Bappeda selects potential investors for the second phase of TPPAS Lulut Nambo construction

Bandung (ANTARA) - The West Java Regional Development Planning Agency (Bappeda) is still selecting potential investors to start construction of phase two of the Lulut Nambo Regional Waste Disposal and Final Processing Site (TPPAS), Bogor Regency, while waiting for phase one to operate. "In this second phase, West Java Clean Lestari (JBL) is currently selecting investment partners, so that if we get an investment partner, we will then enter (start construction) in phase two," said Head of West Java Bappeda Iendra Sofyan at Gedung Sate Bandung, Tuesday. Regarding the funds needed for the construction of the second phase of the Lulut Nambo Regional TPPAS, Iendra admitted that he could not provide information even though an assessment had been carried out that the funds needed were around IDR 400 billion. "Previously, it might have been that (the value), only now with inflation figures everything has started to change," he said. For phase one itself, Iendra said that currently the equipment has been installed and trials are being carried out with a capacity of 50 tons per day. The experiment is carried out two days a week and each week will increase to three days, five days, until one full week to be fully operational. "If he can carry out the process for one week, it will be declared that the tool will work well. The target is that in the next three weeks the trial will be completed, after that it will operate according to management targets," he said. For phase one, Iendra said the target is to be able to manage waste with a capacity of 100 tons per day, while if all these facilities are completed, it is projected to be able to manage as much as 2,300 tons of waste per day from Bogor City, Bogor Regency, Depok City and South Tangerang City. "For the time being (phase one) we are prioritizing Depok, where the TPA is starting to run out," he said. The Lulut Nambo Regional TPPAS, added Iendra, will use advanced technology which will divide and sort waste into three parts, namely compost, biomass and material waste in the form of RDF (refuse derifed fuel). This RDF waste will be taken by PT Indocement as the offtaker. "So the system is different from Sarimukti, for example, which is landfilled. But it is separated into several parts, some for making fertilizer, up to those that will be purchased by Indocement," he said. The West Java Provincial Government is targeting phase one of the Lulut Nambo Regional Waste Disposal and Final Processing Site (TPPAS) in Klapanunggal District, Bogor Regency, to be operational in March 2024. When completely completed, this TPPAS will have an area of 55 hectares and will be able to accommodate 1,800-2,300 tons of waste per day. (SOURCE)

Affirmate Group Invests in BOT Finance, Bumiputera Identity Officially Removed

KONTAN.CO.ID – Affirmate Group, a business consulting and investment services firm in Indonesia, has expanded its investment portfolio into the financial services sector. In early March, the advisory arm of PT Affirmate Bisnis Nusantara (ABN) finalized its investment in PT BOT Finance Indonesia. The transaction was completed after obtaining approval from the Financial Services Authority (OJK) at the end of January 2026. Through this investment, Affirmate Bisnis Nusantara now holds a 5.6% stake in BOT Finance. The majority stake remains owned by MUFG Finance and Leasing Co Ltd (85%), followed by Yayasan Pendidikan Keluarga Wiryoprawiro (9.4%). This investment reflects ABN’s strong commitment and strategic initiative to build a sustainable business collaboration platform between Indonesia and Japan. Going forward, the investment is expected to further strengthen bilateral cooperation in the financial services sector, support corporate growth, and expand cross-border investment opportunities. “This investment is expected to drive business growth and enhance positive performance amid increasingly challenging conditions,” said Yukifri Nazir, CEO of Affirmate Bisnis Nusantara, in an official statement on Monday (March 2). By way of overview, BOT Finance offers a wide range of services, including investment financing, working capital financing, multipurpose financing, and operating leases. In 2025, BOT Finance’s asset portfolio consisted of vehicle financing (43%), heavy equipment (35%), and machinery (22%). According to its 2024 sustainability report, BOT Finance disbursed Rp 1.03 trillion in new financing. BOT Finance is considered one of the oldest Japanese leasing companies in Indonesia. Established in 1982 under the name Bumiputera-BOT Finance, it was a joint venture between insurance company AJB Bumiputera 1912 and BOT Lease (which changed its name to MUFG Finance and Leasing Co Ltd in October 2025). In 2024, its shareholder composition was AJB Bumiputera (30%), BOT Lease (MUFG FL) (60%), and Yayasan Pendidikan Keluarga Wiryoprawiro (10%). However, in July 2024, OJK approved the removal of the “Bumiputera” name, allowing the company to operate under the name BOT Finance. Following Affirmate’s entry as a minority shareholder, in February 2026 Bumiputera divested its entire stake by selling all its shares to MUFG Finance and Leasing Co Ltd. Meanwhile, Affirmate Group, established in 2019, has built its track record through partnerships with business leaders, corporations, and financial institutions from Indonesia and Japan. ABN supports cross-border business growth and investment between the two countries, serving more than 50 corporate clients. One of Affirmate’s milestones was acting as business advisor to PT Solusi Sinergi Digital Tbk (WIFI), where it played a role in introducing NTT East as a strategic investor. NTT East entered in the second half of 2025 with an investment commitment of Rp 4 trillion. [Source]
