Preface
Preface
We are very proud to present to you “State of Logistics Indonesia 2013”. This publication has been
produced under the umbrella of project INDF10/RI/21 under the Indonesia Facility financed by the
Government of the Netherlands with technical support from the World Bank office in Jakarta. The
project aims at establishing a Dutch-Indonesian Centre for Logistics. There are four project partners:
NEA Transport Research and Training, which nowadays has become a business unit of Panteia; the STC
Group in the Netherlands; the Asosiasi Logistik Indonesia ALI (Logistics Association Indonesia); and the
Institute of Technology in Bandung (ITB) in Indonesia. During the implementation of the project also
ORGANDA, the Indonesian National Association for Land Transport, has become involved in DutchIndonesian cooperation in the field of transport and logistics.
The project long term objective is to improve Indonesia’s logistics performance and to reduce the costs
of transportation, which will lead to more affordable prices of basic commodities; connectivity and
integration in the country and an improved competitive position of Indonesia on the global market.
These aspects are expected to contribute to poverty alleviation in Indonesia. The concrete short term
objective is to strengthen Indonesia’s knowledge base in the field of transport and logistics through
training and research. Towards this end the Dutch-Indonesian Centre for Logistics is to be developed,
contributing to sustainable results.
This publication joins a tradition of various countries the world of publishing an annual report on national
logistics performance. Core component of such an annual report is an estimation of the calculation
of the annual national logistics costs. Many countries have based this calculation on a methodology
developed in the USA more than 30 years ago. We have also tried to do this in the case of Indonesia.
The results of this calculation and the methodology applied can be found in Section 1 - Chapter 3 of
this publication and is based on research carried out by ITB in Bandung under the leadership of the
Chief Editor, Prof. Dr. Ir. Senator Nur Bahagia. The editors acknowledge the support of the Multi Partner
Facility for Trade and Investment Climate (MPFTIC), funded by the Kingdom of the Netherlands and
State Secretariat for Economic Affairs SECO Switzerland, to make this publication possible. Section 2 of
Chapters 4, 5 and 6 appeared earlier as technical notes of the Competitiveness team of the World Bank
Indonesia Office.
The partners are already preparing “State of Logistics Indonesia 2014”, which will be published in
January 2014. It is the intention to start a cycle of annual publication of this kind of logistics report for
Indonesia.
On behalf of all partners of the INDF10/RI/21 project - Panteia/NEA, the STC Group, Asosiasi Logistik
Indonesia (ALI) and ITB Bandung – , we wish you a good reading of this document, which is published
in two languages – Bahasa and English – to reach a wider audience.

1. Introduction
1.1
Background
Indonesia is the world largest archipelagic country consisting of more than 17,000 islands
spread over more than 5,000 kilometres from west to east. The land area is 1,860,360 km² and
the sea area 5,800,000 km² with a total of 81,000 km of coastal line. The population is more
than 237 million (2010). The population density is 124 inhabitants per km². The population
is very uneven distributed over the islands. Java has 58% of the population with only 7% of
the total area. The population density in Java is 1,055 inhabitants per km². Maluku & Papua
and Kalimantan have much lesser population densities with 11 and 25 inhabitants per km²,
respectively. Table 1.1 shows the pattern of the population distribution over the different
provinces.

The geographical nature of Indonesia with its many islands and the uneven distribution of
the population put enormous challenges in developing infrastructure and tackling regional
disparities. Lack of infrastructure has hampered the effort to develop and realise the national
and regional economic potentials. The organisation of an efficient logistics system is a crucial
factor in the socio-economic development of Indonesia.
The total population mentioned in the ‘Trends of Socio-Economic Indicators of Indonesia, 2010’ was 237641300, which does
not match with the sub totals.

Introduction
Currently, the logistics system is in need to become more efficient. The inadequate performance
of the logistics system is dragging its export capacity down and constraining the country from
fully participating in the global production network2. Indonesia’s share of exports to total GDP
has been low over the period 1999-2008 at 28%, far smaller than Singapore (150%), Malaysia
(91%) and Thailand (50%)3. Developing an efficient logistics system would increase the
competitiveness of Indonesia’s external trade and increase export. It also would contribute to
reducing regional disparities and providing easier and cheaper access of the commodities on
the domestic market
1.2
Objective and Scope of State of Logistics Indonesia
Objective
The objective of the State of Logistics Indonesia 2013 is to provide a status update of logistics
performance in Indonesia. In addition, specific information is provided on logistics cases.
Scope
The State of Logistics Indonesia 2013 consists of two sections:
•
Logistics Policy and Performance, providing the framework of logistics policy in Indonesia
and an overview of logistics performance in terms of national logistics costs of Indonesia.
•
Logistics Case Studies, providing specific insight in relevant logistics development in
Indonesia.
State of Logistics Indonesia will be produced on an annual basis. The first section on Logistics
Policy and Performance will be updated annually, providing a benchmark for logistics
development in Indonesia. The second section will feature a varying selection of relevant
cases.

2.1
Background
An effective and efficient National Logistics System is one that drives the integration of land
and sea into a whole and sovereign system contributing toward the actualization of Indonesia
as a maritime nation through the implementation of its strategic role in synchronizing and
aligning progresses of various economic sectors and regional developments toward an inclusive
economic growth thus fortifying national economic sovereignty and security. Therefore, in
addition to improve the national economy, the role of the National Logistics System is also to
be one of the unifying vehicles to solidify the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI).
It is a fact, however, that Indonesia’s national logistics system performance in general is still
not optimal and needs to be improved as indicated by: (a) inadequate infrastructure, both
quantitatively and qualitatively; (b) prevalence of illegal charges and transaction fees causing
high-cost economy; (c) poor export and import processing lead time, and bottlenecks on port
services; (d) inadequate service capacity and networks supporting national logistics providers;
(e) chronic difficulties in stocks management and price fluctuation of basic commodities
particularly during national and religious holidays; and, in addition (f) significant price disparity
in border, remote and outer areas. These have significant impacts on the performance of
the national logistics sector as the World Bank’s 2010 and 2012 the Logistics Performance
Index (LPI) of Indonesia was quite poor compared with other ASEAN member countries, even
though with Vietnam which is in the category of low income country while Indonesia is in
the category of lower middle income. Indonesia’s position was only above Laos, Cambodia,
and Myanmar which were in the category of low income countries. In addition to the poor
logistics performance, Indonesia also faces fiercer global and regional competition which is
no longer among products and among companies, but among logistics networks and supply
chains. Meanwhile, Indonesia also needs to prepare for the integration of ASEAN logistics
sector by 2013 as part of the ASEAN Economic Community of 2015, and also for integrated
global market. Such preparations need to be formulated and set out in a synchronized and
unifying policy spelled out through a National Logistics System Blueprint.
Indonesia has put many efforts in developing a new policy to improve its national and
international logistics system during the last five years. These efforts were formalized4 through

The World Bank’s LPI 2007 and urgency to meet regional/international commitments have also contributed to this.
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 1
the issuance of the Presidential Instruction No. 5/2008 regarding Focus of Economic Programs
2008-2009, which, among others, asked for the preparation of a national logistics blueprint
with the Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs (CMEA) as the designated responsible
party. The team tasked for the preparation was established and this blueprint preparation
process has been strongly supported not only by related government’s ministries/agencies,
logistics associations members of the chamber of commerce, academicians, practitioners/
experts, but also by international institutions like the World Bank, bilateral cooperation with
Japan, Australia and The Netherlands.
The results of these efforts can be found in the fact that gradually a more integrated framework
is evolving, which allows the elaboration of concrete action plans as later on detailed in
the Presidential Regulation No.26/2012 under which the Blueprint for the Development
of the National Logistics System (Sistem Logistik Nasional, thus, SISLOGNAS) was issued on
March 2012. During the preparation, the team had organized many meetings with private
and public stakeholders to get the necessary inputs, and the content of the blueprint had
been synchronized into Government national programs, such as the Connectivity, Economic
Corridors and the Master Plan for the Acceleration and Expansion of Economic Development
of Indonesia (MP3EI). The most important policy directions in this process are described
below.
2.2
SISLOGNAS and MP3EI
During the preparation of the logistics blueprint, the Government was also in the process of
preparing the working document to implement Law No.17/2007 on the National Long Term
Development Plan 2005-2025 that would transform the country into a developed country by
2025. At the same time, the Government is also aware that not only Indonesia has to prepare
itself to meet its regional/international commitments, thus, to improve its competitiveness,
but there is also a need to urge more involvement of the private sector in developing the
economy to compensate for the country’s limited fiscal capacity. In order to be able to achieve
this, a Master Plan for the Acceleration and Expansion of Economic Development of Indonesia
(MP3EI)4 has been developed, and was issued through the Presidential Regulation No. 32/2011
in May 2011, providing the building blocks to transform Indonesia into one of the 10 major
economies in the world by 2025. To achieve this, real economic growth should reach 7-9% per
year, on an ongoing basis. The total investments needed to implement the programmes and
projects identified in the MP3EI 2011-2025 are estimated at 4,012 trillion Rp (472 billion USD).
For the implementation of this ambitious plan, the private sector has to be given a major
and important role in economic development, particularly in investments to increase job
opportunities. The government will not only be a regulator, it will also be a facilitator and
catalyst to support this growth; the Master Plan also clearly states the need for “not business
as usual” approach in achieving the objective. With regard to regulations, the government
will amend or remove (debottlenecking) regulations that inhibit the implementation of
investments. As a facilitator and catalyst, the government will provide incentives, both fiscal
and non-fiscal.

