In a strategic effort to strengthen economic diplomacy and attract more foreign direct investment (FDI), Indonesia’s Minister of Investment and Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), Rosan Perkasa Roeslani, met with John Goyer, Vice President for Southeast Asia and Oceania at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce (USCC), during his official visit to Washington D.C. on May 13, 2025. Their discussion focused on deepening bilateral cooperation in key sectors such as clean energy transition, digital transformation, trade, and supply chain resilience.
Rosan highlighted that the U.S. consistently ranks among Indonesia’s top ten FDI sources, contributing USD 3.7 billion in 2024—an increase of 12.6% from the previous year—securing its position as the fifth-largest investor in the country. This growth reflects international confidence in Indonesia’s economic stability and reform momentum. He reaffirmed the government’s commitment to fostering a pro-investment climate and building mutually beneficial international partnerships. Emphasizing Indonesia’s role as a reliable strategic partner, Rosan underlined that these collaborative efforts are aligned with the country’s broader goals of industrial downstreaming and sustainable economic transformation. The meeting marks another milestone in Indonesia’s proactive approach to securing long-term, high-quality investments.
