2020 Macroeconomy

The spread of the Covid-19 has had an extraordinary impact on the global economy throughout 2020. This condition has caused the global economy in 2020 to face a crisis that has never been experienced before. The epicenter of this crisis is different from any previous crisis. The implementation of health policies to reduce the spread of Covid-19 has caused turmoil on financial markets and economic activities.

The Covid-19 and its handling policy through mobility restrictions triggered high global financial market uncertainty in the first half of 2020, which then put pressure on global financial markets and triggered more cautious investment behavior. The global economic slowdown resulted in a decline in world trade activities and commodity prices. The weakening of world demand due to the Covid-19 pandemic and disruption in global supply chain reduced the demand for the world exported and imported goods, resulting in decreased trade volume. In line with the progress in handling the Covid-19, increased mobility and continued policy stimulus, economic improvement began to be seen in a number of countries in the second semester of 2020. The process of global economic recovery continued in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Developments in various indicators in December 2020 confirmed the continuing improvement of global economy. However, overall global economic growth in 2020 is predicted to contract and recorded at -4.0%, down from 2.7% in 2019.

The Covid-19 pandemic put heavy pressure on Indonesia in 2020, not only on health and humanitarian aspects, but also on social and economic aspects. The slowdown in economy and the LargeScale Social Restriction (PSBB) policy to mitigate the spread of Covid-19, which reduced economic mobility, has resulted in a contraction in 2020 economic growth. The reduced mobility of people, goods and services has an impact on the weakening performance of almost all lines of business.

In the second semester, Indonesia’s economic growth began to improve in line with the easing of PSBB, the realization of increased fiscal stimulus, and the improvement in global economy. Increased mobility also supported the recovery of household consumption, particularly transportation, restaurant and hotel consumption. Spatially, the improvement in external and domestic demands also affected the economic recovery in several regions in Indonesia.

GDP contraction experienced a decrease in the third quarter, so that overall in 2020, Indonesia’s economic growth contracted by 2.07%. Inflationary pressure was also low in line with weak domestic demand. Meanwhile, the financial system, which was in good condition at the time the pandemic began, provided a cushion for the resilience of financial system. This condition was reflected in the remaining sound capital, credit quality and liquidity. However, the credit contracted by 2.4% in line with weak domestic demand and banking prudence in channeling credit.

The improving economy in the second semester of 2020 had a positive impact on the perception of investors, hence the foreign capital inflows were seen again and encouraged the strengthening of Rupiah exchange rate, as well as strengthened economic stability and accelerated the process of economic recovery.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has affected all industrial sectors, including the infrastructure sector. In the midst of the Government’s active efforts to accelerate infrastructure development, Covid-19 is a challenge that is quite difficult to overcome.

    2. Portfolio management;
    3. Risk management;
    4. Standardization of production;
    5. Optimization and integration of SAP system;
    6. Human capital development.

  5. Risk Management
    Waskita’s rapid growth needs to be supported by measured and effective risk management through Enterprise Risk Management Framework (“ERM”) as the basis for Board of Directors’ decision making in order to increase effectiveness and efficiency in achieving Company’s goals. Waskita established a target to increase ERM’s ability to be 5 (leading) in the next few years.

Financial Performance

In general, the Company’s strategies and policies have been well implemented, even though the Covid-19 pandemic that started in Indonesia since early March 2020 has hit the infrastructure industry, including the Company. The Large-Scale Social Restriction (PSBB) policy has resulted in restrictions on public activities and real sector. Then, domestic economic activities, including the infrastructure, construction and property industries, were limited in motion, which in turn had affected overall performance of the Company. With this macroeconomic influence, the Company recorded a decrease in operating revenue of -48.42%, from Rp31.39 trillion in 2019 to a decrease of Rp15.20 trillion to Rp16.19 trillion in 2020.

