P.T. NEC Humpuss Semiconductors Indonesia​

Celebrates Official Opening Ceremony​

---

NEC Corporation's (NEC) joint venture in Indonesia, P.T. NEC Humpuss Semiconductors Indonesia, is holding an official opening ceremony today at the East Jakarta Industrial Park in the Jakarta suburb of Bekasi.
The ceremony will be hosted by Mr. Masaru Nakagiri, President of P.T. NEC Humpuss Semiconductors Indonesia. The guests of honor are Mr. Tunky Ariwibowo, Ir., Minister of Industry and Trade and Dr. Hisashi Kaneko, President of NEC Corporation.

This new assembly plant, with a capital investment of 4.5 billion yen (US$ 45 million), is the first Japanese-Indonesian semiconductor joint venture in Indonesia. It was officially established in September 1995 as a joint venture between NEC Corporation, P.T. Humpuss Elektronika and Sumitomo Corporation.

The plant began production in January this year and is targeting to manufacture 15 million ICs and 100 million Signal Transistors per month. These products are used in personal computers, televisions, VCRs and other home electronic products.

NEC has an ambitious five year plan for the plant, where the company will eventually employ 600 staff and see annual sales of US$ 45 million. It plans to continue financial and technical investments by introducing high technology products in the future, such as microcomputers and ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits).

The Indonesian government has long been nurturing the growth of high-tech industries in Indonesia, and this positive stance towards technology was an influential factor in NEC participating in a joint venture here. Moreover, NEC's global semiconductor strategy is for production and sales functions to be located in each of its markets. With this in mind, NEC entered into the joint venture with P.T. Humpuss Elektronika and Sumitomo Corporation.

"This joint venture brings together the complimentary strengths of the three partners to achieve their long term goals", said Dr. Hisashi Kaneko, President of NEC Corporation. "In line with our 'C&C' corporate philosophy (the integration of computers and communications), NEC has again demonstrated that it is committed to Asia's development, not just economically, but also to provide the people with the technological skills they would need to be competitive as we approach the next millennium".

The addition of P.T. NEC Humpuss Semiconductors Indonesia to the NEC global Semiconductor Group brings the number of its plants in Asia to four, enhancing NEC's position as the second largest semiconductor company in the world. Besides strengthening NEC's global production network, NEC aims for this new joint venture to contribute to the economic and technological progress of Indonesia and the Asian region.

NEC: News Release 97/06/10-01

It was another assembly and test facility. Assembly or test are important tasks no doubt.

However, with Singapore losing its competitive edge in this critical industry, Indonesia can not afford to remain at the bottom of the value chain anymore.

Indonesia would have to move up the value chain or abandon any hopes of claiming its place as the leading regional player.

With no semiconductor industry, no nuclear or space technology achievements of note, it is hard to imagine a region led by Indonesia.

To the best of my understanding, there is no aircraft engine, turbofan or turbojet, with low bypass ratio or high bypass ratio, that were ever designed, built, assembled and tested in Indonesia.

I would argue there is indeed a really long way to go for Indonesia before it can be compared favourably with relatively smaller countries such as Turkey, Egypt, Iran, Pakistan or Saudi Arabia in industrial, technological or defence-industry matters.

It is not certain if Indonesia can compare favourably against its immediate neighbour to the South in Australia or to two of the bigger Asian/global giants in China or India.

Arguably, South Korea and Taiwan are individually much more powerful and more advanced than Indonesia in many areas of interest.

Can't argue it's a fact.

which country are you ?

 

[lego jangkar]

There may be a misunderstanding in this case.

The facility in question was involved in assembly and test.

There was never an integrated circuit manufacturing facility in Indonesia to the best of my understanding.

None of the examples you have provided are of manufacturing or IC wafer fabrication. No electronic or photonic Integrated Circuitry was ever manufactured in Indonesia from the info you have provided.