Section 1
Implementation of MP3EI will include 8 main programs which consist of 22 (twenty two) main
economic activities. The implementation strategy of MP3EI will integrate 3 main elements: (1)
Developing the regional economic potential in 6 (six) Indonesia Economic Corridors: Sumatra
Economic Corridor; Java Economic Corridor; Kalimantan Economic Corridor; Sulawesi Economic
Corridor; Bali – Nusa Tenggara Economic Corridor; and Papua –Kepulauan Maluku Economic
Corridor (see Figure 2.1), (2) Strengthening national connectivity locally and internationally
(Figure 2.2), and (3) Strengthening human resource capacity and national science & technology
to support the development of main programs in every economic corridor.
The concept of connectivity was also discussed at the 15th ASEAN Summit in October 2009,
where the idea of ASEAN Connectivity (physical, institutions and people-to-people) was
presented for the first time. Improved connectivity within the ASEAN would result in reduced
trade costs in the region, creating economic growth and employment. In the concept of the
development of ASEAN connectivity, it was proposed that each ASEAN member state should
enhance the trade and freight flows by improving three components: transportation of freight;
business logistics; and trade facilitation. The ASEAN countries would need to reduce their
logistic bottlenecks and non-physical barriers to trade and transport like tariffs, regulation,
transparent procedures, differences in business practices, language, cultural barriers, etc.
Indonesia set a connectivity agenda coordinated by BAPPENAS. This connectivity agenda
was based on three pillars: reducing regional disparities; accelerating poverty reduction;
and enhancing competitiveness. These main objectives could be achieved by reducing interisland shipping costs; lowering transport costs for rural citizens; upgrade access and enhance
efficiency of international ports.

Later, the National Connectivity Framework as depicted at Figure 2.2 became one of the three
main elements of the MP3EI 2011-2025.

Figure 2.2 Indonesia: National Connectivity Framework
Source: Master Plan for the Acceleration and Expansion of Economic Development of Indonesia (MP3EI)
To implement the MP3EI, the Presidential Regulation No. 32/2011 also establishes the
Committee on Acceleration and Expansion of Indonesia’s Economic Development 2011-2025
(KP3EI) chaired by the President with the CMEA as the executive chair. KP3EI is responsible
for the coordination, monitoring and evaluation of specific strategies and actions identified in
the Master Plan. Through the MP3EI the Government of Indonesia has shown its awareness of
the need to invest in the improvement of the logistics system in Indonesia. These investments
focus not only on hard infrastructure, but also on the so-called soft infrastructure; more
conducive regulations to facilitate trade and transport. The main challenge will be to attract
sufficient private capital for the planned investments.
The linkages in the implementation between MP3EI, the National Logistics System Blueprint
and the related parties is depicted in Figure 2.3. Thus the Blueprint of National Logistics
System Development (SISLOGNAS) is expected to contribute to the realization of goals of the
National Mid-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2010-2014, to support the implementation
of MP3EI, thus, actualizing Indonesia’s economic vision 2025 (RPJPN), i.e. “Self-sufficient,
advanced, just and prosperous Indonesia” with targeted per capita GDP of US$ 14,25015,500 by 2025. Therefore, the National Logistics System is to be developed into an effective,
efficient and integrated Logistics System based on Supply Chain Management (SCM) approach
upon synchronized, integrated and collaborative stakeholders, supported by information
technology and embodied under a reliable institutional setting with effective organizational
system. It is expected that the National Logistics System will be operationalized by ethical
and professional logistics actors and service providers, supported by adequate and reliable
logistics infrastructure. The Blueprint of the National Logistics System takes into account the
existing development of national and global logistics condition, regionally and internationally,
and logistics business best practices processes in developed countries. As the main logistics
activity is to ensure the flow of goods (commodities), the paradigm “ship-follows-the-trade”
holds; but, due to Indonesia’s vast geographic span whereby access to some areas and regions
is limited, the Blueprint also hinges on the “ship-promotes-the-trade” paradigm.

Blueprint of National Logistics System Development
In March 2012 the SISLOGNAS Blueprint was officially approved by Presidential Regulation No.
26/2012. It also cites that the implementation of the Blueprint is coordinated by the CMEA, as
the executive chair of the KPEI, and for the CMEA to establish a SISLOGNAS team, which since
then has been working on an implementation plan of the National Logistics System strategy.
The Blueprint of National Logistics System Development (SISLOGNAS) is not a master plan but
it focuses more in laying out the direction and modules to develop a National Logistics System
at the national-wide policy level to be broken down into annual Government and Ministries/
Government Agencies Work Plans. Thus, the SISLOGNAS Blueprint provides directive and
guidance to the government and the business sector in developing effective and efficient
National Logistics System. It is a reference to the national and local governments in developing
logistics development plans and to improve transparency and coordination among ministries
and agencies at the national and sub-national levels. For the business sector, the Blueprint is
to support them to improve their competitiveness through creation of higher added value due
to competitive costs, more investment opportunities to micro, small and medium enterprises
and more opportunities for national logistics actors and service providers to build cooperation
on a global scale.
The Vision of National Logistics System development until 2025 is “Locally Integrated, Globally
Connected for National Competitiveness and Social Welfare”. The “Locally Integrated” logistics
system means that, by 2025, all logistics activities in Indonesia will be integrated effectively
and efficiently at the rural, urban, interregional and inter-island levels into one unit within
8
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 1
the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI) that brings welfare and prosperity to
Indonesian people. The locally integrated vision promotes national economic sovereignty and
security characterized by inclusive, just and evenly distributed economic growth among regions
thus improving social welfare and unifying the whole territory of Indonesia as a maritime
country. The “Globally Connected” logistics system means that, by 2025, the National Logistics
System will be connected to the regional (ASEAN) and global logistics systems via International
Hub Ports (including customs and trade facilitations), backed-up by “International Gateways”
information and financial networks enabling national logistics actors and service providers to
compete in the global market.
The locally integrated and globally connected logistics system as schematically shown in
Figure 2.4 will be achieved through integrated and efficient logistics networks consisting of
distribution, transport, information and financial networks supporting logistics actors and
service providers. Thus, the domestic logistics system network and its connection to the global
logistics network will be a key to success in global supply chain competition as competitions
will not only between products or companies but also between logistics networks and supply
chains and even between countries. Further, the locally integrated and globally connected
logistics system will promote national economic sovereignty and security, improve social
welfare and establish the NKRI as a maritime country.

The missions of the National Logistics System are: (1) to facilitate effective and efficient
flows of goods to ensure the supply of the public’s basic necessities and to improve the
competitiveness of national products on the domestic, regional and global markets, and (2)
to build national logistics nodes and their connectivity across rural, urban, interregional and
inter-island levels to international hub ports through collaboration of stakeholders. Following
up on the above vision and missions, the general goal to be achieved from developing and
establishing a National Logistics System is to establish an integrated, effective and efficient
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013

Section 1
logistics system to improve the national competitiveness on the regional and global markets,
and to improve social welfare. Specifically, the goals are (1) to reduce logistics costs, facilitate
the movement of goods and improve logistics services thus improving the competitiveness of
national products in the global and domestic market, (2) to ensure that basic and strategic
commodities are available throughout Indonesia at affordable prices thus promoting a just
and prosperous society, and strengthen the sovereignty and integrity of the Unitary State of
the Republic of Indonesia, and (3) to prepare for ASEAN logistics integration by 2013 as part of
the single ASEAN market by 2015 and global market integration by 2020.
The above vision, missions and goals dictate that the National Logistics System development
is to be based on 6 (six) key drivers (Figure 2.5), i.e.: (1) Key Commodities, (2) Logistics Actors
and Service Providers, (3) Transport Infrastructure, (4) Information and Communication
Technology, (5) Human Resources and Management, and (6) Laws and Regulations. The 6
(six) key drivers dictate adoption of the following policy directions, coordinated under one
umbrella organization: (1) Identification of Key Commodities embedded in an effective and
efficient logistics networks and supply chains, governance and trading scheme, (2) Integration
of logistics nodes and links to facilitate the flow of goods from the point of origin to the point
of destination. The logistics nodes include logistics actors and consumers; and the logistics
links include distribution, transport, information and financial networks, connecting rural
and urban communities, economic growth centres, between islands and cross countries. The
integration of logistics nodes and logistics links provides a major foundation for achieving
local, national and global connectivity towards national economic sovereignty and security and
establishing Indonesia as a Maritime Country, (3) Development and adoption of a reliable and
safe information and communication system; (4) Development of local world-class logistics
actors and service providers; (5) Development of professional logistics human resources;
(6) Reform of laws and regulations on logistics to ensure legal and business certainty, and
synchronization among national and sub-national logistics actors and service providers
enabling efficient logistic activities thus to establish conducive business environment; and (7)
Institutional governance for an effective national logistics system.

