In the first half of 2025, Indonesia achieved a total investment realization of approximately IDR 942.9 trillion—a year-on-year increase of 13.6%—which accounted for nearly half of the annual target of IDR 1,905.6 trillion. Domestic investment led the way, contributing 54.1%, while foreign investment made up 45.9%. Notably, investments directed to regions outside Java totaled IDR 476 trillion (50.5%), slightly surpassing the amount allocated to Java at IDR 466.9 trillion (49.5%). Central Sulawesi stood out as the top-performing province outside Java, attracting IDR 64.2 trillion in capital and ranking second in foreign direct investment with USD 3.7 billion.
Sector-wise, the basic metals and related industries led with IDR 134.4 trillion in investment, followed closely by transportation, warehousing, and telecommunications at IDR 110.7 trillion, and the mining sector at IDR 102.2 trillion. These figures reflect not only an overall uptick in investment but also a tangible shift toward geographic decentralization and a broader distribution of economic activity across Indonesia. A far more balanced investment landscape appears to be emerging, with provinces beyond Java drawing increasing investor attention.