While assembly and test are important tasks, they are separate from manufacturing IC, designing IC or supplying raw materials or equipment used in their fabrication.



The above is an example of a raw material supplier to the wafer fabrication industry.




Both of the above firms were involved in assembly and testing in Indonesia. Located in Batam next to Singapore, their raison d'être would have been to serve the wafer fabs next door in Singapore.

Attractively priced labour in Batam, in close proximity to Singapore, is the only possible explanation for their operation.

Omedata electronics and Astra microtonics technology they were manufactured ICs and Chipsets

SINGAPORE -- The sale of a PT Astra Indonesia electronics unit to a U.S.-owned investment fund, one of the first sales by a debt-ridden Indonesian group, has been completed.
An Astra executive and CIBC World Markets, its advisers, said all documentation for the $90 million sale to Newbridge Capital Asia was completed Wednesday in Jakarta. "The deal is done and the payment will be made shortly," the Astra executive said.
In the transaction, first agreed to in September, Astra sold PT Astra Microtronics Technology, an integrated circuit assembly and test subcontractor on Batam Island, about 20 kilometers from Singapore.
Newbridge is mostly owned by two U.S. private investors, Texas Pacific Group and Richard C. Blum & Associates of San Francisco. Newbridge manages more than $8 billion.

Astra, Indonesia's largest auto assembler, said earlier this year that it would sell some noncore assets to deal with debt problems stemming from the country's economic crisis. In October, Astra said that some units of the group, including the parent company Astra International, had to halt interest payments to creditors. The group is currently working with creditors on a debt-restructuring plan.
A statement from CIBC quoted Ralph Deceour, chief executive officer of Astra Microtronics, as saying he's confident the acquisition by Newbridge will increase his company's productivity. "With the strong financial support of our new owner, we can concentrate on expanding the business, with clear strategic direction," he said.

Microchips cut and tested at the Batam factory go into handphones, personal computers and television remote controllers. Newbridge, without citing figures, said that Astra Microtronics' revenue has increased 30% a year over the past three years.

So the sell is due to Asia Financial Crisis.....One lost opportunity due to Asian Financial crisis, but the crisis has also made us a democratic country.

in 1998s Rini Soewandi as the CEO of Astra group sold it to an investment company new bridge asia
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in September 1998, a TPG affiliate that invests in Asian companies-called Newbridge Asia-bought PT Astra Microtronics Technology , a chip assembly and testing contractor near Singapore. Turns out that Astra “has among its customers, just by chance, both Zilog and Motorola,” says Coulter. Although the relationship was purely coincidental, “it sure made the due diligence easier,” he notes.

They wanted larger caliber rocket, in which had dual use if developed properly. As base for tactical balistic Missiles and satellite vehicles.

Interesting to see. Many of our officials have visited Turkey lately, including new Mindef about 4 times. N 219 cooperation look like will be realized and possible joint development of N 245. It is good to broaden the market and minimize the cost. Turkey is very likely to be agree on supplying missile to our Male UAV if we see both parties seems very keen to develop close relationship to each other.

No N245 on the Table right now, for transfer of technology and defense cooperation with Turkey Indonesia is very much focused on Aselsan Radio comm , and further cooperation on combat management system (for UAV consol module) along with integration of Turkish Made system, then rocket technology. But first thing on hand, they are focused more on completion of IT CEPA agreement first as it is more urgent.

Only the truck and body of the launcher are made by them, the electronic system (panel and others) is made by state owned company PT Dahana (explosive specialist)

All calibers has their own min- max ranges and their own usages. Turkey currently can offer a broad range of artillery missiles in calibers of 107-122-230-300-600-610mm if Indonesia is interested. Also i don't think Turkey would hesitate to share know-how on small to medium diameters.

All of these, except 107, have guided (GPS) versions, some inherits a guidance from scratch, some has guidance kits available, and SAL guidance is becoming available for all. (also IIR, MMW and Active Radar seeker is expected)
