Indonesia's Q1 2025 Investment Reaches Rp465.2 Trillion, Up 15.9 Per Cent Year-on-Year
JAKARTA — Investment realisation in Indonesia during the first quarter of 2025 reached Rp465.2 trillion, or 24.4 per cent of the full-year target of Rp1,905.6 trillion.
The figures were reported by Investment and Downstream Industries Minister/BKPM Head Rosan Roeslani during a meeting with President Prabowo Subianto at Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, on Wednesday (23/4).
"Investment in the first quarter met the target set by Bappenas. Compared with the previous year, there was a year-on-year increase of 15.9 per cent. Last year's figure was Rp401.5 trillion, so this is a very encouraging number," Rosan said.
Rosan affirmed that the achievement reflects strong investor confidence, both domestic and foreign, in Indonesia's stability and investment climate under President Prabowo's leadership.
Beyond investment value, Rosan highlighted the positive impact on employment, with first-quarter investments creating 594,104 jobs. "Employment generated from the Rp465.2 trillion in investment was 594,104 people, an increase of 8.5 per cent from the previous year," he said.
Rosan also outlined the investment composition: Foreign Direct Investment (PMA) accounted for Rp230.4 trillion (49.5 per cent) and Domestic Direct Investment (PMDN) for Rp234.8 trillion (50.5 per cent).
By region, investment outside Java reached Rp235.9 trillion, slightly exceeding the Rp229.3 trillion invested in Java.
The five largest source countries for investment were Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Malaysia and Japan. Singapore remained the largest contributor, a position it has held for the past decade. "Singapore contributed approximately US$4.6 billion, followed by Hong Kong at around US$2.2 billion, China at US$1.8 billion, then Malaysia at US$1 billion and Japan at US$1 billion," Rosan said.
Regarding the LG investment issue that had attracted attention, Rosan clarified that the project would continue despite a change of partners. "It was decided that this project will proceed but with a different partner," he said.
Rosan also shared positive developments regarding Danantara, noting that the sovereign wealth fund's presence has further boosted global investor confidence. "They see Danantara's presence as very timely. They also want Danantara to be part of many of their consortiums and investments," he explained.
Rosan expressed optimism that the positive trend would continue and deliver tangible benefits for the Indonesian people. "The world's confidence in Indonesia is very strong, as evidenced by investment inflows meeting targets. Incoming investment is also increasing, and God willing, this will bring enormous benefits to our beloved nation and people," he concluded.
