Over a dozen unfinished columns of reinforced concrete stood erect at the steam-powered power plant (PLTU) 2 project site in Tanjung Gundul, West Kalimantan last week. There was no sign of construction activity at the 45-hectare complex. Some of the steel from the unfinished support columns was rusty. Weeds were growing around its uninhabited buildings.
