Often referred to as the "Nine Steps to Build Special West Java," these initiatives touch on everything from infrastructure to education and healthcare.
Connecting Communities, Building Futures: Infrastructure and Economic Growth
Dedi Mulyadi and Erwan Setiawan prioritize comprehensive development that encompasses remote villages and urban centers alike. Their vision includes developing both traditional and digital infrastructure:
- Road Connectivity: Improving accessibility to isolated areas by expanding road infrastructure, making remote communities more connected to urban centers and opportunities.
-
Agricultural Enhancement: Fostering a thriving agricultural sector through the development of efficient irrigation systems and promoting the growth of eco-friendly agricultural practices. The pair aims to build sustainable agricultural ecosystems connected through forestry, plantations, livestock, and fisheries, furthering West Java’s vital agricultural industry.
- Economic Diversification: Promoting job creation by attracting new investments, focusing on regional development with strategic industrial planning, expanding tourism development, fostering a thriving creative economy, and nurturing smart city initiatives.

They plan to enhance Regency/City Regional General Hospitals by adding specialized services like Maternal and Child Health, Cardiology, Dialysis, Oncology, advanced Stroke Treatment with neurosurgical capabilities and surgical services, and other vital medical services.

The pair’s final three initiatives reinforce their commitment to grassroots involvement and sustainable development:

Promoting independent waste management systems that start at the village (RT) level.
This includes actively improving coastal development through the organization of fishing villages, the establishment of well-maintained fish auction sites, and the modernization of fishing boat landing ports .