Strategic, Program and Policy Direction
To actualize the vision, missions and goals of this National Logistics System by 2025, it is
necessary to lay out policies and strategies to be further stipulated in programs, implementation
phases and action plans. The policies of the national logistics system are to be developed/
implemented through are 6 (six) key drivers.
Give priority to national interest
As mandated by the 1945 Constitution, priority should be given to the national interest. With
regard to the National Logistics System, it should improve the national competitiveness and
people’s welfare by facilitating trade of locally produced commodities. It should also contribute
to the stabilization of national security by ensuring the competitive and smooth distribution
of basic and strategic commodities needed by the people. In developing the National Logistics
System, competency building for Indonesian human resources will be one of the priorities.
Drive the achievement of Indonesian economic vision by 2025
Upon establishment of 6 (six) Indonesian economic development and growth corridors as
set out in the MP3EI, the National Logistics System is expected to drive the achievement
of the Indonesian Economic Vision by 2025 i.e. “Actualizing Indonesian society that is selfsufficient, advanced, just and prosperous” with the targeted per capita GDP of 14,250-15,500
US Dollars. To achieve the vision, the national economic sovereignty and security should be
upheld through the management of national potential and natural resources consistent with
regional and international trade conventions.
Promote the establishment of Indonesia as a maritime state
Her endowment of thousands of islands connected by sea with abundant natural resources
plus international recognition of exclusive economic zone in its territorial waters validated
Indonesia as a maritime nation applying the concepts of front land and hinterland. These
concepts are expected to strengthen the national economic sovereignty and security.
Promote breakthrough and acceleration to catch up in a global competition
Catching up with global competition would require leap-frog and breakthrough to make
Indonesia’s competitiveness at par with other countries which are also reforming their logistics
systems. Adoption of front land and hinterland concepts in addition to transformation of
international hub into logistic ports is an example of such breakthrough at the macro level.
Micro level breakthroughs include: (a) development of short-sea shipping ports in Sumatra,
Java, Kalimantan and Eastern Indonesia Region as an alternative to road infrastructure, and (b)
development of logistics support in the sea region to support the optimal use of Indonesia’s
sea resources.
Increase local governments’ role and national-local synergy
As logistics system is an integrated system, national-local governments’ synergism is to be
improved as it is essential to the integration of the whole national economic power. A roadmap
should be drawn by the National Government with input from Local Governments (Pemda).
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013

Section 1
The roadmap can be used by the National Government to develop a national logistics system
and by local governments to develop their logistics systems, including priorities in development
plans. Law Number 22 Year 2000 on Regional Autonomy authorizes District Governments to
put government into operation and to be responsible for satisfying local needs for basic and
strategic commodities. As a result, the logistics for basic and strategic commodities are basically
the responsibility of District Governments while the National Government is responsible for
providing the directives and the Provincial Government is responsible for coordination.
Encourage fair competition
The main goals of logistics are to facilitate the flow of goods, improve logistics services and thus
increase the competitiveness of national products on the global and domestic markets. These
goals will be achieved through a sound business competition. Basically, the implementation
of the national logistics system for major export commodities and unregulated commodities
will follow market forces. But, in terms of basic and strategic commodities, government
intervention is allowable to reduce price disparity and volatility on the domestic market as
the purchasing power of the general public is weak such that unchecked increases in prices
may result in social upheaval.
Promote the business world’s participation and business opportunities
As the Government has limited resources, increasing participation of the private sector is
encouraged in developing the national logistics system. A wide range of partnerships and
alliances such as public-private partnerships in developing national logistics infrastructure
should continuously be promoted. In addition, the private contributions do not only take the
form of financing but also as an alternate in the operation of a logistics sub-system for a
certain period of time. Further, the opportunities for members of community to start and
develop logistics business in Indonesia should be made available widely through ease of
business licensing and development.
The SISLOGNAS policy is based on Supply Chain Management approach upon synchronized,
integrated and collaborative stakeholders, supported by information technology embodied
under a reliable institutional setting with effective organizational system. The Blueprint adds
that as an archipelagic nation, national logistics policy should be one that treats the sea as
the connector, instead of separator, of thousands of islands that made up the country. Thus,
the national logistics system development will be based on the concepts of front land and
hinterland.
The front land is the territory directly bordering on other countries or international waters
while the hinterland is the territory of land and sea surrounded by the front land. The
hinterland is the full sovereignty of Indonesia. However, in the hinterland, foreign ships are
allowed to pass Indonesia’s waters along the corridor of up to 25 miles to the right and to the
left of the Indonesian Archipelagic Sea Lanes (Alur Laut Kepulauan Indonesia) in accordance
to the international rules (innocent passage) but they are not allowed to carry out economic
and fishing activities. The establishment of the two international hub ports (Kuala Tanjung in
the west and Bitung in the east) has to do with this concept.
12
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 1
The concepts of front land and hinterland are a strategic leap in the logistics sector to improve
the competitiveness of local products on the domestic market. In addition, they are also the
catalyst to in the transformation of International Hub Ports into Logistics Ports, i.e. facilities
to support the flows of goods replacing the port function as a place for cargo loading and
unloading. In micro terms, the concepts also crystallize two logistics related issues, at least,
i.e.: (a) development of Short Sea Shipping (SSS) ports in Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi,
Nusa Tenggara and Papua as the alternative to developing increasingly expensive road
infrastructure often hampered by land acquisition problems, and (b) development of Logistics
Support in the deep sea hinterland to support Indonesia’s marine resources exploitation in
the EEZ.
The Blueprint reiterates the previously referred national policies and it also translates them
into lists of action plans and targets for 2012-2015; 2016-2020 and 2021-2025 together with
the ministries/agencies and local governments responsible for the tasks. It stresses that
these policies are to actualize Indonesia as a maritime nation, through “Vision 2025: Locally
Integrated, Globally Connected for National Competitiveness and Social Welfare”. The phases
of National Logistics System development for 2011-2025 are undertaken in a gradual and
sustainable manner as Table 2.1 below shows.

The SISLOGNAS Team has established task forces according to each of these key drivers,
and the action plans and target for each of them are also detailed in the Blueprint. In
addition to coordinate and monitor the implementation of the national logistics policies
implementation, the SISLOGNAS Team is also tasked to establish a mechanism through which
policies implementation progress can be measured and tracked overtime using indicators
as the improvement of reliability, efficiency (lead time) and cost of the national logistics
performance. It is paramount to establish national logistics performance indicators, related to
the progress made through each of the task forces of the key drivers.
2.5
Closing Remark
This National Logistics System Blueprint provides the vision, strategies, policies,
implementation phases and action plans related to government policy on National Logistics
System establishment and development to improve the flows of goods at home and from and
to other countries effectively and efficiently. As such, it (a) provides guidelines in preparing
government policy to establish and develop Indonesian logistics sector thus improving
national business’ competitiveness on the global market and public welfare, (b) helps the
national and local governments prepare development plans thus optimizing the use of limited
national resources while significantly improving the performance of the National Logistics
System, (c) improves transparency and coordination among ministries and agencies and other
relevant stakeholders, and (d) indicates investment opportunities for medium, small and
micro enterprises and for national logistics service providers to establish cooperation on a
global scale.
The SISLOGNAS is expected to contribute to the realization of goals of the National MidTerm Development Plan (RPJMN) 2010-2014, to support the implementation of MP3EI, thus,
actualizing Indonesia’s economic vision 2025 (RPJPN), i.e. “Self-sufficient, advanced, just and
prosperous Indonesia” with targeted per capita GDP of US$ 14,250-15,500 by 2025.
As the main logistics activity is to ensure the flow of goods, the national policy does not
only promote the “ship-follows-the-trade” but also the “ship-promotes-the-trade” policies
to balance the cabotage traffic due to Indonesia’s vast geographic span whereby access to
some areas and regions is limited. The policy is also to give priority to basic and strategic
goods distribution throughout the archipelago to minimize their price disparities/availability
due to geographical and cyclical issues. The logistics policy includes also the empowerment of
logistics actors (such as producers, wholesalers, distributors, agents and retailers) as well as
the logistics service providers.

