        "content": "<p>Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia \u2014 The Indonesia Mining Institute (IMI)\nrecorded Rp480 trillion in downstream-processing investment in Indonesia\nfrom January to September 2026. This is evidence that downstream\nprocessing has become a key driver of investment in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Indonesia Mining Institute Chairman Irwandy Arif said the\ndownstream-processing programme had successfully become a major driver\nof national investment. He said the mineral sector made the largest\ncontribution to the investment total.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDownstream processing has become a driver of national investment so\nfar. That is a positive development. From January to September 2026,\ndownstream-processing investment had reached Rp480 trillion,\u201d Irwandy\nsaid at the Coffee Morning \u2014 Special: Two Years of Prabowo event, themed\n\u201cTwo Years of Prabowo: Downstream Processing Advances, Mining Industry\nGrows Stronger?\u201d, as quoted on Friday (30 October 2026).<\/p>\n<p>The mineral sector accounted for the largest share of\ndownstream-processing investment, at Rp335 trillion. The figure was also\nsupported by the inauguration of 19 downstream-processing projects by\nthe Daya Anagata Nusantara Investment Management Agency (BPI Danantara),\nas well as 11 private-sector projects, with a combined investment value\nof around Rp180 trillion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe mineral sector was the largest contributor, at Rp335 trillion.\nDanantara launched 19 downstream-processing projects, alongside 11\nprivate-sector projects in the downstream sector, worth approximately\nRp180 trillion, which have been inaugurated,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>The impact of downstream-processing investment is also reflected in a\nroughly 17% increase in the value of Indonesia\u2019s nickel exports. Export\nvalue rose despite a fall in volume resulting from quota\nrestrictions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe value of our nickel exports rose by around 17%, even though\nvolumes fell because of quota restrictions,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>",
