Subang Investment in 2025 Soars to Rp18.2 Trillion, the Highest in West Java

Jan, 29 2026

SUBANG, RBO — Subang Regency recorded impressive investment realization throughout 2025.

The Subang Regency Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Agency (DPMPTSP) reported that investment realization in the Rebana area reached IDR 18.2 trillion, the highest in West Java.

This achievement confirms Subang's position as a region increasingly attracting investors, thanks to the rapid development of industrial areas and the support of strategic infrastructure access.

The Head of the Subang Regency DPMPTSP, Dikdik Solihin, revealed that the investment trend in Subang showed significant growth compared to previous years.

"Thank God, the investment realization value in Subang Regency is showing an increasingly positive trend. Based on DPMPTSP data, investment realization reached IDR 18.2 trillion throughout 2025," Dikdik told RBO on Tuesday (January 27, 2026).

According to him, the largest investment sector is still concentrated in industrial areas, particularly the Smart Metropolitan Industrial Estate, which covers 2,750 hectares, and the 175-hectare VinFast Industrial Park.

Dikdik added that this achievement far exceeds the target set by the West Java Provincial Government.

In 2025, Subang was targeted to realize an investment of IDR 10 trillion, but the realization was almost double.

"The target from West Java Province was IDR 10 trillion. Thank God, the realization actually exceeded that target," he said.

Seeing this positive trend, Dikdik is optimistic that investment realization in Subang Regency will increase again in 2026.

He believes that investment growth is inseparable from various strategic regional government programs that are well-targeted and have a direct impact on the community.

This includes the Subang Regency Government's commitment to simplifying and accelerating the licensing process, while providing legal certainty and convenience for investors.

"In accordance with the leadership's instructions, the Subang Regency Government remains committed to creating a conducive, fast, and transparent investment climate," he concluded.

Jababeka (KIJA) Eyes Japanese Investment Through Mitsui Project and Cultural Festival

PT Graha Buana Cikarang, a subsidiary of PT Jababeka Tbk. (KIJA), is strengthening the appeal of Jababeka City as a preferred destination for Japanese investors. While Chinese manufacturing investment continues to dominate the industrial estate, Jababeka is implementing various strategies to expand partnerships with Japanese businesses. These initiatives range from joint property developments to fostering a stronger business ecosystem through the organization of Sakura Matsuri 2026. PT Graha Buana Cikarang Director Ivonne Anggraini said the company remains open to new collaborations with Japanese developers and investors. According to her, Jababeka has already established strong partnerships with Japanese companies through several projects, including a residential development in collaboration with Mitsui. "We have been working with Japanese investors. For our residential development, we are partnering with Mitsui," she said on Tuesday (July 14, 2026). She added that Jababeka also aims to broaden its network with Japanese companies through Sakura Matsuri 2026. "We certainly hope to establish new partnerships with Japanese investors. That is why we are organizing Sakura Matsuri—to expand our outreach to the Japanese community, including company CEOs, so they can become more familiar with Jababeka," she said. However, Ivonne acknowledged that Chinese investors currently remain the most active foreign investors in the Jababeka Industrial Estate. "At the moment, China still dominates," she noted. To further enhance the estate's attractiveness, Jababeka is not relying solely on industrial expansion. The company is also developing a supportive ecosystem that accommodates the needs of the international community. As part of its strategy to strengthen Indonesia–Japan relations, Jababeka, in collaboration with KAJI, will once again host Sakura Matsuri 2026 on July 25–26, 2026, at Hollywood Junction, Jababeka City. The annual festival is expected to generate long-term benefits for the investment climate. By strengthening Jababeka City's reputation as a welcoming destination for international communities—particularly the Japanese community—the company hopes to enhance the area's image among businesses and investors. More than just an entertainment event, the annual cultural festival forms part of Jababeka's broader effort to build an industrial city ecosystem that is attractive and welcoming to international communities, especially those from Japan. Ivonne noted that Jababeka City is currently home to more than 2,000 national and multinational companies, with the Japanese community representing one of its largest international business communities. The presence of the Japanese community has contributed not only to economic and industrial growth but also to the enrichment of the region's social and cultural life. She added that Sakura Matsuri reflects Jababeka's commitment to developing an integrated township that extends beyond industrial activities by promoting education, tourism, cultural exchange, and human capital development. This year's festival will feature a wide range of Japanese cultural performances, cosplay competitions, an Indonesia–Japan culinary bazaar, the Miss Sakura competition, workshops, education and career talk shows, as well as opportunities to obtain Japanese language scholarships. The event will also feature performances by JKT48 alongside Japanese artists, including RyuBand, Koki Ota, Shun, and Hiro Umeda, as well as various Japanese cultural communities. [SOURCE]

