Singapore remains Indonesia's largest foreign investor, with investment realisation in the first quarter of 2025 reaching approximately US$4.6 billion or around Rp77.6 trillion.
Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Rosan Perkasa Roeslani stated that Singapore has been Indonesia's largest investor for the past ten years.
In second place, the largest foreign investment flowing into Indonesia came from Hong Kong, with a realisation of US$2.2 billion or approximately Rp37.1 trillion.
"Next is China with a realisation of US$1.8 billion or around Rp30.4 trillion, Malaysia at US$1 billion or approximately Rp16.9 trillion, and Japan at US$1 billion," Rosan said during a press conference announcing Q1 2025 investment realisation at the Presidential Office, Presidential Palace, Jakarta, on Wednesday, 23 April 2025.
Rosan also detailed that total investment realisation in Q1 2025, comprising both foreign direct investment (FDI) and domestic direct investment (DDI), reached Rp465.2 trillion. Of this amount, foreign direct investment accounted for Rp230.4 trillion or 49.5 per cent of total Q1 2025 investment realisation, whilst domestic direct investment reached Rp234.8 trillion or 50.5 per cent.
Among domestic investments, the largest share came from the Jakarta region, accounting for 15 per cent of total DDI in Q1 2025 or Rp69.8 trillion. This was followed by West Java at Rp68.5 trillion (14.7 per cent), East Java at Rp36 trillion (7.8 per cent), Central Sulawesi at Rp32.7 trillion (7 per cent), and Banten at Rp31 trillion (6.7 per cent).
These regions invested in sectors including basic metals, metal goods, and smelters at approximately 14.5 per cent; transportation, warehousing, and telecommunications at around 14.3 per cent; mining at 10.4 per cent; other services at 8.8 per cent; and industrial estates and office buildings at 8.1 per cent or Rp37.5 trillion.
Rosan assessed that Q1 2025 investment realisation was satisfactory, as it aligned with targets set by the National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas) for the Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming.
According to Rosan, the investment realisation over the past three months demonstrated investor confidence in Indonesia and in the leadership of President Prabowo Subianto.
"These are very encouraging figures. They also demonstrate the confidence of both the international community and domestic investors in investing in Indonesia, which remains well-maintained. As we all know, investment is a long-term commitment," he said.
