Abstract

Despite nearly two decades since the enactment of Law No. 9 of 2006, Indonesia's Warehouse Receipt System (WRS / Sistem Resi Gudang—SRG) has yet to reach anywhere close to its potential. According to Bappebti, (2026), cumulative WRS value stands at IDR 8.57 trillion, with financing reaching IDR 5.32 trillion—numbers that appear strikingly small against a national agricultural commodity sector whose GDP contribution reached IDR 1,626.42 trillion in 2025. This paper argues that the infrastructure dimension is the primary, and largely neglected, root cause of that underperformance. Drawing on 5 Whys causal analysis, USG problem prioritization, (Bardach & Patashnik, 2019) feasibility criteria, and cross-validation against Dunn, (2017)’s six normative criteria, the author identifies the absence of an integrated national infrastructure masterplan—one grounded in commodity cluster logic and value chain thinking—as the deepest systemic constraint. Four policy alternatives were put to a panel of five domain experts; the analysis supports a combination strategy led by commodity cluster-based infrastructure development, complemented by existing warehouse revitalization, ISWARE digital modernization, and selective Government–Private Partnership (KPBU) deployment at strategic nodes. These recommendations are directed to the Minister of Trade and the Head of Bappebti for phased implementation between 2026 and 2030, framed within the 2025–2029 National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN).
