REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- There will be no new construction of government buildings in the future as the government is laying greater focus on infrastructure development for the public, stated Vice President Jusuf Kalla.

"There are already a lot of government buildings," remarked Kalla while opening the national conference of the Indonesian Builders Association (Gapensi) here on Tuesday (9/12).

According to the vice president, the government had allocated budget to build more public facilities in the future such as hospitals, schools, airports, seaports, roads, power plants, and irrigation networks.

Jusuf Kalla called on the national contractors to continue work on their construction projects by cooperating with private parties.

The vice president lauded the capacity of national contractors, whose numbers he believed had increased over the years. However, Kalla emphasized that national contractors should constantly improve themselves, especially with regard to using technology in construction projects.
