Rebana Investment Soars 57 Percent, Becoming a New Economic Magnet for West Java

Bandung (ANTARA) - The Rebana Metropolitan area has reaffirmed its position as a new investment prime location in West Java after recording a surge in investment realisation of 57.67 percent throughout 2025, with a value reaching Rp33.67 trillion.

This impressive achievement places the northern corridor of West Java (Subang, Indramayu, Cirebon, Majalengka, Kuningan, Sumedang) as a new engine for economic growth, contributing 11.3 percent to the total national investment through West Java.

“Rebana is the most strategic area. It is integrated with the Cisumdawu Toll Road, the Cipali Toll Road, access to the Patimban Port, and support from Kertajati Airport. Hopefully, many will build industries there,” said Dedi Mulyadi at the Gedung Sate Bandung, Thursday.

Dedi believes that the integration of world-class infrastructure in the Rebana area is now the main attraction for global investors to invest their capital.

In line with him, the Chairman of the Implementing Body of the Rebana Management Agency (BP), Helmy Yahya, revealed that the appeal of this area has attracted investors from various countries. Hong Kong leads with investment commitments of Rp8.97 trillion, followed by Vietnam (Rp2.96 trillion), South Korea (Rp1.46 trillion), China (Rp1.41 trillion), and Singapore (Rp1.22 trillion).

“I ask for the support of the people of West Java because this is a big task. Our potential is extraordinary, but unemployment and poverty are still high. Hopefully, the Rebana project can absorb labor and improve the economy,” said Helmy after signing an agreement with an investor from Zhejiang, China.

Macro data shows that the impact of development in this area is starting to be felt. In the third quarter of 2025, economic growth in the Rebana area was recorded at 5.53 percent, a figure that is above the average economic growth of West Java and the national average.

It is informed that the West Java Provincial Government (Pemprov) targets that by 2030, this area will be able to trigger economic growth of up to 7.44 percent and create jobs for at least 1.78 million people.

In 2026, the West Java Provincial Government will focus its policies on accelerating investment and accelerating supporting infrastructure to ensure that Rebana becomes the main pillar for Indonesia’s economic leap in the future.
