REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, MEMPAWAH -- Chief Executive of state-owned port operator PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Pelindo) II, Elvyn G. Masassya said work in the first phase of development of the Kijing seaport in the district of Mempawah, West Kalimantan, will start this year.

"In September this year, work is expected to start in the first phase of development of the port to be completed in 2019. Construction for the second phase is to follow in 2022," Elvyn said here on Friday.

He said the port would be designed as an international port complete with modern facilities and infrastructure such as container terminal.

"It will have a capacity of 2.5 million TEUS per year, but 1.5 million TEUS in the first phase," he said.

The port area will occupy a land plot of 200 hectares, but in long term the port area would be expanded to 5,000 hectares as it is planned to build an industrial estate, integrated with the port, he said.

A number of state and private companies have indicated interest in teaming up with Pelindo II to develop the ports and industrial estate, but the concrete form of the cooperation is yet to be discussed, he said.

He said the port is expected to contribute greatly to the economic development of West Kalimantan as the location is quite strategic facing East Asia.

"The port project is very potential especially West Kalimantan has a number of export commodities," he said.

West Kalimantan has large oil palm plantations and large bauxite mine and processing industry being developed.

يَسْتَفْتُوْنَكَۗ قُلِ اللّٰهُ يُفْتِيْكُمْ فِى الْكَلٰلَةِ ۗاِنِ امْرُؤٌا هَلَكَ لَيْسَ لَهٗ وَلَدٌ وَّلَهٗٓ اُخْتٌ فَلَهَا نِصْفُ مَا تَرَكَۚ وَهُوَ يَرِثُهَآ اِنْ لَّمْ يَكُنْ لَّهَا وَلَدٌ ۚ فَاِنْ كَانَتَا اثْنَتَيْنِ فَلَهُمَا الثُّلُثٰنِ مِمَّا تَرَكَ ۗوَاِنْ كَانُوْٓا اِخْوَةً رِّجَالًا وَّنِسَاۤءً فَلِلذَّكَرِ مِثْلُ حَظِّ الْاُنْثَيَيْنِۗ يُبَيِّنُ اللّٰهُ لَكُمْ اَنْ تَضِلُّوْا ۗ وَاللّٰهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيْمٌ ࣖ
Mereka meminta fatwa kepadamu (tentang kalalah). Katakanlah, “Allah memberi fatwa kepadamu tentang kalalah (yaitu), jika seseorang mati dan dia tidak mempunyai anak tetapi mempunyai saudara perempuan, maka bagiannya (saudara perempuannya itu) seperdua dari harta yang ditinggalkannya, dan saudaranya yang laki-laki mewarisi (seluruh harta saudara perempuan), jika dia tidak mempunyai anak. Tetapi jika saudara perempuan itu dua orang, maka bagi keduanya dua pertiga dari harta yang ditinggalkan. Dan jika mereka (ahli waris itu terdiri dari) saudara-saudara laki-laki dan perempuan, maka bagian seorang saudara laki-laki sama dengan bagian dua saudara perempuan. Allah menerangkan (hukum ini) kepadamu, agar kamu tidak sesat. Allah Maha Mengetahui segala sesuatu.”

(QS. An-Nisa' ayat 176)
