Bekasi Regency (ANTARA) - Bekasi Regency in West Java continues to solidify its position as a center of national economic growth and investment, marked by the setting of an investment target of IDR 73.27 trillion, an increase of IDR 725 billion from the 2025 target.
"This increase reflects the regional government's optimism regarding an increasingly conducive and sustainable business climate," said Acting Bekasi Regent Asep Surya Atmaja in Cikarang on Thursday.
He acknowledged that the increased investment target will be accompanied by strengthening the quality of services to investors through a faster, easier, and more efficient integrated service system.
According to data as of the third quarter of 2025, Bekasi Regency's investment realization has reached IDR 61.78 trillion, with contributions from Foreign Direct Investment (PMA) of IDR 37.90 trillion and Domestic Direct Investment (PMDN) of IDR 23.87 trillion.
This investment has also absorbed more than 55,000 workers, making Bekasi Regency the top-ranked district/city in West Java for investment realization.
As an urban property developer with international-standard facilities, Lippo Cikarang Cosmopolis (LCC), LPCK sees investment growth and employment as strong indicators of the growing need for quality housing and commercial facilities.
LPCK is preparing a variety of comfortable, functional, and internationally standardized residential and commercial products, developed within an integrated and sustainably managed independent city.
These residential and commercial products include 5enses Collection, Cendana Grand Excelsia @ The Patio, Cendana Suites @ The Patio, The Colony, Allegra @ Casa de Lago, TreeTops @ Tanamera Vantage, and The Hive @ Neo Patio.
LPCK Deputy COO Lukas Budi Setiawan expressed optimism regarding investment growth and the prospects for the property industry, which is showing strong and sustainable demand trends.
"LPCK is committed to maintaining consumer trust by completing construction projects on time and ensuring the handover process runs according to schedule," said Lukas.
During the first nine months of last year, LPCK recorded pre-sales of IDR 1.2 trillion, equivalent to 73 percent of the annual target of IDR 1.65 trillion. The company also posted revenue of IDR 3.44 trillion, a significant 251 percent increase compared to the same period the previous year.
This growth was driven by the handover of landed houses, apartments, commercial units, and industrial land, as well as contributions from the non-property segment through the management of the Lippo Cikarang Cosmopolis area.
This positive performance was also reflected in EBITDA of IDR 363 billion with an 11 percent margin, and gross profit of IDR 670 billion with a 19 percent margin, demonstrating the company's success in maintaining operational efficiency and quality growth.
"With the support of an increasingly solid investment climate in Bekasi Regency, along with infrastructure readiness and mature area management, we are optimistic that we can continue to play a role as a driver of regional growth while providing a quality residential and business environment for the community and businesses alike," said Lukas.
