PRESIDENT COMMISSIONS SINGLE WINDOW EXPORT-IMPORT SERVICE

Jakarta, Jan 29 (ANTARA) - President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono officiated at the opening of a single window export-import service system at Jakarta's Tanjung Priok port on Friday to increase the country's bargaining power.

The integrated system called the Indonesia National Single Window provides application and standard information process and exchange facilities electronically.

It covers all processes connected with the flows of export-import goods.

The system makes it possible for data and information to be submitted at once, synchronizes data and information processing and integrates the flow of business processes involving customs, licensing, export-import, port, payment, shipping and logistical systems as well as other systems connected with export-import handling.

Vice President Boediono also attended the ceremony along with several cabinet ministers.
