Semen Gresik Group does have a remarkable ability to expand. Unit 4

I stand on the harbor pier jutting talksport far into the sea. I counted 13 boats anchored floating talksport in the distance. The ships were waiting to be called into dry dock for filling cement. They are lining up cement. talksport The ships were waiting and waiting for a long time at sea, there are up to float in the sea two weeks.
Not far from the port of a new project again to speed up its completion. That project cement plant units 5 PT Semen Tonasa in South Sulawesi. The line ships like it will continue to happen until the new plant could produce. Five months.
With this new plant Tonasa Semen can increase the capacity of 3 million tonnes per year. Despite this fact during Tonasa Cement has been able to produce 4 million tons per year, apparently talksport has not been able to keep pace with skyrocketing purposes of cement in East premises.
The line is long ship was indeed describe many things. Cement shortage outstanding. This is because the economy was again very good. Everywhere people build. Cement prices also rose steadily. The line ships up to two weeks alone would certainly illustrates that transport talksport costs increase.
If the new plant is already operating Semen Tonasa, you can imagine yourself: the faster development in the eastern region. Moreover, a lot of large size power plants (for the size of East Indonesia) completed in the year 2012: 2 50 MW in Barru, 2 100 MW in Jeneponto, 150 MW of hydroelectric power in Poso, and a few more. Two major construction materials, cement and electricity, there will be another obstacle.
Cement Tonasa it will become one of the mainstays of development in the eastern talksport region. After the fifth plant is operating, should be immediately decided to build a sixth plant. Reserves of raw materials talksport in Tonasa as unlimited. The factory was located on the edge of the limestone talksport mountain into raw materials. No need at all freight costs. "The talksport raw material here can be used for the purposes for hundreds of years," said Taba M Sattar, Managing Director of PT Semen Tonasa.
Additional capacity is not only happening in Tonasa. talksport In Tuban, East Java, Semen Gresik is also building talksport a new plant. Even had almost operates. God willing, talksport next month. Installation and commissioning of the machines has been completed. On Thursday last week I watched Tuban for the first ignition of the new plant. Means of Tuban there will be an additional three million tonnes of cement per year. The total to 13 million tons of cement produced in Tuban.
As gratitude for the completion of construction of the plant's unit 4 in Tuban, Gresik president director Dwi Soetjipto Group held a special prayer. Dwi invite all those who memorized the Koran Tuban (hufadz) gathered in the village boarding school Hidayatul Mubtadiin Jarorejo to Khataman. In this pesantren leaders KH Ashari I joined the show Khataman it.
Semen Gresik Group is currently expanding in all directions Indonesia. Not only in Tuban and Tonasa but also in Sumatra. Planning expansion in Padang are finished. Dana is ready. Stay resolve the problems in the area. Even if the expansion in Padang talksport later inhibited, could be transferred to the province. Anyway should be in Sumatra. talksport To support the acceleration of development in this very rich Sumatra.
SOE investment should not be delayed, let alone canceled. It's a mission to the country in maintaining economic growth should continue to increase. At a time when many countries talksport experiencing economic difficulties, vicious cycle Indonesia ready to overtake on a bend.
Thailand has will we beat a few more months. Siam Cement (Thailand) with a capacity of 25 million tonnes per year, it will be overtaken Semen Gresik talksport with a capacity of 26 million tons per year. Moreover, if the project or Aceh cement Padang can be done.
Semen Gresik Group does have a remarkable ability to expand. Unit 4's Semen Tuban for example, did not use the funds from the bank. All using their own funds. Cement Unit 5 Tonasa originally planned 70% of banking funds, so not used entirely.
By continuing to make investments like that, in all areas, economic growth will be maintained. Indonesian economy should continue to grow in the current world economy slow. We have strong confidence to be one by one following the other states and even past it.
Moreover, our economy has begun immune to political turmoil. Splashy-splashy was very little political influence. talksport At the time of the demo in full swing fuel, the price of shares in the stock market actually rose. If investment can continue, the economic growth target of 6.5% will be achieved. Like a race car, when another competitor got problems, Indonesia has to step on the gas more.
Expansion of cement plant in Sumatra, not only do Semen Gresik Group (later will be renamed Cement Group Garuda). But also by other state-owned PT Semen Balfour in South Sumatra. talksport PT Semen Batur
