Development Impact
The modernization of the immigration control system is expected to increase the efficiency of border control processes. The proposed implementation of new technical and IT infrastructure such as automatic border control platforms, queue management solutions, and high-speed systems to read travel documents will reduce the passenger processing time at the border control checkpoints. At the same time, the Project provides advanced risk identification assessment solutions that will help improve immigration safety and security.
The Project is aligned with the World Bank Group’s Country Partnership Framework for Indonesia for FY2021-2025, particularly its objective to improve infrastructure provisions and quality of service. The project also conforms with MIGA’s strategic direction of serving all clients, including middle-income countries that are still home to a large share of the world’s poor.