3. National Logistics Costs
Until now Indonesia has not measured its national logistics performance both in terms
of logistics cost and other logistics indicators. The necessity of the national logistics
cost performance, among others, is to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the
implementation of the blueprint of National Logistics System (SISLOGNAS) as officially issued
by Presidential Regulation No. 26 year 2012. This chapter describes a framework to calculate
Indonesia logistics costs. USA’s logistics cost model is chosen as a reference in developing
the model of the Indonesia’s national logistics costs due to the simplicity of its cost structure
and components, and the appropriateness with Indonesian situation. Even though it will be
modified in accordance with the data availability and it will be combined and modified with
South Korea’s model and South Africa’s model. Using the proposed model and the availability
of data, it shows that during the period 2004-2011 the Indonesia logistics costs decreased
2.97% of GDP, from 27.61% of GDP in 2004 to 24.64% of GDP in 2011. The average of
Indonesian logistics costs during 8 years is equal to 26.03 % of GDP, for which transportation
cost component give the biggest contribution (12.04% of GDP) to the Indonesia logistics costs,
administration cost component (4.52% of GDP) give the lowest, and the contribution of the
inventory costs ( 9.47% of GDP) was in the middle position. The transportation costs were
dominated by land transportation (72.21%); rail transportation (only 0.51%) gave the lowest
contribution, while the inventory cost was dominated by holding cost (49.37%).
3.1
Background
In conventional business view, logistics is frequently considered as a supporting activity to
production and marketing; the function of logistics is in this view related to procuring and
storing raw material needed for production processes, and to distributing finished good to
the consumers. However, following the global trade liberation, since three decades ago, the
role of logistics in reshaping the business competitiveness has changed. The competitiveness
is not only based on the product/goods, but it also has been shifted into the competition
between one company and other companies, even between company networks. Each of
which is supported by each respective government. In response to this change, the Indonesian
government has issued Presidential Regulation No.26 year 2012 concerning the Blueprint of
National Logistics System (SISLOGNAS)
16
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 1
The vision 2025 of SISLOGNAS is “Locally integrated, globally connected for national
competitiveness and social welfare”. It is expected that SISLOGNAS can provide needed and
appropriate contribution in the achievement of Indonesian economic vision as stated in MP3EI
that is “a self-sufficient, just, and prosperous Indonesia”. It means that in Indonesia the role
of logistics is not only to flow goods effectively and efficiently but also to increase business
competitiveness and economics growth. Besides that, it also has a strategic role for increasing
social welfare and for strengthening Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.
It is a fact, however, that Indonesia’s national logistics system performance in general is still
not optimal and needs to be improved as indicated by the World Bank’s Logistics Performance
Index (LPI) and shown in Figure 3.1. In 2007 the LPI revealed that Indonesia ranked of 43rd
out of 155 countries surveyed, it was lower than some ASEAN countries i.e. Singapore (1st),
Malaysia (27th) and Thailand (31st). The Indonesia rank decreased in 2010 as the LPI showed
the rank became 75th out of 155 countries surveyed, lower than those of some ASEAN
countries i.e. Singapore (2nd), Malaysia (29th) and Thailand (35th) and it was even lower
than those of the Philippines (44th) and Vietnam (53rd). In 2012, the LPI of Indonesia rank
considerably increased into 59th out of 155 countries surveyed, it was still lower than those
of some ASEAN countries i.e. Singapore (1st), Malaysia (21st), Thailand (38th), the Philippines
(52nd) and Vietnam (53rd).
Figure 3.1 Indonesian Logistics Performance Index
Source: Logistics Performance Index, World Bank
Figure 3.1 clearly demonstrates that in 2012 the LPI of Indonesia was quite poor compared
with other ASEAN member countries. Indonesia’s position was only above Laos, Cambodia,
and Myanmar which were in the category of low income countries, while Indonesia was in the
category of lower middle income. According to LPI Vietnam’s position was above Indonesia’s
even though Vietnam was in the category of low income.
Based on various sources, Table 3.1 represents Indonesia’s national logistics costs compared
with those of advanced and ASEAN Countries.

The Indonesia logistics costs could be up to 27% of the Gross Domestic Products (GDP) and its
service quality was poor as stated in the SISLOGNAS (2012). The poor quality was indicated by:
inadequate infrastructure, both quantitatively and qualitatively; prevalence of illegal charges
and transaction fees causing high cost economy; poor export and import processing lead
time, and bottlenecks on port services; inadequate service capacity and networks supporting
national logistics providers; chronic difficulties in stocks management and price fluctuation
of basic commodities particularly during national and religious holidays; and, in addition
significant price disparity in border, remote and outer areas.
Even though Indonesia knows Logistics Performance Index (LPI) from the World Bank
publication, until now Indonesia has not measured its logistics performance both in terms of
logistics costs and other logistics indicators. At macro level there is the necessity to evaluate the
national logistics cost performance and the effectiveness and efficiency of the implementation
of the blueprint of SISLOGNAS. Subsequently it can be used to identify problems, challenges
and opportunities and to synchronize appropriate policy and action plans both in public sector
and in private sector and even between central and local government. In the operational level,
the logistics cost indicator could be used to reduce operating costs and to increase logistics
services which then can increase the flow of goods. Thus the flow of goods can be delivered
more rapidly, reliably, and cheaply, and subsequently can increase business competitiveness.
3.2
National Logistics Cost Model
According to Rushton et al (2006) in Pishvaee et al (2009) the logistics cost components consist
of carrying costs, storage costs, packing costs, consolidation costs, transportation costs,
inventory costs, information costs, and controlling costs. Meanwhile according to Zeng and
Rosseti (2003) the logistics cost components consist of transportation costs, carrying costs,
administration costs, tax, risk and damage costs, handling costs and packing costs. In reality,
each country has its own model and method in calculating its national logistics costs, even
though generally they use three categories of logistics cost components: transportation costs;
inventory costs; and administration costs.
18
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 1
The calculation of the logistics costs of the USA is done by using CASS Information Systems,
Inc. This was firstly published by Heskett et all in 1973, then it was improved by Delaney
using the transportation costs, the inventory costs, and the administration costs as the major
cost components. The South Korean national logistics costs is done by KOTI (Korea Transport
Institute), which uses transportation costs, inventory costs, packing costs, handling and
loading/unloading costs, information costs, and administration costs. South African logistics
costs is done by CSIR (Council for Scientific and Industrial Research), and the components
consists of transportation costs inventory costs, and management and administration costs.
Therefore, as a consequence, national logistics costs are not fully comparable among countries.
The basis for the calculation of national logistics costs in USA, South Korea, and South Africa
is presented in Table 3.2.

Indonesian Logistics Cost Model
Apparently, not only in Indonesia but also in other countries, the availability of data is one
of the major problems for developing a model of calculating national logistics costs. That is
why each country has its own model and method in calculating its national logistics costs.
Due to this problem the Indonesian logistics cost model has to be developed which is based
on the availability of data that can be obtained regularly from related institutional agencies,
both public and private. USA’s logistics cost model is chosen as a reference in developing the
model of the Indonesia’s National Logistics Costs due to the simplicity of cost structure and
components, and the appropriateness for the Indonesian situation. Even though, it will be
modified in accordance with the data availability and it will be combined with South Korea’s
model and South Africa’s model. Figure 3.2 describes schematically the Indonesia Logistics
Cost Model.
Based on USA logistics cost model, the Indonesian National Logistics Cost components can
be classified into 3 categories; they are transportation cost, inventory cost and administration
cost:
OL = OT + OI + OA

OA : Administration Costs (% GDP)
Figure 3.2 Framework of Indonesia Logistics Cost Model

For calculating each cost component, both South Korea logistics cost model and USA’s logistics
cost model are used. South Korea’s logistics cost model is used for calculating the transportation
cost and inventory cost, and USA’s logistics cost model is used for calculating transportation
and administration cost. South Africa’s logistics cost model is used for classifying the business
sector, because of the similarity between Indonesia and South Africa as natural resources
(agriculture and mining) producing country.
3.4
Analysis of Indonesian Logistics Cost
Using the availability of secondary data from various sources and according to the Indonesian
logistics cost model as proposed, the estimation of the Indonesian logistics costs from 2004
to 2011 is presented in the Table 3.3. It shows that during the 8 years there was a slight
improvement of the performance of Indonesia’s logistics costs ( 2.97% of GDP ) from 27.61%
of GDP in 2004 to 24.64% of GDP in 2011. It means that in average there was 0.37% of GDP
annual improvement in Indonesia logistics costs.

As shown in the Table 3.4, the significant increment of Indonesian logistics costs happened
in 2006 (25.99% from 2005), 2008 (21.81% from 2007) and 2011 (18.52% from 2011). From
economic point of view, the significant increment in 2006 and 2008 are highly correlated with
the fuel (BBM) price adjustment that increased from USD 0.275 to USD 0.575 in 2006, and
from 0.575 to USD 0.600 in 2008. Fuel (BBM) price adjustment cause the significant logistics
costs as the transportation cost component which was the biggest logistics cost component.
The imbalance in using different transportation modes - with a large domination of land
transportation, as shown in the Table 3.5, reinforced the contribution to the transportation
costs in Indonesia.

by 49.37% holding cost (Table 3.6). From this phenomenon, it can be concluded that premium
(BBM) price and interest rate have high correlation with the Indonesian logistics costs.
Accordingly, it could be used as an indicator to predict the Indonesian logistics costs.

Closing Remark
During the period 2004-2011 there was slight improvement of the performance of Indonesia
logistics costs ( 2.97% of GDP ) from 27.61% of GDP in 2004 to 24.64% of GDP in 2011; it means
that in average there was 0.37% of GDP annual improvement in Indonesia logistics cost.
In 2011, national logistics costs constituted 25.03% of GDP, lower than average. The
average of Indonesian logistics costs during 8 years (2004 to 2011) was 26.03 % of GDP, of
which transportation cost component provided the largest contribution (12.04% of GDP);
administration cost component (4.52% of GDP) had the lowest contribution, and the
contribution of the inventory costs (9.47% of GDP) was in the middle position.
The transportation costs were dominated by land transportation costs (72.21%); rail
transportation (only 0.51%) gave the lowest contribution; the inventory costs were dominated
by holding costs (49.37%).
From economic point of view, the significant increment of total amount of national logistics
costs was highly correlated with the fuel (BBM) price adjustment; accordingly, it could be used
as an indicator to predict the Indonesian logistics costs.

