Commitment Remains the Same, Still High
Jakarta (ANTARA) - Investment and Downstream Industries Minister/Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Rosan Roeslani stated that foreign direct investment (FDI) in Indonesia remains high, despite the widening conflict between Iran and Israel.
"The way I see it, the appetite of our investors remains the same, still high. If we look at the nature of our investors, especially FDI, it is concentrated more in Asian countries," said Rosan when met in Jakarta on Tuesday.
He noted that foreign investment flowing into Indonesia predominantly originates from Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Malaysia, Japan and South Korea, and that these countries continue to express strong commitment.
"So the commitment remains the same, still high," he reiterated.
Therefore, Rosan said, the escalation in the Middle East has not yet had a significant impact on Indonesia.
"Looking at the past six months, things have been very, very good. Very, very positive. For us, there appears to be no major impact — everything is fine and running well," he said.
On platform X, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that there is no ceasefire agreement between Iran and Israel. If the Israeli regime halts its illegal aggression against the Iranian people by 4am Tehran time, Araghchi said, his side has no intention of continuing its response.
Recently, Iran also launched a series of missiles at the US military base Al Udeid in Qatar. The number of missiles fired in the attack was equal to "the number of bombs used by the US when attacking our nuclear facilities," according to Iran's Supreme National Security Council.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which claimed responsibility for the attack, described it as a direct message to Washington and its allies.
