Minister Rosan to Coordinate Suspension of BDX Data Centre Project

The central government, through the Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Head of BKPM, Rosan Roeslani, plans to communicate with the West Java Provincial Government regarding the temporary suspension of the BDX data centre project in Jatiluhur, as reported by RRI on Wednesday (30/09/2026).

Rosan admitted that he has not yet received comprehensive information regarding the suspension of the artificial intelligence-based data centre project. Consequently, coordination steps with the West Java Provincial Government will be undertaken immediately to discuss the licensing issues that triggered the delay.

“Yes, I have just returned. I will speak with them later,” said Rosan, Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Head of BKPM.

The suspension of operations for the project, which represents an investment value of approximately Rp3.5 trillion, was implemented because several key legality documents have not been finalised. The developer’s outstanding permits include the Environmental Impact Assessment (AMDAL) and the Building Approval (PBG).

Construction work on the BDX AI Data Centre was originally scheduled to commence on 22 September 2026. However, on-site work was forced to stop abruptly after the Governor of West Java, Dedi Mulyadi, conducted a direct inspection of the construction site.
