TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Minister of Investment and Head of BKPM, Rosan Perkasa Roeslani, announced the realization of Indonesia's investment throughout 2025, amounting to Rp1,931.2 trillion. The investment value mainly came from domestic direct investment (PMDN), amounting to Rp1,030.3 trillion, or contributed 53.4 percent to the total investment in 2025.
Meanwhile, the rest, which is Rp900.9 trillion, came from foreign direct investment (PMA). "Actually, it's not the foreign direct investment that's slowing down, from what I see. It's the domestic one that's faster," said Rosan in Jakarta on Thursday, January 15, 2026.
He also projected that domestic investment growth will increase more and compete with foreign investment this year. According to Rosan, this is due to the involvement of the Investment Management Agency Danantara, which has invested in various sectors, including chemicals and healthcare.
He demonstrated Danantara's involvement in the waste-to-energy project. Construction will begin in March of this year. Rosan stated that, to participate in this project, Danantara requires potential investors to bring in both domestic and foreign investors. "Even though we are the ones driving, we also invite the business world because we want everything to grow together and develop together," he said.
Throughout 2025, foreign direct investment totaled Rp900.9 trillion, accounting for 46.6 percent of the total investment. This amount increased by 0.1 percent annually. Based on countries, Singapore once again became the country of origin for the largest investment in Indonesia. The investment value from Singapore to Indonesia in 2025 reached US$17.4 billion. Hong Kong ranked second with an investment value in Indonesia of US$10.6 billion.
Meanwhile, China ranked third with a US$7.5 billion investment. Followed by Malaysia with US$4.5 billion. After that, Japan had US$3.1 billion.
Based on regions, Rosan revealed that the majority of foreign direct investment in 2025 was in West Java, totaling US$9.2 billion. Then Central Sulawesi with US$ 7.4 billion, Jakarta with US$ 6.0 billion, North Maluku with US$ 5.2 billion, and Banten with US$ 3.6 billion.
Foreign investors mostly invested in five subsectors. The subsector that received the most foreign investment was the basic metal industry, metal goods, non-machine and equipment, with a value of US$14.6 billion or 26.0 percent of the total. Then followed by artistic mining with US$4.7 billion, other services with US$4.5 billion, chemical and pharmaceutical industry worth US$3.8 billion, and transportation, warehousing, and telecommunications amounting to US$3.3 billion.
