I hope it will increase again this year, we will look for markets in other countries," said Bey when met after inspecting rattan production at the Cirebon Rattan Industry Development Service Unit, Tegalwangi Village, Wednesday (3/1/2024) . Bey said that apart from looking for new markets, rattan products would be further developed. "This must be further developed in the future because this is one of our superior products, so there must be more product diversification," he said.

West Java Offers Green Energy and Kertajati Projects to Malaysian Investors

The West Java Provincial Government is stepping up its efforts to attract foreign investment by presenting a portfolio of high-value strategic projects to Malaysian investors. Through the Selangor International Business Summit (SIBS) 2026, the provincial administration will showcase a range of flagship projects across key sectors, including renewable energy, industrial estates, technology, healthcare, and infrastructure. This initiative forms part of West Java’s strategy to maintain its position as one of Indonesia’s leading investment destinations while strengthening economic ties with Malaysia, which has consistently ranked among the province’s largest foreign investors. According to the West Java Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Agency (DPMPTSP), Malaysian investment in the province reached IDR 25.7 trillion in 2025. The investment was realized through 1,197 projects and generated nearly 3,000 jobs. Over the past three years, cumulative Malaysian investment in West Java has reached approximately IDR 44 trillion. Siti Nurhuda, Coordinator of the Investment Promotion and Downstream Development Team at DPMPTSP West Java, stated that SIBS 2026, scheduled to take place on 9–10 July 2026 in Bandung, will serve as a strategic platform for connecting investors with investment-ready projects prepared by local governments. “A number of projects are ready to be offered across various strategic sectors, ranging from renewable energy, industrial estates, technology, healthcare, and creative industries to infrastructure,” Siti said in a statement released on Tuesday (16 June 2026). One of the province’s key investment priorities is the green energy sector. West Java plans to promote the development of floating solar power plants at the Sadawarna, Cipanas, Darma, and Kuningan reservoirs. In addition, waste-to-energy projects in the Greater Cirebon area and Subang Regency have been identified as priority investment opportunities. In the industrial sector, the government is preparing several projects considered highly attractive to international investors. These include the Kertajati Aerospace Park, envisioned as a future aerospace industry hub; the Kertajati Logistic Hub of Indonesia; Subang Smartpolitan; Losarang Industrial Estate; and Taifa Industrial Park. Meanwhile, healthcare has also emerged as a major focus area. West Java is promoting the development of medical tourism destinations and integrated healthcare service centers, sectors that are expected to benefit from growing demand for modern, high-quality healthcare services. Beyond business forums and networking sessions, SIBS 2026 organizers will arrange site visits to selected project locations. The initiative is designed to provide prospective investors with first-hand insights into land readiness, infrastructure support, and the long-term development potential of each project. The investment drive comes as West Java continues to record strong investment performance. During the first quarter of 2026, the province attracted IDR 76.78 trillion in investment, representing approximately 24 percent of its annual target of IDR 314 trillion. This achievement places West Java among Indonesia’s largest contributors to national investment realization. By promoting these strategic projects on an international stage, the West Java Provincial Government aims not only to increase foreign capital inflows but also to accelerate industrial downstream development, enhance regional competitiveness, and create new employment opportunities. Through its participation in SIBS 2026, the provincial government hopes to expand international partnerships while attracting fresh investment that can generate jobs, strengthen industrial value-added activities, and support sustainable regional economic growth.

IDR 14 Trillion Investment Liquid, This Toll Road in West Java Will Start Construction in 2025, Cuts Travel Time to 3 Cities by 2 Hours