    2. Unit Price Contract
      Unit price contract is a procurement contract for the completion of all work within a certain time limit based on a determined and fixed unit price for each unit of work with certain specifications.
    3. Design and build contract
      Design and build contracts are project contracts where the planning and implementation work is assigned to a service provider (planner) appointed by the contractor, not by service users or to a collaborative agency between planners and contractors.
  3. Investment
    the Company has invested in concrete production/ manufacturing, construction and concessions of toll road, property, realty, hotels and non-toll road infrastructure through its subsidiaries, namely PT Waskita Beton Precast Tbk, PT Waskita Toll Road, PT Waskita Karya Realty, and PT Waskita karya Infrastruktur.

Constraints, Challenges, and Solutions

The Covid-19 pandemic greatly affected the Company’s business processes and had a significant impact on the declining Company’s financial performance. This was due to delays in construction and investment project tenders, delays in construction implementation, delays in receiving terminals due to reallocation of the government infrastructure budget, and a decrease in the Company’s investment performance, such as a decrease in toll operating income due to the implementation of strict health protocols, a decrease in recurring income from hotels and others.

The Covid-19 pandemic has also disrupted the Company’s strategy to divest toll roads due to low investor interest, limited domestic investor funds and lower selling prices. Thus, the Company must bear high financial costs due to the operation of its toll roads.

To achieve the predetermined vision, Waskita adjusted its Corporate strategy to be line with the priorities of the Ministry of SOEs, among others by making cost efficiency and optimizing CAPEX and being selective in acquiring new projects that are in line with the Ministry of SOEs related to specialization, accelerating payment of project terms and other bills postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as carrying out business transformation through specialization and development of Waskita’s core competencies to become a market leader in the champion segment and increase the Company’s capabilities.

2021 Projections

The 2021 Company’s projections are contained in the Corporate Work Plan and Budget (RKAP) for 2021 prepared by Board of Directors, then approved by Board of Commissioners, to be subsequently approved by the Shareholders and reported to the Financial Services Authority. The RKAP is the principal reference for the Company in carrying out its business activities.

The main operational and financial performance projections for 2021 are based on various economic assumptions that may affect the Company’s activities. One of the influencing factors is the unstable global economic conditions until the end of 2020, due to the Covid-19 virus pandemic that has hit almost all countries including Indonesia, which resulted in a decline in global economic activities throughout 2020. However, the national economic recovery program as one of the series of activities to reduce the impact of Covid-19 on the economy initiated by the Government in mid-2020, has brought a little breath of fresh air for business players.

In 2021, the Company projects to participate in the auction activities of as many as 224 projects with a total value of Rp85.300 trillion and the target of winning 57 projects with a total value of Rp21.05 trillion. The projected total value of new contracts in 2021 including those of subsidiaries is Rp25.90 trillion. There is a decline in the value of new contracts between realization in 2020 and projection in 2021, because the Company realistically calculates that the Covid-19 pandemic will continue in 2021, hence causing cuts in infrastructure budget and delays in project tenders. In addition, the Company also chooses to be more selective in participating in investment projects and turnkey projects, in order done to maintain overall performance of the Company.

Marketing Projection for 2021

The marketing projection for 2021 is based on the construction services market in Indonesia which is not only influenced by the development of the Government’s strategic programs, but is also closely related to the development of Indonesia’s macro economy and other global issues, especially the impact of Covid-19 on the pace of national development.

In 2020, the Company’s acquisition of New Contract Value will be based on the business development segment. Therefore for 2021, the Company will endeavor very intensively to rely on projects from the Government, with a portion reaching 42.66%. In addition to focusing on the Government segment, the Company also continues to rely on the domestic private segment with a portion of 21.81% and overseas projects with a portion of 8.30%, business development segment with a portion of 18.73%, and SOE/RPE segment with a portion of 8.48%.

Assessment of Performance of Committees under Board of Director

Until the end of 2020, Board of Directors does not have a Committee under the Board. Thus there is no information can be presented regarding the assessment of performance of committees under Board of Directors.

