Indonesia revitalising textile sector

With exports of textile and textile products rising in Indonesia, the Government there is trying to revitalise the sector by introducing new machines and equipment and issuing economic policy packages. There are also plans for a special regulation on fiscal incentives in the form of fiscal allowance for export oriented labour intensive industry.

Industrialists would have income tax discounts for business expansion under the incentives planned, an Indonesian news agency report said.

Indonesia's exports of textile and textile products (TPT) were valued at $2 billion in the first two months of 2017, three per cent higher than those in the same period last year, the report said.

"TPT industry is a labour industry providing jobs for around three million people that it could serve as a social safety net," industry minister Airlangga Hartarto said in a statement. In 2016 investment in TPT industry was worth Rp 7.54 trillion with exports valued at $11.87 billion employing 17.03 per cent of workers in the manufacturing sector.

The minister said he was optimistic that the country's TPT industry could compete globally especially as the industry had been integrated from upstream to downstream sectors. However, the industry needed revitalisation as the majority of factories used old machines especially weaving and knitting factories. The machines needed replacement.

印尼振兴纺织行业

随着印尼纺织品和纺织产品的出口上升，政府试图通过引入新的机器和设备以及发布经济政策来重振该行业。也有特别规定为出口导向的劳动密集型产业以财政津贴形式的财政激励计划。

在激励计划下，实业家将获得所得税优惠用于业务扩张，印尼通讯社报道说。

在2017年的头两个月，印尼纺织品和纺织产品出口价值20亿美元，比去年同期高出百分之三，报告称。

“纺织品和纺织产品行业是一个劳动型的行业，为大约三百万人提供就业机会，它可以作为一个社会保障体系，”工业部长Airlangga Hartarto在一份声明中说。2016年纺织品和纺织产品行业投资价值7.54万亿卢比，出口价值118.7亿美元，制造业雇佣17.03%的工人。

部长说，他乐观地认为该国纺织和纺织品产品行业可以进行全球竞争，尤其因为行业已经从上游到下游行业。然而,这个行业需要复兴，因为大多数工厂使用旧机器，尤其是编织和针织工厂。机器需要更换。
