Indonesia Motorcycle Industry Still Rely on Import: http://otomotif.kompas.com/read/2017/12/04/084200415/industri-sepeda-motor-indonesia-masih-bergantung-impor/4 December 2017
Sigit Kumala, Chairman of Commercial Field of AISI said that already 100 percent of motorcycle manufacturing process is done in the country. However, there are still obstacles regarding the micro composition of the material. Currently the micro composition of the material still 60 percent dependent on steel, in which 59 percent of this contribution is still imported. Then plastic pellets or resin that fills 11 percent of motorcycle components, and synthetic rubber, the material is also still imported.

And the raw materials from abroad depend on the value of the currency, so it will be difficult if the rupiah weakens. Meanwhile, if the raw material already exists in the domestic then the transaction uses rupiah, and easier to plan the selling price. So if this can be held in the country, will make motorcycle products more competitive, especially to increase exports. However, Sigit still can not predict there will be growth of what percent, if all raw materials are available in the country. Currently, the Level of Domestic Content (TKDN) of motorcycles is already above 90 percent.