LENGKONG, AYOBANDUNG.COM - President Prabowo Subianto has again instructed the construction of the newest toll road in West Java. The infrastructure development which is included in the seven priority toll road projects is a National Strategic Project. The Ministry of Public Development in coordination with the Toll Road Supervisory Agency (BPJT) will immediately realize the construction of this toll road in West Java in 2025. For information, West Java is one of the provinces that is the main target of the government's long-term development. Considering that the province is 35,377.76 square kilometers with a population of 50,489,208, it requires accelerated development of infrastructure and facilities that continue to develop. The 45-kilometer toll road is one of the mega projects that supports smooth connectivity for residents. The construction of the Sukabumi-Ciranjang-Padalarang toll road is one of the work programs of the PU Ministry which will be realized until the target completion in 2029. The toll road with an investment value of Rp14 trillion is the government's effort to improve transportation infrastructure. The construction of the Sukabumi-Ciranjang-Padalarang Toll Road will use the Government and Business Entity Cooperation (KBPU) scheme. The construction of this toll road consists of two stages: 1. The first stage of construction of the Sukabumi to Ciranjang route is 21 kilometers long. 2. The second stage of construction of the Ciranjang to Padalarang route is 25 kilometers long. Until now, the land acquisition process continues as an initial step in the construction of this toll road. Some of the objectives of the Sukabumi-Ciranjang-Padalarang Toll Road are as follows: 1. Reducing congestion This toll road will be an alternative for road users with high mobility so that they can avoid congestion that often occurs in the Bandung, Sukabumi, and Cianjur areas. 2. Facilitating the distribution of goods In the field of trade, the operation of the Sukabumi-Ciranjang-Padalarang toll road can facilitate the flow of distribution of goods being traded. 3. Improving the local economy If this toll road can be used efficiently, then the economic activities of the community will be smoother and have an impact on improving the local economy. 4. Facilitate mobility If the distance between cities is quite far and takes a lot of time, then the use of this toll road can be very effective. It is estimated that road users can cut the travel time from Sukabumi to Padalarang which is usually 2 hours 28 minutes to only 30 minutes. 5. Increase tourism potential If people's mobility is smoother, then traveling if you want to travel in Sukabumi or Ciranjang and Padalarang will be more affordable and easier. This will certainly have an impact on increasing tourism potential in the area.*** (SOURCE)

Of course we hope that we will continue to maintain this investment, especially not to be exclusive, but inclusive investment, which has a direct impact on reducing unemployment, poverty," he said. According to Herman, one of the strategic steps of the West Java Provincial Government to realize this is by downstreaming investment in West Java. "One of the strategies in this investment is to downstream strategic investment, one of which is in the oil and gas sector," Herman said. Herman also said that the downstream investment strategy had been implemented long ago by the Central Government. The West Java Provincial Government itself will follow these steps and is committed to being a leading province that carries out downstreaming. "The end is how the people of West Java prosper. Because planting is actually only a target, the main goal is to make our country strong, to make West Java strong, advanced, and prosperous," he said. Meanwhile, Expert Staff for Macroeconomics of the Ministry of Investment / BKPM Imam Soejoedi explained the importance of downstream investment. "Thank you Mr. Sekda. It's amazing the directions, the inputs that are down to earth. Earlier Pak Sekda had conveyed the importance of downstreaming, not only sustainable investment but investment that can generate economic growth to the lower levels," said Imam. (SOURCE)

Indonet Expands Underground Fiber Network, Targets Karawang Industrial Area

PT Indointernet Tbk. (Indonet) has launched the third route of its underground fiber optic network to strengthen connectivity reliability for industrial facilities and data centers across the Bekasi–Karawang corridor. With the addition of the third route, the total length of Indonet's underground fiber optic network has increased by approximately 141% compared with its pre-2024 network infrastructure. Indonet Operations Director Agus Ariyanto said the additional fiber optic infrastructure enhances the performance and resilience of the company's existing transmission system. Ensuring high service availability remains a key priority in supporting today's increasingly hybrid business operations. "Both underground fiber routes that have been operational since 2025 have maintained 100% Ready for Service (RFS), indicating that there have been no fiber cable disruptions or outages to date," Agus told Bisnis on Wednesday (July 8, 2026). According to Agus, the network expansion broadens Indonet's coverage while improving overall service reliability. For business-to-business (B2B) customers, the expanded and more resilient network enables the company to deliver more dependable connectivity to support growing business demands, particularly in industrial estates, data centers, and enterprise operations. Installing the entire fiber optic infrastructure underground is a core component of Indonet's strategy to minimize the risk of physical damage. The approach has proven effective in maintaining stable data transmission since the initial network corridor was introduced. Agus added that implementing route diversity through three separate fiber routes with adequate physical separation allows data traffic to be automatically rerouted if one route experiences a disruption. All fiber optic cables are buried at depths ranging from 1.5 to 2 meters and are monitored through routine patrols conducted by the company's operational teams. In addition to improving physical network resilience, Indonet has designed its infrastructure with substantial capacity to accommodate future growth in digital demand. The company has upgraded its backbone network capacity to 100 Gbps, enabling higher bandwidth to support data-intensive business applications in the Karawang Mitra Industrial Estate (Kawasan Industri Mitra Karawang/KIM). The company believes significant opportunities remain for digital infrastructure expansion as Indonesia continues to accelerate technology transformation, cloud adoption, and artificial intelligence implementation. "The deployment of 2 × 576-core fiber is part of Indonet's long-term strategy to anticipate the growing demand for connectivity across industrial estates and data center clusters," Agus said.
