nationality of the perpetrator of a criminal act in order to avoid legal proceedings against him, "said Yasonna after the signing.

According to this Extradition Agreement, there are 31 types of criminal acts whose perpetrators can be extradited, including corruption, money laundering, bribery, banking, narcotics, terrorism, and the financing of activities related to terrorism.

“Indonesia has also succeeded in convincing Singapore to agree on an Extradition Treaty that is progressive, flexible, and anticipatory towards the current and future developments, forms and modes of criminal acts. The Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement allows both countries to extradite criminals who, although the types of crimes are not explicitly stated in this agreement, have been regulated in the legal systems of the two countries," he explained.

Yasonna explained that the scope of the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement is that both countries agree to extradite any person found to be in the territory of the requested country and sought by the requesting country for prosecution or trial or execution of punishment for extraditable criminal acts.

"This extradition agreement will create a deterrence effect for perpetrators of criminal acts in Indonesia and Singapore," he said.

In addition, continued the Minister of Law and Human Rights, the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement will narrow the space for criminals in Indonesia to escape. This is because Indonesia already has agreements with partner countries in the region, including Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam, Australia, the Republic of Korea, the People's Republic of China, and Hong Kong SAR.

In particular, for Indonesia, the enactment of the Extradition Agreement can effectively reach perpetrators of past crimes and facilitate the implementation of Presidential Decree of the Republic of Indonesia Number 6 of 2021 concerning the Task Force for Handling State Collection Rights for Bank Indonesia Liquidity Assistance Funds.

Prior to the official signing of the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement, the Indonesian government had begun working on it since 1998. Following is the timeline for the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement:

1. Efforts to establish the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Treaty have been initiated by the Government of Indonesia since 1998 at every opportunity, both in bilateral and regional meetings with the Government of Singapore.

2. On December 16, 2002, at the Bogor Presidential Palace, West Java, Indonesian President Megawati Soekarnoputri and Singaporean Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong held a bilateral meeting to discuss matters relating to the development of cooperation between the two countries in all fields. One of the outcomes of the meeting was an agreement that Indonesia and Singapore would draw up an action plan or an action plan for the establishment of the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Treaty.

3. On 27 April 2007, at the Tampaksiring Palace, Bali, the Indonesian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hassan Wirajuda and Singaporean Foreign Minister George Yeo signed the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement witnessed by Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Singaporean PM Lee Hsien Loong .

4. The Indonesia – Singapore Extradition Treaty signed in 2007 cannot be enforced by the two countries because the Governments of Indonesia and Singapore have not ratified the Treaty.

Note: The reason the two countries have not ratified the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Treaty is because the Governments of Indonesia and Singapore agreed that the ratification of the Extradition Treaty be carried out in parallel with the ratification of the Indonesia-Singapore Security Cooperation Agreement. In its development, Commission I of the Indonesian House of Representatives for the period of 2004 – 2009 in a Working Meeting with the Indonesian Foreign Minister on June 25, 2007, refused to ratify the Security Cooperation Agreement that had been signed so that it had an impact on the ratification process of the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Treaty.

5. On October 8, 2019, the Indonesia-Singapore Leaders' Retreat was held to re-discuss the Agreement to Adjust the Indonesia-Singapore Flight Information Area Boundary (Realignment Flight Information Region/FIR) and the Security Cooperation Agreement.

6. Following up on the results of the 2019 Leaders' Retreat, the Indonesian Minister of Law and Human Rights then proposed that the Extradition Agreement which was paralleled from the beginning with the Security Cooperation Agreement was also re-discussed in the framework for discussion.

7. The Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement was signed at the Indonesia-Singapore Leaders' Retreat, in Bintan, Riau Islands, January 25, 2022.

BorneoTribun Jakarta – During the meeting of Indonesian President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) with Singapore's Prime Minister (PM) Lee Hsien Loong, Tuesday (25/01/2022) yesterday, in Bintan, Riau Islands, the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Treaty was signed. The agreement, which the Indonesian government has begun working on since 1998, was signed by the Indonesian Minister of Law and Human Rights (Menkumham) Yasonna H. Laoly and the Minister of Home Affairs and Singapore's Minister of Law K. Shanmugam.

"After going through a very long process, the Indonesia-Singapore extradition agreement can finally be implemented," said Yasonna, in a release accessed on the official website of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, Wednesday (26/01/2022).

The Minister of Law and Human Rights explained that the scope of the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement was that both countries agreed to extradite any person found to be in the territory of the requested country and sought by the requesting country for prosecution or trial or execution of punishment for extraditable criminal acts.

"This extradition agreement will create a deterrence effect for perpetrators of criminal acts in Indonesia and Singapore," he said.

In addition, Yasonna continued, the existence of the Indonesia-Singapore Extradition Agreement will narrow the space for criminals in Indonesia to escape. This is because Indonesia already has agreements with partner countries in the region, including Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam, Australia, the Republic of Korea, the People's Republic of China, and Hong Kong SAR.

Meanwhile, Indonesia and Singapore have been bound by the Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters (MLA) Agreement between ASEAN member countries in 2008.

"If the two countries can immediately ratify the signed Extradition Treaty, law enforcement agencies of the two countries can take advantage of this Extradition Treaty in an effort to prevent and eradicate cross-border criminal acts such as corruption and terrorism," he said.