Logistics Case Studies
4. Reducing Dwell-Time of Import
Containers in Tanjung Priok
4.1
Background
Import containers stay too long at the container terminals in Indonesia, negatively affecting
logistics costs and having a serious adverse effect in terms of logistics costs for domestic businesses and the prices paid by consumers. This fact is well acknowledged by the Government
of Indonesia, as underlined by Indonesian Port Corporation (IPC) president director Richard
Joost Lino, who was quoted during the ceremony marking the start of the development of the
Kalibaru Port in North Jakarta: “This is a historical moment for Indonesia because we have not
expanded [the existing] Tanjung Priok Port for 130 years despite container traffic increasing at
around 24 percent annually. We are committed to providing the best service in this port and
to reducing dwell-time from 6.2 days to 3 days”6.
This case study describes dwell time (DT) in Tanjung Priok, including ways to reduce DT.
4.2
Tackling Import Container Dwell-Time in Tanjung Priok7
As trade and the traffic of shipping containers continue to grow, Indonesia’s main port of entry
appears to be buckling under the pressure to keep up. According to the latest estimates, the
average import container DT at Tanjung Priok has increased from 4.8 days in October 2010 to
6.4 days in November 2012 (Figure 4.1).
Yudhoyono kicks off RI’s largest port project, The Jakarta Post, March 23, 2013.
The information in this case description is also presented in the World Bank’s Technical Note “Tackling Import Container
Dwell-Time in Tanjung Priok” (March 2013).

Figure 4.1 Dwell time at Tanjung Priok in period January 2011-June 2012

DT measures the time from the moment the container is unloaded from a vessel until it leaves
the gates of the Jakarta International Container Terminal (JICT). This is a 33 percent increase
on DT measured in October 2010 (4.8 days), which is worrying given that Tanjung Priok handles over two-thirds of Indonesia’s entire international trade and total container traffic forecast is expected to grow by over 160 percent by 2015 according to Pelindo II estimates. This
situation is likely to be even worse at the other terminals of the port.
The deterioration of DT in Indonesia’s most important international port adversely affects the
country’s economy in three ways. First, export-oriented industries are impacted by uncertainties due to the delays, reducing the competitiveness of Indonesian products abroad. Just-intime inventory in manufacturing, in which firms tightly manage their schedules for importing raw materials and re-exporting finished goods, suffers even more, hampering Indonesia’s
transition to becoming an integral part of efficient worldwide supply-chains. It is important to
note that about 19 percent of the inputs for foreign and export-oriented firms are imported.
Second, the bottlenecks at the port have serious consequences in terms of costs for domestic
businesses and ultimately in the prices paid by consumers. Lastly, Tanjung Priok is an integral
part of the city environment, and the blockages add to the already dysfunctional traffic, which
in turn also worsens the congestion in the port. As an example, the recent city floods caused
the dwell-time to rise to 8 days in January 2013.
In order to keep up with the projected increases in trade, and to compensate for urban and
infrastructure constraints, further time-saving efficiencies will need to be found in the very
near future if DT is not to lengthen further. Understanding the reasons for the lengthening
time needed in clearing and removing containers from the port becomes essential. DT can be
broken in three components: upstream (between the arrival of the ship and the submission
of the import declaration to Customs); Customs clearance; and downstream (from Customs
clearance until leaving the gates of the JICT). The import processes from phase to phase are
explained below (Box 4.1).

The shipping line company prepares a manifest, a document that contains information about the containers
and their owners, and submits it to Customs 24 hours before arrival, as required by Indonesian regulations.
Customs acknowledges this document by issuing a BC 1.1. form. The serial number of the form is used in
the submission of the import declaration (PIB).
The importer (or its freight forwarder, FF) obtains the BC 1.1. information from the shipping line. In theory,
the BC 1.1. information could be obtained from the shipping line before the arrival of the ship, but the fact
is that it is usually acquired by the FF once the vessel has docked in the port. As most of the ships arrive
over the weekend Friday-Sunday, most of the FF obtain this information the following Monday, which constitutes an important source of delay to the upstream component of dwell-time.
In addition to the BC 1.1. serial number, the FF needs to collect all the supporting paperwork that could
include documents issued by the Quarantine agency, BPOM (National Agency for Drug and Food Control),
Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Trade and others. This process could include providing data to the different online systems of the agencies, obtaining hardcopies from others as well as payments of non-tax
revenues, depending on the requirements of each agency.
Information regarding the approvals and status of requests from FF to these agencies is usually updated
through the Indonesian National Single Window (INSW), which operates mostly as a portal to obtain updates and information about the status of the process in different government agencies. Most of these
documents can be obtained before the arrival of the vessel, except for the goods requiring further analysis,
lab tests and inspections after arrival (e.g. some food categories, pharmaceuticals, etc)
Once the FF has the set of documents and approvals from the relevant agencies, the FF drafts a PIB by doing a self-evaluation of the goods imported and calculating the amount of duties and taxes to be paid to
Customs.
With this estimation, the FF pays at the Bank and awaits for a confirmation of the receipt of the funds from
Treasury. Although confirmation from Treasury to the bank on the receipt of the funds is electronic, this
transfer of funds only happens once a day, yet creating another source of delays.
With the confirmation of the payment, the FF can submit the PIB to Customs via EDI, starting the Customs
Clearance process.
Based on the importers information, the type of imported goods , the country of origin, the tax profile of
the company and other factors, Customs then assigns one of the five risk categories available. Depending
on the risk channel assigned, the importer will obtain a different treatment for Customs clearance, thus
determining the length of the stay in the port from there on.
Indonesian risk management has the standard 3 channels one would expect to find in other countries that
resemble a traffic light (i.e. green, yellow and red) and 2 additional special channels, MITA Prioritas and
MITA. The green channel usually means the importer obtains clearance without further revisions, yellow
means document inspections and red means physical and document inspection. Average times for these
channels are 5.8 days for green, 6.8 for yellow and 8.6 for the red channel (as of February 2012).
Mita Prioritas and Mita are special channels for pre-approved importers. These importers have complied
with a specific set of Customs requirements, including exemplary tax history records, minimum capital
limits and recurrent and periodic import of goods, among others. The benefits for these importers have a
real impact on dwell-time, especially for Mita Prioritas companies. Importers under this category have their
taxes and duties deferred and are not required to submit the BC 1.1. in the PIB submission.
Mita importers do not have these benefits, but they are waived from submitting hard copies to Customs
after removing the container from the port. For dwell-time purposes, Mita importers have the same treatment as green channel importers.
On the downstream stage, after obtaining Customs clearance, the FF arranges for transportation of the
containers and pays the port handling and storage fees.
The FF obtains the final invoice (SP2) from the terminal (JICT) and has about eight hours to pay and leave
the premises before the bill expires. Since most banks do not operate 24/7, most of the payments occur in
the mornings, yet adding another source of delay to the process.
After the removal of the container from the port, the importers, except Mita and Mita Prioritas, have 3 days
to submit hardcopies of their import declaration and supporting documentation to the archives of Customs
in the port.
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 2
Contrary to widespread perceptions of poor performance of Customs and abuses of port facilities by importers, a recent study from the World Bank in collaboration with the Institut
Teknologi Bandung (ITB), shows that the main cause of the delay is the pre-clearance stage,
accounting for 58 percent of DT (Figure 4.2). Although many sources of delay can be seen
throughout the import process, focusing on the efficiency gains on the upstream component
could highly impact the overall dwell-time average of Tanjung Priok. The Customs clearance
average time is already very competitive by international standards, accounting for approximately 1 day. On the downstream component, a faster removal of the containers would require larger investments in infrastructure to improve road connections and probably a deeper
transformation of the trucking industry.

Analysis and Discussion
Understanding the reasons behind the large number on days in upstream processes would
bring the highest returns to the efforts on reducing dwell-time. In consultation with private
sector8, Government agencies9 and academia10, the World Bank came across some explanations for the delays on the upstream component:

