AS AN ADVISORY firm focused exclusively on infrastructure, we often help governments develop watershed economic and infrastructure programs aimed at increasing economic growth; but only rarely see the required political courage to implement such programs. A few years ago, I led a team of local and international infrastructure experts on a two-year study to analyze and benchmark eight different sectors within infrastructure in Indonesia, which was submitted for the development of RPJMN 2015-2019, the government’s five-year medium-term development plan. The then-incoming Joko Widodo administration adopted the study’s key components and issued the RPJMN 2015-2019 along with the NAWA CITA-9 Goals. Nawa Cita aimed to bring social equity to Indonesia via infrastructure projects, maritime connectivity, and reduced logistics costs, poverty and inequality. The Jokowi administration’s for-reaching infrastructure program totalled $342 billion—and like many I was sceptical.
