I’m writing this report on Thursday, 29th May, 2008 05.39 Batam time. It’s mean, 5 and half hours already the gas supply from PT. Gas Negara (PGN) – the national gas company supplier belong to Indonesian Government – stop his gas supply to industrial park in hole of Batam Island. This cut off supply will continuing until Friday, 30 May, 2008.
Do you know what the impacts of this gas crisis? Of cause, this crisis will strike the 900 foreign companies in Batam Island. The impact is electricity supply will make that all companies so hard. Event the industrial park management move the electricity supply to the alternative, but this condition will be the “bad advertising” about Free Trade Zone (FTZ) and Free Trade of Batam Island. As the investor, do you wanna invest your money to this industrial park like this?
The reasoning of cut off supply is because PT.PGN will overhaul the pipe line from Jambi to Batam Island. Actually, this cut off gas supply happen to the PT. PLN (Pelayanan Listrik Negara) Batam – the government electricity services – too. The mean, PT. PLN Batam can’t operated they engines. So that why, PT. PLN Batam will black out for the hole Batam Island to day after a month the electricity stop down 2-3 times all day.
I’ve little experience, three day’s ago I want to buy the emergency lamp, what ever product. But do you know what happen? The emergency lamp is too difficult to find in Batam Island. Event the biggest one tools shop and in the super mall too. So, today we are “enjoy” the black out together with 900 foreign companies. (!)