Section 2
1. 24/7 is not working
•
A large percentage of the vessels arrive on Saturday and Sunday, averaging 38% of the
total of containers that arrive in one week (Monday through Sunday).
•
Most of the freight forwarders, shipping line companies and banks do not work over
weekends or after business hours, pushing the submission of the import declaration (PIB)
until the following Monday, delaying the start of the clearance process. Thus, while the
number of container increases, the number of submissions for the customs clearance
stage decreases (Figure 4.3).
•
Customs services are only available on request during weekends or after business hours,
thus adding an extra step if the importer wants to clear its good during the weekend.
Figure 4.3 Average percentage of container arriving in Tanjung Priok vs. Average of Import
declaration submissions
Source: Jakarta International Container Terminal (JICT) and DG Customs, May 2012
2. Delay on the submission of the import declaration
30
•
There is a significant delay on the submission of the manifest to Customs from vessels
coming from transhipment in Singapore or Malaysia. These routes sometimes have very
few hours to consolidate the manifest, thus this information is delivered only a few hours
before the vessel docks in Tanjung Priok and sometimes even after the vessel has already
docked. The manifest information (BC1.1.) is needed to submit the PIB, thus the delay
on obtaining the BC 1.1. impacts the time at which the customs clearance process starts.
•
The priority risk channel (i.e. MITA Prioritas) has a relative short dwell (average of 4 days)
but they only account for 16% of the containers and consist of a limited group of 105 importers. Importers on this risk channel are allowed deferred payments for customs duties
and taxes, and they do not need to submit the Manifest number in the import declaration,
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 2
thus the submission of the import declaration occurs earlier than in other channels. The
number of importers in this group has not changed in recent years, so an effort to increase
its members or adopt more flexible policies regarding the BC1.1. information and introducing other payment options would increase the efficiency gains in dwell-time.
3. The Indonesian National Single Window (INSW) is not yet an optimal one-stop services
facility for import clearance
•
The INSW is a limited space for notifications and status information from each institution.
Customs clearance and other border agencies’ document requirements function in separate systems and are not integrated into a seamless process. On well-functioning single
windows, users submit the information required by several agencies in a single entry, with
a single sign-on, including payments. This system reduces physical interactions and paperbased transactions.
•
Payment processes need to be done separately for all Government Agencies and port
institutions, including payment of import duties, taxes, agencies’ fees, terminal operator
charges and others.
•
The Quarantine Agency does not have access to the information on the arrival of the vessel. An estimate of 15% of total import containers requires quarantine documentation
and approvals. Some imports also require entry permits and unloading permits, so in the
absence of pre-arrival information, the work performed by the Quarantine agency relies
heavily on the importer.
Despite the increase of average DT over the last year, Pelindo II, the container terminal operators and the Government have made some efforts to revert the situation including:
•
Abolishment of cash payments on container terminal premises and introduction of ATM
transactions. Although not yet optimal, reducing cash transactions is a first step on reducing delays on the downstream component.
•
Shifting the day of exchange rate publication from Monday to Thursday or Friday. This
shift would allow the importers to submit the PIB before the weekend with the most updated information. In the past, the exchange rate would be published on Monday which
would yet give another reason to delay the submission of the import declaration.
•
The introduction of i-care system (integrated cargo release) was recently launched in Tanjung Priok to integrate all services on the downstream component. The system tries to
eliminate the face-to-face interactions between the drivers of the trucks and the customs
officials at the gate. The trucking company will use an e-card for passing through the automatic gate, and customs will print such an e-ticket for tacking the containers out/in the
port. Services include e-Delivery Order, e-billing for cargo stay at the port, ordering the
truck online, and the e-ticket for entrance and exit of the port. The trial has been implemented in TPK Koja since November 2012 and it is also integrated with the INSW, and
would mostly impact the downstream component.
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013

Section 2
•
4.4
Although not yet launched, the Government is setting up an Integrated Physical Inspection Facility (TPFT) which will allow Customs, Quarantine and BPOM to have inspections
at the same time, reducing the movement of containers and allowing for faster physical
inspection times on the yellow and red channels. The TPFT is being developed in conjunction with Pelindo II and all the Government agencies and it is supposed to be launched
in the first quarter of 2013. This initiative would help reduce the average dwell-time of
containers falling into the yellow and red channels.
How to Reduce DT ?
Since the beginning of the study in November 2010, the World Bank has attended several
rounds of discussions with Customs, Pelindo II, academia, container terminals, association of
shippers, association of importers, banks and other Government agencies based in the port.
The discussion has even reached the Secretary of the Cabinet, the Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Transportation and Ministry of Trade. Some of the conclusions reached to reduce the
upstream component of dwell-time are as follows:
1. Consider to increase the number of importers on the MITA Priority lane
An assessment by DG Customs on the options to increase numbers of MITA Priority importers
is an important step to facilitate eligible importers to access the channel. Given the strong
prospect for Indonesian manufacturers to join the regional production network, discussing
with key stakeholders on establishing clear, reasonable, and transparent criteria for importers
to join MITA Priority channel will help improve competitiveness of Indonesian manufacturers.
2. Allow for more parallel processes to take place during the Customs Clearance component
More flexible procedures that can happen in parallel, instead of sequencing the steps, could
potentially help on reducing times for the preclearance component. For example, allowing the
payment to happen before the clearance (SPPB) but after the submission of the PIB. Currently,
the importer has to pay all duties and taxes to Customs before starting the clearance process.
Another parallel process that would help reducing dwell-time, would allow for the input of
the BC1.1. information before the SPPB but after the submission of the PIB. This information
is needed to match the contents of the ship with the importer claim of the containers. Parallel
processes that would let the clearance process start while the matching of the information on
the containers would also help on the reduction of steps of the upstream component.
3. Provide incentives for early submission of the import declaration
• DG Customs and terminal operator need to socialize the early submission of import declarations to importers and freight forwarders. A good communication campaign aligned
with incentives for early submission might encourage importers to start the pre-clearance
process.
•
32
Incentives for early submission of the import declaration could include tax discounts, duties discounts, as well as reduced tariffs in the container terminal fees. Such incentives
might encourage freight forwarders and importers to compensate for the cost of operating over Saturday and Sunday.
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 2
•
•
Perform evaluation and profiling of freight forwarders by DG Customs to identify and penalize those companies that delay the submission of the import declaration.
Improve 24/7 services by introducing service-level agreements between the terminal operator and the shipping lines, to encourage operations over weekends. Government agencies could reach a similar agreement.
4. Improve INSW and introduce one-stop services
• Improve the INSW or, as an interim step, develop a one-stop services space where various institutions have access to all information, including Quarantine, Customs and BPOM.
• Implement a single payment for all import process, including all Government agencies
fees, taxes and import duties, as well as all terminal charges.

5. Preliminary Assessment of
Implementation 24/7 Program
In Tanjung Priok Port
5.1
Background
The objective of introducing 24/7 maritime port services (“the 24/7”) is to reduce congestion at maritime ports by extending the number of operating hours for handling sea cargo.
In Indonesia, the 24/7 has been introduced since mid-January 2010. Various authorities and
border control agencies accompanied with logistics service providers at ports have made their
services available beyond their conventional business hours since the launch of the 24/7.
The 24/7 operations are primarily use to reduce congestions at Port by balancing work load
during the week or during peak time to off-peak time. Utilizing 24 hours a day and 7 days per
week gives extra time for documents processing and clearance process, which lead to speedup overall processes and prevent congestion at the port.
However, from the World Bank preliminary assessment and interview to freight forwarders,
the impact of 24/7 has been rather limited. They claimed it is due to lack of coordination
among the port community, insufficient equipment for working at night time and stagnant
“night time” demand growth among users.
The Government of Indonesia has been supporting the concept of monitoring to evaluate the
implementation status of the 24/7 and has shown interest to take the necessary actions to
enhance the effectiveness of the 24/7 together with the port community.
5.2
Evaluation of 24/7 Operations at Tanjung Priok Port
This section presents a summary of a preliminary assessment carried out by the World Bank in
Jakarta aimed at analyzing and evaluating the existing condition of 24/7 operations at Tanjung
Priok port. There are two main indicators to evaluate the 24/7 operations, these indicators
are:
34
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 2
•
Operations of 24 hours per day. This evaluation aims at operations beyond normal working office hours (8.00 – 18.00). It is more focussed on hourly operations per day.
•
Operations of 7 days per week. This evaluation aims at operations during the weekend
(Saturday and Sunday).
This summary also analyzes the two main actors of 24/7 operations at the port of Tanjung
Priok, namely 1) border crossing agencies (Customs, Quarantine and BPOM) and 2) terminal
operators (Jakarta International Container Terminal or JICT).
5.3
Summary of Findings
Currently, Customs is operating 24/7 but not effectively, while Quarantine and BPOM is not
operating 24/7. The analysis showed that operations of 7 days per week deem to be more
critical than operations of 24 hours per day. This is shown from data analysis that most containers arrive during the weekend, while there are little activities from border agencies for the
customs clearance process during the weekend. This should be the main focus of the Government of Indonesia in order to improve the operations of 24/7 at the port of Tanjung Priok.
Figure 5.1 explains the importance of 7 days per week operations.
Figure 5.1 Average Terminal Gate-out vs. Submission of Import Declaration and Customs
Clearance (SPPB Release)
Sources: Customs and JICT
Note: Figure 5.1 explains the daily average of containers processed for customs clearance and containers going out of the
terminal from Monday to Sunday. The data indicate less activities in the weekends comparing to working days during the
week.
The analyzed data suggest that there are no major improvements in 24/7 operations between
October 2010 and March 2012. The 24/7 operations at Tanjung Priok port have been limited
to terminal operations of loading and unloading containers and activities such as gate-out
containers. However, administrative processes such as customs clearance and payments of
duty and payments to the terminal operator have been limited to normal working hours only.
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
35
Section 2
About 36% of total containers arrived during weekend while only 5.5% of the number of documents was processed for customs clearance during the weekend (Figure 5.2). This pattern of
incoming containers arriving over the weekend (Saturday – Sunday) without being processed
is creating an imbalance between in-bound and cleared containers adding to the dwell time
of containers in the port. Implementation of a system of 24/7 operations would enable the
processing of in-bound containers arriving during the weekend, reducing the dwell time at the
port of Tanjung Priok.
Figure 5.2 In-Bound Container vs. SPPB Release Container - Total for March 2012
Sources: Customs and JICT
Note: Figure 5.2 explains the unbalance between the numbers of in-bound containers versus customs cleared containers from
Monday to Sunday. The data indicate that the peak of in-bound containers is Saturday and Sunday, while only a small amount
of containers had been cleared during the weekend by Customs.
Private sector entities such as banks and shipping line offices are not implementing 24/7 program.
36
•
Banks that only accept payments of duty and payment to terminal operator have been
limited to normal working hours (3.00 PM and half day on Saturday).
•
Shipping lines are also not open for 24/7 and do not have electronic payment facilities for
the delivery order process (DO). This will affect the transaction of payment for releasing
the DO to the consignees as the payment is limited to normal working hours.
•
Quick interviews of freight forwarders revealed that freight forwarders only operate at
normal working hours (Monday to Friday) due to high costs of operation. Trucking companies will charge extra fee for delivery beyond 5 PM. However, most trucks are coming
in or out of the port in Tanjung Priok at night time in order to reduce traffic congestion in
the city (see Figure 5.4).
•
Quick interviews of importers revealed that importers do not feel any benefit of using
24/7 and limit operations during the weekend due to high costs involved; limited warehouse and storage are also reasons for low demand from importers to utilize 24/7 at
Tanjung Priok port. This can also be seen from the data showing a drop in the import
declaration submission (PIB) to low level during the weekend (Figure 5.1).