Head of West Java DPMPTSP said the presence of MPP would increase regional investment

berita.depok.go.id - Head of the One Stop Integrated Service Investment Service (DPMPTSP) of West Java Province (Jabar) Nining Yuliastiani said that the presence of a Public Service Mall (MPP) in Depok City would increase investment. According to him, Depok City can be used as an investment destination, especially since its position is close to DKI Jakarta. He said, the presence of MPP could have a significant impact on creating services that are more easily accessible to the public. MPP can stimulate the community's economy and revive the surge of city development, with the ultimate goal of building progress for the community. "Easy and fast service is the key and essence of developing Public Service Malls. This can be realized by service providers in government agencies, through MPP which is a combination of services from central agencies and regional governments, as well as BUMN/BUMD," he said to Berita.depok. go.id, after attending the soft launching of the Depok City MPP at Depok City Hall, Friday (29/12/23). He said that the potential in Depok City itself is occupied by the Trade and Services sector in the form of housing, industrial areas and offices. "Based on our data, in the third quarter of 2023, the investment value in Depok City will have reached 70 percent from IDR 4.31 trillion, to IDR 2.98 trillion. "We are optimistic that we can achieve the target while it is still being calculated, of course," he added. "Depok is an urban city. This position has great potential. Moreover, Depok is adjacent to the Jakarta Special Region (DKJ)," he said. "So you really have to be able to compete to get investors to come to Depok. Because it is also supported by good transportation, human resources (HR) and infrastructure," he concluded. (JD03/ED 02) (SOURCE)

Bandung's Tourism Rebounds, Farhan Optimistic Economic Growth Will Surpass 5%

Bisnis.com, BANDUNG— Bandung Mayor Muhammad Farhan is optimistic that the city's Economic Growth Rate (LPE) can stabilize above 5%, referring to several macro indicators. One factor that strengthens Farhan's optimism is the performance of the tourism sector, which is considered to be improving. Previously, Farhan acknowledged that Bandung's tourism sector faced two major blows throughout the previous year. These impacts included budget efficiency policies at the beginning of the year and a drastic decline in visits during the Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr periods. Furthermore, security disturbances at the end of August also negatively impacted tourism performance, particularly in September. Nevertheless, Farhan emphasized that his office has seen a recovery trend in the past three months. This indication of recovery is reinforced by increased economic activity, occupancy rates, and the presence of various events in Bandung. Although official tourist visit data is still being finalized, this positive trend is already reflected in macroeconomic performance. Bandung's economic growth rate was recorded at 4.99% in the first quarter, then increased to 5.43% in the second quarter. This figure then stabilized at 5.26% in the third quarter, demonstrating the resilience of the local economy. Farhan stated that this positive achievement must be maintained to strengthen the city's economic foundation. "This serves as initial capital, a kind of springboard, to drive stronger economic growth going forward," he said at Bandung City Hall. Therefore, his office will continue to strengthen leading sectors as the main drivers of the economy. These include tourism, culture, sports, and creative events, which are the main priorities for driving this growth. [SOURCE]
