Rosan Roeslani: First-Half 2026 Investment Realisation Reaches Rp1,010.6 Trillion, Absorbs 1.44 Million Workers
Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Rosan Roeslani has revealed that Indonesia’s investment realisation throughout the first half of 2026 reached Rp1,010.6 trillion, or around 49.5 per cent of the national investment target for 2026, which has been set at Rp2,041.3 trillion.
In a post on his official Facebook account on Thursday (16 July 2026), Rosan said the achievement demonstrated that national investment growth remains positive amid global economic dynamics.
“Indonesia’s investment realisation for the first half of 2026 has reached Rp1,010.6 trillion, or 49.5 per cent of the 2026 investment target of Rp2,041.3 trillion,” Rosan wrote.
According to him, the investment value grew 7.2 per cent year on year. Beyond boosting economic activity, the investment also succeeded in absorbing 1,448,862 workers, an increase of around 15 per cent compared with the same period last year.
Rosan explained that investor confidence in Indonesia remains well maintained. This is reflected in the relatively balanced contribution of investment between domestic investment (PMDN) and foreign investment (PMA).
He also reported the progress to President Prabowo Subianto during a meeting at the Merdeka Palace on Thursday (16 July 2026). In his report, Rosan highlighted the strengthening of investment in the downstreaming sector.
“Investment in the downstreaming sector continues to strengthen and now contributes almost 30 per cent of total national investment realisation. This reflects that downstreaming is increasingly providing added value to the economy and opening up more job opportunities,” he said.
Furthermore, Rosan affirmed that the government will continue to improve the investment climate through regulatory simplification and stronger coordination among ministries and agencies.
“In line with the President’s direction, the government continues to simplify regulations, strengthen synergy across ministries and agencies, and eliminate sectoral egos in order to create an increasingly conducive investment climate,” Rosan said.
The government hopes that the positive trend in investment realisation in the first half can continue, so that the 2026 national investment target can be achieved, while also driving economic growth, job creation, and the acceleration of downstreaming programmes across various strategic sectors.
