Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. Minister of Investment and Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Rosan Roeslani announced the government’s goal of attracting $120 million in investments by 2025, equivalent to approximately Rp 1,900 trillion. 

This target includes both foreign and domestic investments to help drive the country's economic growth.

“Next year, we aim for around $120 million in foreign and local investments,” he said during a gala dinner with foreign ambassadors hosted by the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) in Jakarta on Friday evening (1/11/2024).

Minister Rosan emphasized the critical need to boost investments, particularly in the export-oriented energy sector. Rosan highlighted Indonesia’s renewable energy potential, estimated at around 3,700 gigawatts, sourced from solar, hydro, biomass, and geothermal energy.

“We want to attract more investments, especially in renewable energy that targets exports. Indonesia holds the world's largest geothermal potential, particularly in Java,” he said, as quoted by antaranews.com.

This push for investment is crucial as Indonesia aims to meet its commitment to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2060, underscoring the balance between economic growth and environmental sustainability.
