Kubu Raya Revising Regulations to Attract Investment
May 29, 2024The Kubu Raya Regency Government in West Kalimantan Province is actively working to create a friendly and conducive investment climate by revising local regulations.
"The [regency government] aims to ensure a business-friendly environment that aligns the interests of businesses and the government through digitalization," said Kubu Raya Acting Regent Sy Kamaruzaman in Sungai Raya District, Kubu Raya on May 28, 2024.
The goal of the regulatory revision is to facilitate business operations so that regional development plans (RPD) could be executed according to the area's unique characteristics and potential.
The revisions being made to regulations are also related to the acting regent's integrated one-stop services (PTSP) to accommodate delegation of authority.
The Kubu Raya Regency Government also seeks comprehensive input from businesses or their associations, professionals, as well as technical or information system-related regional bodies.
"The system has been developed by the ministry. We need to adapt it to current conditions to ensure seamless integration. Discrepancies between the system and our practices would be unfair to businesses," he explained.
Kamaruzaman emphasized that Kubu Raya is open to investment as a strategy for regional development.
"Increased investment will create more job opportunities for local residents and improve their standard of living. It will also reduce unemployment. Many positive impacts from investment will emerge, provided they comply with existing rules and mechanisms," he concluded.