Development of Corporate Governance Implementation

The Company strives to enhance and improve the implementation of GCG principles, not only in line with regulatory demands, but also in accordance with international best practices/standards. For the Company, the implementation of GCG is a must, in order to achieve the best performance in a sustainable manner.

We can convey that the Company always implements a high standard of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) practice which refers to the Decree of Minister of SOE SK-16/S.MBU/2012 dated June 6, 2012 concerning Indicators/Parameters for Assessment and Evaluation of Good Corporate Governance Implementation in State-Owned Enterprises, General Guidelines for Indonesian GCG issued by the National Corporate Governance Committee (KNKG), and international standards according to the ASEAN CG Scorecard framework which is in line with the parameters set by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) ). Several key issues related to GCG implementation are as follows:

GCG Structure and Mechanism

The Company has a strong and effective GCG structure consisting of the main organs, namely the General Meeting of Shareholders (GMS), the Board of Commissioners and the Board of Directors. The three organs of the Company have carried out their respective roles in fulfilling their obligations to shareholders and other stakeholders.

GMS is the Corporate organ that holds the highest power as well as holds all authority that cannot be delegated or assigned to Board of Commissioners and Board of Directors. The GMS as an organ of the Company is a forum for shareholders to make important decisions related to the capital invested in the Company, by taking into account the Articles of Association and the Limited Liability Company Law. In addition, GMS also functions as a forum for accountability of Board of Commissioners and Board of Directors for their performance results in a predetermined period of time.

During 2020, the Company held an annual GMS as mandated by the Shareholders and the Articles of Associations. Board of Commissioners and Board of Directors, have clear powers and responsibilities according to their respective functions as mandated in the Articles of Association and laws and regulations.

In more detail, the guidelines and work rules of Board of Directors are arranged in the Board Manual which regulates the Working Guidelines for Board of Commissioners and Board of Directors, among others, contains work instructions for Board of Directors in a structured, systematic, easy to understand and can be executed consistenly, and can be a reference for Board of Directors in carrying out their respective duties to achieve the Company’s vision and mission. With the Board Manual, it is hoped that high working standard will be achieved, in line with the principles of GCG.

Risk management

The Company’s Risk Management Guidelines which refer to ISO 31000: 2018 standard also describe the relationship between risk management principles, risk management frameworks and risk management processes in an effort to control risk in order to achieve the Company’s vision, mission and objectives/goals.

Optimizing the effectiveness and efficiency of risk management requires strong commitments from all elements of the Company, including from internal and external environments. All elements of the Company have a role in managing risks according to their respective portions, starting from the process of identification, determination of strategy, dissemination, to evaluation of effectiveness. To that end, the Company has established a Risk Management Policy which serves as a principle held firmly in every procedure and mechanism of risk management. These policies include:

  1. Complying with applicable laws and other requirements based on the Principles of Good Corporate Governance, namely Transparency, Accountability, Responsibility, Independency, and Fairness as a step in implementing Risk Policy.
  2. Understanding that risk exists in all forms of business processes and decision making to achieve the Company’s business goals.
  3. Managing all the Company’s risks optimally by utilizing the Company’s resources so that they remain within the limits of the Company’s Risk Tolerance.
  4. Improving a sustainable risk management system by adjusting the current conditions and maintaining a risk awareness culture in order to maintain Corporate value and Stakeholder trust.

Internal Control System

One of the implementations of Good Corporate Governance is to ensure that the Internal Control System (SPI) runs effectively. Given that an effective Internal Control System is able to give stakeholders confidence that all resources owned by the Company are well managed in the pursuit of achieving its goals.

The implementation of Internal Control System is directed at ensuring that the Company has reliable financial reports and information, comply with applicable regulations, as well as efficiency and effectiveness of operational activities.

For this reason, the Company continues to apply an effective internal control system by involving Board of Commissioners, Board of Directors, and all Waskita people by referring to the principles of Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by The Committee of Sponsoring Organization (COSO) of the Treadway Commission.

