Indonesia and the Kyushu company 20 years of people connection

Mr. Umar Hamdan (center) who visited the training facility of Kyushu Electric and Mr. Kunihiro Sawada who guides it on the left side

■ "Because it is this country, I can do it"

　"If it was not here, I could never have realized it, in other Southeast Asian countries it was useless, as it was Indonesia, I could do it."

　Mr. Kunihiro Sawada, a technical adviser at the Kujidenko International Technology Office, emphasized. Beyond that gaze there was President Umar Hamdan of Indonesia's electric construction company "Denki Engineering".

　Kuen Denko operated the shipping power system combining sunlight and a lead storage battery on Sumba Island, Indonesia. Mr. Sawada was stationed in the field and commanded the construction. It was Mr. Umar's company that undertook actual construction such as construction, installation of equipment and wiring.

　The encounter between the two dates dates back 20 years ago.

　In 1997, Mr. Umar came to Japan as a technical intern trainee. The International Human Resources Development Organization (Tokyo) accepted Kujiden as a training place. Mr. Sawada was the leader there.

　Mr. Umar learned of Mr. Sawada from Iraha of electrical work for two years. The guidance was tough.

　"There is only memory that I got scolded at all, but since I had that era, I have myself now, but I can not go head to Mr. Sawada now."

　It was said that there were many cases that showed a pathway as to what technology is missing to himself, how to supplement it.

　After returning to Indonesia, I worked at an electrical construction company in Nikkei, and in 2007 I fulfilled the desire of my desire. I put "Denki" in company name was about thinking about the practice era in Japan.

　Upon entering Kyudenko's business in Indonesia, Mr. Umar first came to Mr. Sawada's mind. Kuen Denko left the construction to Mr. Umar.

　"The know-how of electrical construction does not change anywhere in the world.Still, the detailed method and the technical terms vary from country to country Because it is an Indonesian who knows the Japanese style like Mr. Umar, I can entrust it with peace of mind."

　Mr. Sawada said, Umar is noisy. The two are tied in deep trust.

　In addition to relationships such as friendship and trust, the Indonesian energy market is full of business appeal.

　Indonesia is a resource-rich country. We have exported crude oil, coal and natural gas. Its quality is high, bringing foreign currency to the country.

　The Indonesian government imported crude oil which is a foreign currency earned, somewhat low quality and cheap from the Middle East and others. It was for domestic consumption.

　We also utilized the trade surplus to stabilize the market price of gasoline etc. We issued a fuel subsidy and kept it cheap.

　However, with the economic development domestic consumption of energy increased. Since 2003, Indonesia has fallen into imports due to the trade value of crude oil and oil.

　Since then, worldwide crude oil prices soared, fuel subsidies began to put pressure on the national finances. The Indonesian Government gradually reduced subsidies. Nevertheless, such subsidies account for 30% of the central government's 2014 budget expenditure (about 16 trillion yen).

　For Indonesia, it was an urgent task to promote energy conservation and renewable energy development, and to reduce domestic consumption of petroleum and coal. A business opportunity arises here.

　However, Indonesia has 250 million people living on 6 thousand islands. Even compared with Japan of the same island country, the enormous cost is needed to construct the grid connecting the islands.

　Large power sources such as nuclear power plant are not suitable. It is ideal to set up a shipping power system that utilizes renewable energy on each island. Before the shipping system developed by Kyudenko, a big market is spreading.

　Improvement of social infrastructure in Indonesia is not limited to electric power. International competition for order winning will intensify over all social infrastructure such as transportation and communication.

　One of the strengths of Japanese companies is the connection between people and people found in Kyudenko. Takefoshi Yamashiro, senior director of the Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) Jakarta office said, "There are a series of packages including Japanese human resources development for overseas expansion of Japanese companies, which is the most differentiable point from other countries."

　China's biggest rival in order competition is China.

　Xi Jinping Jintao of China on October 3, 2013, on stage in Indonesia National Assembly, made a speech. According to the Chinese Communist Party's agency newspaper "People's Daily" web site "People's Net Japanese version" (same day 4), School said, "China successfully developed the partnership with the ASEAN countries (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) We will co-construct the "Sea-level Silk Road" of the century, "China will continue to share the opportunities for economic and social development with ASEAN, Asia, the world."

　The boyfriend who took office in the spring of this year launched the "Economic and diplomatic zone concept" one way road ". It is a concept aimed at creating an international order, an economic sphere led by China. China strongly advances construction support for social infrastructure in various countries such as Southeast Asia.

　In Indonesia, in Indonesia, in September 2015, we received an order for a high-speed rail linking the capital city Jakarta and West Java State Bandung about 150 kilometers. The Shinkansen in Japan was defeated.

　Even in the power infrastructure, Chinese forces are offensive with weapons such as inexpensive solar panels. Individual companies deal with Japan, but it is going backwards.

　On December 21, 2017, at the hotel in Jakarta, the International Environmental Technology Transfer Center in Japan (Yokkaichi city, Mie Prefecture) and the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry signed MOU (basic agreement) on technology transfer of reenergization.

　Together with the concluding ceremony, more than 10 Japanese companies entered Jakarta, appealing proprietary technologies such as biomass power generation using rice hulls.

　Harim Kara, Vice Chairperson of Renewable Energy and Environment at the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, admitted the technical capabilities of Japan, said:

　"There is no money in our country, China will prepare gold, suggestions from Japan are weak, so please make more efforts."

　Infrastructure construction ordered by Chinese enterprises subsequently postponed or ceased in various parts of the world. Still, for developing countries, the funds presented by the Chinese side are attractive.