Note: Figure 5.3 explains the average number of containers gate-out from JICT terminal. The data indicate that the removal of
containers is utilizing 24 hours operations to prevent traffic congestion in the city.
There have been limited operations of 24/7 for Government Agencies.
•
Customs is operating for 24 hours per day but not in an effective way especially in quarantine processing. Only 8% of the containers get customs clearance after office hours (18.00
– 07.00). Figure 5.4 shows the average hourly customs clearance.
•
Customs cited insufficient equipment and staff limitations to perform physical checks at
night (night time physical inspection only by request). Based on interviews with freight
forwarders, customs officers working at night shift are not able to make final decisions.
Thus, if the importers require a final decision, they must wait until next morning.
•
When the survey was conducted, the quarantine services and BPOM were not open on
Saturday and Sunday. Both agencies were also only open during normal working time, not
during 24 hours.
•
Coordination among the government agencies is still a challenge. Information technology
sharing among them can efficiently schedule night shift for their staff and resources can
be allocated according to the needs and requirements.
•
Terminal operator carries out loading and unloading of containers 24 hours per day (Figure 5.5, shows night operation of loading and unloading activities at JICT terminal). However, documents and payment are not processed 24 hours per day. Although payment can
be done electronically through the Bank Mandiri ATM, hard-copy invoices still are needed.

What has the government done so far?
Currently, the Indonesia Port Corporation
(IPC) is working on the development of an
i-care system. The i-care and auto gate system, which connect bank – terminal operator – freight forwarder are expected to give
a better solution to alleviate the problem
of the 24/7 program. I-care and auto gate
system have the ability to process online
payment using internet. Cash payments
on container terminal premises have been
abolished and replaced with ATM transactions.
Source: JICT
Currently, the system has been in trial/test phase on the KOJA terminal, with one MITA importer, a shipping line and a freight forwarder. The challenge is to implement the new system
effectively and to include all other relevant users and stakeholders including terminals operators, freight forwarders, importers, shipping liners and the Government agencies.
38
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 2
What is still missing?
Many government agencies and private sector companies argued that operating 24/7 is too
costly and not many importers demand the late night services or weekend services. The government should consider using incentives to attract more demand from the users for the implementation of 24/7. For example, the incentives can be a terminal handling charge discount
given to importers or freight forwarders that use 24/7 services.
At the same time, the Government needs to provide consistent 24/7 operations for all agencies and coordination among government agencies and stakeholders, which still are missing.
This can be done not only by providing extra staff for night shift but also sharing information
by means of using better Information Technology for efficient staff scheduling to reduce costs
of 24/7 operations.

6. Development of Dry Ports
in Indonesia Case Study of Cikarang Dry Port
6.1
Background
Cikarang Dry Port is located in the heart of the largest manufacturing zone of Indonesia along
the Bekasi-Cikampek corridor, which lies east of Greater Jakarta. Cikarang Dry Port is owned
by Jababeka, a private company and land developer of industrial areas in Cikarang. Cikarang
Dry Port is situated 50 km from Tanjung Priok Port and is accessible via highway and a railway
system. Jababeka Industrial Estate hosts over 2,500 manufacturing companies, and, together
with neighbouring industrial estates along the Bekasi-Cikampek toll road corridor, it contributes up to 62% to Tanjung Prioks throughput (Figure 6.1).

State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 2
In the past few years Tanjung Priok Port has been growing rapidly (Figure 6.2). One of the main
drivers for the development of Cikarang Dry Port was to reduce delay time and extra costs associated with the congestion at Tanjung Priok Port. The idea behind development of Cikarang
Dry Port (CDP) was to have integrated logistics facilities and services that handle import and
export as well as domestic shipments to support Tanjung Priok Port. Thus, Cikarang Dry Port
would serve as an extension of Tanjung Priok Port, or hub and spoke (Figure 6.1).
Figure 6.2 Tanjung Priok International Throughput (TEU)
Source: Indonesia Port Corporation, IPC (2012)
Cikarang Dry Port started its operations in 2010 allowing goods to be shipped directly to Cikarang Dry Port. Development of Cikarang Dry Port has not been smooth; it took more than
5 years until it became fully operational. Mainly because Cikarang Dry Port is a new concept,
systems for regulations and licenses needed to be established by the government agencies
from scratch. For smooth operation some of regulations that have been approved by the government agencies are listed below:
•
Land Usage Permit from the Local Government (District of Bekasi and the Governor of
West Java).

The Current State of Cikarang Dry Port
In 2012, the Cikarang Dry Port development has been supported and endorsed by the government in such a way that the action plan for the implementation of SISLOGNAS mentions the
need for optimization and increase of efficiency of Cikarang Dry Port. However, at the end of
2012, the throughput was still very low; only eight companies had applied for using dry ports
with total throughput of about 3,500 TEU from January 2012 to August 2012. Table 6.1 illustrates briefly the current situation of Cikarang Dry Port.

Some of the main findings from this study are list below.
•
Cost saving for using Cikarang Dry Port is mostly significant for importers that use the customs red channel. For the green channel, the costs are about the same as Tanjung Priok
(Table 6.1 for cost comparison).
•
Cikarang Dry Port can prevent extra costs incurred from ‘overbrengen’13. About 10–15% of
containers suffer from extra costs because of ‘overbrengen’.
•
Most of the importers located in Cikarang – Bekasi area have customs channel of ‘MITA
prioritas’ (priority channel). This explains that they do not need to use Cikarang Dry Port
since most of them already have their own customs bonded area.
•
Lack of rail infrastructure that connect the terminal operator in the port to Cikarang Dry
Port. Rail services have started since July 2012, but there still is a missing rail link in Tanjung Priok resulting in the need to transfer the container to the truck.
•
Direct competition with existing freight forwarders and road transport companies. Freight
forwarder operating trucks to/from Tanjung Priok and the Cikarang and Bekasi area would
not recommend using Cikarang Dry Port to their customers as they want to transport the
containers themselves.
•
There is a relatively limited number of shipping liners operating in Cikarang Dry Port. The
study found that the Cikarang Dry port will need to increase the number of shipping liners
in order to create a competitive rate.
To transfer container from terminal operator yard to another place in the port area when the terminal operator container
yard is already full.

Impact of Dwell Time in Tanjung Priok
One of the options that can be reviewed further in reducing dwell time at Tanjung Priok is to
perform optimization of Cikarang Dry Port. Based on analysis, the usage of CDP can reduce the
dwell time in Tanjung Priok up to 3 days (52% reduction)14. There is a great potential to utilize
CDP as part of the solution to reduce dwell time in Tanjung Priok. Assuming that the import
throughput at Tanjung Priok amounts 70.000 TEU / month and the dwell time at Tanjung Priok
is 6.2 days, the estimated reduction in dwell time due to the container being transported to
the CDP is as depicted in Figure 6.3.
Figure 6.3 Impact of Dwell Time in Tanjung Priok
Source: Estimated by World Bank staff
Figure 6.3 shows that the more Cikarang Dry Port will be utilized, the more reduction of dwell
time in Tanjung Priok can be achieved. However, as mentioned previously, still limited utilization is being made of Cikarang Dry Port. This is partly because of the fact that there is no
regulation and mechanism allowing ‘overbrengen’ to outside port of Tanjung Priok if it is not
indicated on the bill of lading. As Cikarang Dry Port is relatively new, it will need some time to
mature, resolve some of the issues previously mentioned, and convince the market that using
Cikarang Dry Port can have the benefits of shorter dwell time and reducing costs.

