VIVAnews - The Indonesian government lists six sectors that must be dealt with sooner concerning the economy. The sectors, including energy, food, infrastructure, transportation, micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises, industrial and services revitalization, are likely to boost economic growth by seven percent by 2014.

The sectors require Rp 2,000 trillion worth of fund to meet the set target. "It is indeed yearly estimation," Coordinating Minister for the Economy Hatta Rajasa said on Monday, Nov 3.

On energy sector, the government was suggested on how to speed up power and electricity development which also aims at independent power producer (IPP) instead of only relying on state electricity company PLN.

"Policies which provide space to advanced growth of the IPP should be issued," he said.

Land acquisition should also be put into consideration because it affects investment.

"Better law products are needed in order to satisfy both parties, the investors or the people whose land are to be compensated," he said.
