Kasuba denoted South Halmahera Regency as a region he wanted to develop as the province's tourism hub.[2] In 2017, he inaugurated the Widi International Fishing Tournament as one of those ways.[3]

After visiting representatives of the Jinchun Group in Guangzhou, Kasuba successfully negotiated for the group to build a nickel smelter on Obira in the Obi Islands.[4]
