REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Minister of Commerce, Zulkifli Hasan, said the government decided to restore the import control of goods from post-border to border to tighten the flow of goods entering Indonesia. The post border system is an oversight outside the customs area and has been circulated in communities supervised by relevant ministries/agencies.

Meanwhile, the border system is an oversight by officers of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise in the customs area before goods circulate to the community. Zulkifli said that the return of surveillance to the border was the government's commitment to support domestic industries, including the fashion industry.

Therefore, imports of imported goods need to be carefully monitored by restoring post-border to border surveillance for a number of products. “Post-border is returned to the border so that surveillance is stricter,” Zulkifli, also known as Zulhas, said in a written statement on Tuesday (24/10/2023).

He is optimistic that the country's fashion industry can enter the global fashion world. Moreover, Indonesia has a Muslim fashion industry that is being taken seriously by the government along with fashion activists in the country.
