Indonesia's Q1 2025 Investment Reaches Rp 465 Trillion, Up 16 Per Cent Year-on-Year
Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia — The Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming, also known as the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), is optimistic that Indonesia remains a trusted global investment destination. This is evidenced by the increase in investment realisation during the first quarter of 2025, which reached Rp 465 trillion — a 16 per cent rise compared with the same period last year. Indonesia's investment target for 2025 stands at Rp 1,900 trillion.
Deputy Minister of Investment/BKPM Todotua Pasaribu revealed that investment flowing into Indonesia originates from various countries. The largest contributors in recent years have been Singapore and China, which he said proves Indonesia remains a trusted investment destination.
"Year after year, when we monitor it, countries like Singapore and the People's Republic of China always rank first and second in terms of contributions," he told CNBC Indonesia at the Mining Zone Special Dialogue event on Thursday (10 July 2025).
Other major contributing countries include Japan from Asia, followed by European nations and the United States.
"In terms of FDI — foreign direct investment — we also cluster which countries are contributing investment," he explained.
Beyond foreign investment, Todotua noted that Q1 2025 investment realisation was also supported by domestic investment, with Java accounting for 51 per cent of the total.
"Domestic investment is also divided into two clusters — Java and non-Java. The reason is that Java has its own speciality, as approximately 67 per cent of Indonesia's population resides there, and manufacturing and other industries are largely concentrated on the island," he added.
One sector experiencing significant investment growth is the metals industry, followed by the transportation supply chain, telecommunications, and the creative economy in tourism.
"We also look at the sectors in terms of commodity types and industry categories. Over the past two to three years, the metals industry, particularly manufacturing processing, has made quite a significant contribution," he concluded.