Code of Conduct

Waskita strives to carry out a business in accordance with GCG principles. To realize it, Waskita already has the Code of Conduct. The Code of Conduct represents a set of guidelines containing the principles governing how Waskita People carry out daily values of the Company. Waskita’s Code of Conduct is built on a strong foundation of corporate vision and values that are upheld in all functions and in all areas of Waskita’s business network.

Waskita Code of Conduct must be obeyed and implemented by all Waskita People, which is marked by the signing of Integrity Pact by all Waskita People as a concrete manifestation of their commitment to implementing the Company’s Code of Conduct.

In order to increase the effectiveness of GCG implementation, the Company’s management is committed to running the Company in a professional manner based on corporate behavior in accordance with the Code of Business Conduct and Corporate Values, in order to realize good corporate governance. Therefore, the Company has also built a Whistleblowing System (WBS).

Whistleblowing System

The Whistleblowing System (WBS) was introduced to strengthen the implementation of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) and in order to provide opportunities for all Company personnel and other Stakeholders to be able to submit reports regarding indications of violations of applicable ethical values, based on accountable evidence and with good intentions.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is one of the main GCG implementations in the Company. The Company is fully aware that the fulfillment of the rights of stakeholders including customers, employees, society and the environment, and the state is a key factor in achieving sustainable performance.

The Company places CSR as part of its long-term program. In an effort to achieve a sustainable business, the Company strives to provide optimal performance for shareholders but also thinks about how to contribute optimally in social and environmental aspects.

The basic principle of social responsibility programs implementation in the Company is based on several approaches, one of which is through the Partnership and Community Development Program (PKBL) or the Small Medium Enterprise Partnership Program & Social Responsibility (SMEPP & SR) which is guided by the Regulation of Minister of State-Owned Enterprises of the Republic Indonesia No. PER-02/MBU/7/2017 concerning the Second Amendment to the Regulation of the Minister of SOEs No. PER-09/MBU/07/2015 on the Partnership and Community Development Program for State-Owned Enterprises. This policy is an embodiment of the Limited Liability Company Law No. 24 of 2007 which requires limited liability companies to implement CSR programs.

In addition, in its application, the Company also carries out CSR programs based on the mandate that has been stated in the legal aspect, including:

  1. Circular Letter of the Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises No. SE-07/MBU/2008 dated May 5, 2008 concerning the Implementation of PKBL and Application of Article 74 of Law No. 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Companies and the latest amendment No. PER-07/MBU/7/2017 dated July 5, 2017 concerning the SOE’s Partnership and Community Development Program.
  2. Circular Letter of the Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises No. SE-14/MBU/2008 dated June 30, 2008 concerning the Optimization of Partnership Program Funds through Distribution Cooperation.
  3. Article 74 of Law no. 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Companies.
  4. Letter from the Ministry of SOE No. S-92/D5/MBU/2013 concerning the Management of Partnership and Community Development Programs.

Meanwhile, the financing and budget of social responsibility are inherent in every relevant operational activity of the Company, such as employee expenses, occupational health and safety, general expenses, customer service expenses and others. In addition, the Company also distributes funds for social responsibility activities in the form of Partnership and Community Development Program (PKBL) or SME & SRPP. The source of funds for PKBL or SME & SRPP activities is regulated by a policy, i.e. coming from the allocation of Company’s profit and expenses with a maximum allocation provision of 4% of the income after tax of previous fiscal year.

The realization of the Partnership Program funds in 2020 amounted to Rp1.60 billion, decreased compared to 2019 of Rp5.99 billion. The realization of the Community Development Program in 2020 was Rp8.77 billion, a decrease compared to 2019 of Rp33.33 billion. This was caused by several matter, i.e. the Corona-19 Virus pandemic which resulted in Fostered Partners having difficulty in making installments because their business was directly affected by this outbreak, and the Company’s liquidity condition was not good enough to provide Environmental Development Program assistance in accordance with the work plan target of SMEPP & SR.
