This is reflected in the signing of economic cooperation\nagreements worth USD 23.1 billion at the Indonesia-Japan Business Forum\nin Tokyo on Monday (30\/3).<\/p>\n<p>Rosan said that several new investment commitments from the Japanese\ngovernment and businesses demonstrate a high level of confidence in\nIndonesia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite the geopolitical issues in the world, international\nconfidence, particularly from Japan, remains strong, and they are\ncommitted to carrying out investments in Indonesia going forward,\u201d Rosan\nexplained, in a press release from the Indonesian Government\u2019s\nCommunication Agency (Bakom) RI.<\/p>\n<p>He added that these commitments also affirm Japan\u2019s position as one\nof the five countries with the largest contributions to the realisation\nof Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Indonesia. Based on data from the\nMinistry of Investment and Downstreaming, Japanese FDI realisation was\nrecorded at USD 3.1 billion throughout 2023, making it the fifth-largest\nFDI contributor in Indonesia last year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo this proves that international confidence, in this case from\nJapan, both from the Japanese government and Japanese businesses, in\nIndonesia remains strong,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Rosan detailed the USD 23.1 billion economic\ncooperation. According to him, the majority of the investment value,\nnamely USD 20.9 billion, comes from the cooperation between PT Pertamina\n(Persero) and the Japanese oil and gas company INPEX in the development\nof the Abadi Gas Field in the Masela Block.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, there are several other investment agreements, including\ncooperation between SMBC Aviation Capital and Danantara worth around USD\n800 million.
