With these guidelines, we have systematic and comprehensive guidance to deal with various security challenges that may arise,” added Vega, in his remarks.
Maintaining the investment climate
These guidelines cover various critical aspects, such as risk assessment, security management, threat response, and post-incident recovery. The implementation of these guidelines is expected to improve coordination between agencies, strengthen the surveillance system, and ensure better preparedness in dealing with various potential threats.

Until now, the Jababeka Industrial Estate has been very safe with the help of various parties (Bekasi Metro Police and KOREM 051 Wijayakarta) until it has been successful for more than 30 years and has gone through cycles and challenges, such as the 1998 reform era and the economic crisis in 2004. We are trying not to let our (investment) chart be normal or go down, but the graph can continue to rise so that the manufacturing industry does not move or investors can enter the Jababeka Industrial Estate.
With this signing, the goal is that we can maintain the investment climate as well as the Jababeka Industrial Estate has competitiveness with competitors, from industrial estates in Johor-Malaysia, Viet Nam and Thailand. Where the Jababeka Industrial Estate can provide legal certainty and security. So that investors can be confident in investing in the Jababeka Industrial Estate and creating jobs as much as possible.”

“I really appreciate and thank you for the implementation of the signing of this cooperation. This is a positive thing for the common good, so that investors do not move abroad or investors can continue to survive,” said Brigadier General Pol Suhendri, S.H., S.I.K., M.PSDM.
“With this collaboration, we will build how the security management system can be implemented in the Jababeka Industrial Estate. Not only physical security such as installing CCTV and so on, but we will build a system from upstream to downstream. So that the business process can run smoothly, safely, in an orderly manner, without any interruptions. I Hopefully, if one thing happens, we can mitigate it or solve the problem immediately, without protracting, without disrupting business activities in industrial estates,” he added.
