Jakarta - The Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming/Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) recorded an investment realisation of Rp498.8 trillion for the first quarter of 2026. Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Head of BKPM Rosan Roeslani stated during a press conference in Jakarta on Thursday that this figure rose 7.2% year-on-year (yoy), compared to last year’s realisation of Rp465.2 trillion.

“The investment realisation for the first quarter of 2026 is recorded at Rp498.8 trillion, with job absorption of 706,569, up 18.9% year-on-year,” said Rosan. Furthermore, he noted that this first-quarter achievement amounts to 24.4% of the annual target set at Rp2,041.3 trillion.

He detailed that of the total investments entering Indonesia, the proportions of domestic investment (PMDN) and foreign investment (PMA) are nearly equal. PMDN accounts for 49.9% of the overall achievement, valued at Rp248.8 trillion (up 6% year-on-year). Meanwhile, PMA’s share is 50.1% at Rp250 trillion.

Minister Rosan also mentioned the top five countries as investment sources: Singapore at approximately US$4.6 billion, Hong Kong (China) at US$2.7 billion, China at US$2.2 billion, the United States at US$1.3 billion, and Japan at US$1 billion.

Additionally, he highlighted the sectors receiving the largest capital injections: basic metal industry, metal goods excluding machinery and equipment (Rp69.4 trillion); other services (Rp64.2 trillion); mining (Rp51.9 trillion); housing, industrial estates, and office areas (Rp48 trillion); and transportation, warehousing, and telecommunications (Rp45.4 trillion).

“As for the regions with PMDN and PMA realisations in the first quarter of 2026, they are Jakarta, West Java, Banten, East Java, and Central Sulawesi,” said Rosan. He expressed hope that this positive trend can be maintained entering the second quarter of 2026, while achieving this year’s national investment target.