7. Capacity Development in Logistics
in Indonesia
7.1
Background
The global industry trend shows that the role of supply chain management and logistics management is increasingly more important in maintaining the companies’ sustainability. The
business of logistics and supply chain management has been growing rapidly after the financial crisis of the 1990’s, which, at the same time, has been accompanied by an increasing
demand for qualified professionals in supply chain management and logistics management.
The growth, however, has not been coupled with sufficient growth in professional human
resources. In general, human resources currently working in logistics and supply chain “accidentally” enter the field to fill the company’s vacancy rather than build their competency
from the beginning. The profession in logistics and supply chain has yet gained popularity in
the world of education and fresh graduates.
The shortage of professional logistics managers and experts in Indonesia is both in number
and in quality; meanwhile, the need for logistics experts in Indonesia grows at least equal to
the national economic growth rate. Some contributing factors are the national policy that
allows multinational companies operating in Indonesia to bring logistics professionals from
their home country or to recruit logistics professionals on the international labour market
even for operational logistics jobs. This condition also encouraged the Ministry of National
Education Policy (until 22nd March 2013) to acknowledge logistics as an integrated academic
discipline as both science and professional expertise. Most of the Indonesian business community is still not fully aware of the fact that in the globalization era, they need more and
more integrated qualified logistics expertise.
It is a fact that scarcity of logistics experts, specialists and professionals at the managerial and
operational levels in both the private and public sectors is prevalent in Indonesia. Further, the
existing human resources have poor competencies. Thus, in terms of human resources capacity in logistics, the challenges are: to increase logistics workforce and to improve the quality
and competencies of existing resources. Training and education institutions play an important
role in addressing these issues.
46
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 2
Another problem is the wide gap between the subjects offered at the existing educational and
training programs in higher education institutions with the needs from the labour market.
The existing education and training is provided on ad hoc basis by logistics companies and is
still not standardized. As a result, capacity building of human resources in logistics remains
unsatisfactory and their competency level low. In order to support the current growth of businesses and economies, education and training institutions are required to produce graduates
with basic knowledge directly needed by the corresponding industries.
In Indonesia, logistics related curricula are commonly taught as part of Industrial Engineering
or Economics study programs rather than a separate discipline. Moreover, education providers have yet to recognize that supply chain and logistics management are programs of increasing popular interest. At present, Logistics Management and Supply Chain Management (SCM)
as fields of study with Bachelor (S1) and/or Master (S2) degrees are offered by Trisakti College
of Transport Management, University of Gajah Mada, University of Indonesia, Technological
Institute of Bandung, Technological Institute of Sepuluh Nopember, University of Widyatama,
and University of Andalas. Their curricula are adoptive to the dynamics of logistics and SCM
development.
In other countries, study programs of Supply Chain Management with a degree or Professional
Certificate is offered widely. The absence of such formal certified program in Indonesia is because the authorized profession certification body for Supply Chain & Logistics Management
has not been established. Thus far, offered programs are mostly limited to periodic training,
seminars and workshops by PPM, INFA Institute, Asperindo, ALI and KADIN, in collaboration
with some universities in Indonesia.
Thus, the capacity building of logistics human resources is very critical to the development of
logistics related business in Indonesia. It is expected that demand for logistic professionals will
increase significantly in the future. Although no survey has been conducted, all parties agree
that, unless prepared early, Indonesian human resources capacity may become an obstacle to
developing an efficient logistics system.
7.2
Government Policy, Strategy and Program
SISLOGNAS has identified the development of human resources in logistics as one of the main
drivers for improvement of the national logistics system in Indonesia, to reduce logistics costs,
to make the country more competitive internationally, and to improve domestic connectivity.
There is an increasing demand for qualified professionals as well as operators in transport,
logistics and supply chain management. The adopted strategy is to develop international standard logistics competencies and to achieve the strategic goal, e.g. to make competent logistics professionals at operational, managerial and strategic level available on the Indonesian
market, fulfilling the national demand of the national logistics system. This goal is actualized
through the following programs and road map (Table 7.1):

1. Development of competencies for professionals in the field of logistics
• Logistics science, expertise and profession planning through recognizing and establishing
logistics as a science and profession needed, organized and developed in a formal way in
Indonesia, and preparing classifications and levels of logistics competencies and profession, and planning an educational and training system for national logistics profession.
•
Organizing professional education and training in logistics through providing nationally
certified education and training for government staff and logistics practitioners and service providers.
2
•
Improved role of education and training institutions
Development of professional education and training institutions in logistics through establishing academic and applied logistics study programs, development of an accreditation and certification agency for the logistics profession, establishment of logistics professional training institutions, improved support of the government for developing such
education and training institutions, and development and improvement of cooperation
networks between public and private education and training institutions and cooperation
with foreign partners.
•
Development of international standard education and training facilities through development of international standard academic education facilities and development of international standard applied education facilities.
7.3
Logistics Education System and Profession
The SISLOGNAS team has adopted a strategy to provide reliable professional logistics human
resources at the operational, managerial and strategic levels to meet the national needs. For
this purpose, the team found it necessary to classify and grade the logistics profession and establish logistics education institutions at academic, vocational and professional levels. In general, the goal to be secured is the availability of competent logistics professionals. To achieve
this, it is necessary to establish classification and structure of the logistics profession and to
establish logistics education institutions in academic, vocational and professional modes.
48
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 2
The framework for the establishment, classification and structure of the logistics professions
has to take into account both existing relevant laws and regulations as well as professional
educational references and standards. The relevant laws and regulations in this respect are
(1) Higher Education Regulations No. 12/2012, (2) Presidential Regulation No. 8/2012: Framework of Indonesian National Qualification (Kerangka Kualifikasi Nasional Indonesia/KKNI), (3)
Presidential Regulation No. 26/2012: Blueprint of National Logistics System (SISLOGNAS), and
Letter of Recognition of the Minister of National Education No. March 2013. Some professional educational references and standards are: (1) Logistics Body of Knowledge, (2) Competence
Standards of ELA, (3) Benchmarks of educational institutes such as Politechnic Hongkong, STC
Rotterdam NL, etc. Based on those references, the national education system in general is depicted in Table 7.2, the academic logistics education is presented in Figure 7.1, and vocational
education in Figure 7.2.

Related to logistics professional education, logistics related associations (such as ALI, ALFI and
ORGANDA) cooperate with the National Agency for Professional Certification (BNSP) and other educational institutions to create a logistics profession accreditation agency and an assessor agency to educate and issue professional certificates. The SISLOGNAS team has used the
principles of international standards for education and training in logistics management from
the European Logistics Association (Figure 7.3) as a basis to formulate professional competencies as presented on Table 7.4 at the various levels of the National Qualification Framework.

The three levels of logistics management of ELA are operational/supervisory; senior; and strategic. The ELA operational level corresponds with the levels 1-6 of the National Qualification
Framework; in fact the ELA operational level comes close to the KKNI levels 4-6 (supervisory,
D1-D3) as the ELA levels refer basically to levels of management. The ELA senior level corresponds with the levels 7-8 (D4/S1, S2). The ELA strategic level with KKNI level 9 (S3).

Current Progress
The SISLOGNAS Team is currently cooperating with the private sector to provide training on introductory supply chain management to local government officials as they are also the stakeholders of the national logistics policies. Training of trainers programs are also being planned
to prepare for the seed of logistics training by the local government educational communities.
In August 2012, Law No. 12/2012 on Higher Education was issued. This law puts heavy emphasize on the establishment of applied sciences programs in tertiary education level. Learning
value of education is prioritized and the community college (with one to two years program)
is among the specified higher learning institutions which establishment is to be encouraged
particularly at local governments (regencies and municipalities) with specific potential and
needs. The provisions of the Law provide for cooperation between local government, central
government and the private sector. The SISLOGNAS team is currently working together with
the private sector and the local government toward establishment of logistics community
colleges.
The Asosiasi Logistik Indonesia (ALI) has been granted a certification license for the competencies of Transportation, Warehousing and Procurement in December 2012. ALI has become
member of the European Logistics Association and intends to become the certifying authority
for ELA certified training in logistics management. The Indonesian Logistics and Forwarders
Association (ALFI) is in the certification process at the National Professional Certification Body
(BNSP) for the competency of ‘Maritime Transport Cargo Handling’.
52
State of Logistics Indonesia 2013
Section 2
In March 21-23, 2012, ORGANDA has organized a special pilot Eco-Driving Training Programme
for Safety & Efficiency, which was delivered by Panteia/NEA in Indonesia in Bogor. The main
objective was to transfer knowledge and experiences with regards to the training of professional bus and truck drivers to the Indonesian National Road Transport Operators Association.
Three groups have been trained: one group of bus drivers; one group of truck drivers; one
group of managers. The Eco-Driving Training Programme showed that it is possible to save at
least 20% of fuel by applying new driving techniques and better trip preparation, which can be
learned in a two-day training programme. Also the maintenance costs of the vehicle will decrease substantially when applying eco-driving principles. Finally, road safety records will be
improved by the fact that less accidents will occur. ORGANDA is now in the process to become
the certifying authority at BNSP for the competencies of professional truck and bus drivers,
terminal operators and total quality management.
7.5
Closing Remark
Well-educated logistics professionals is a must to achieve an effective and efficient National
Logistics System. Indonesia still lacks well-educated logistics professionals both in quantity
and quality, as well as appropriate formal national education and training institutions, which
do have the capacity and capability to offer these programs. Steps, however, already have
been taken to overcome this situation.
The framework for new education and training curricula in logistics should be based on international standards considering national requirements.
