PORTALJABAR, BANDUNG CITY - Investment in parts of South West Java is still relatively small, even though the potential is quite large. This was expressed by the Head of the West Java Investment and Integrated One-Stop Service Office (DPMPTSP) Nining Yulistiani, when opening the West Java PMPTSP OPD Forum in Bandung City, Tuesday (2/18/2025). According to Nining, regencies/cities that have relatively small investment volumes include Pangandaran Regency, Sukabumi City, Banjar City and Tasikmalaya Regency and Ciamis Regency. "It's not because this area doesn't have the potential for investment, but it has not been optimized, such as in the maritime, plantation and agricultural sectors. The potential is quite large, especially for downstream programs," said Nining. Therefore, through the PMPTSP OPD Forum, Nining hopes that a formula for accelerating investment in West Java in the future, especially in the South West Java area, will be formulated. "This meeting is expected to synchronize work programs in the investment sector. Given the target of achieving national economic growth until 2029 of 8 percent. Investment is a very important component to achieve economic growth of that size. We will continue to encourage the increase in quality and inclusive investment," he said. Director of Downstream Governance of the Ministry of Investment and Downstream, Ahmad Faisal, who was one of the speakers, said that West Java, with its quite large potential, is very likely to become a region that continues to be the number one investment in Indonesia. "Extraordinary, West Java with all its potential, both natural resources and human resources. Indeed, there are some mining materials that West Java does not have, such as nickel, but in the downstream program, the nickel processing plant has the potential to be in West Java, because one of the uses of nickel is in the manufacture of electric vehicle batteries. While the electric vehicle factory is in West Java. Of course, the battery manufacturing plant will be close to the vehicle manufacturing plant," said Faisal. Another speaker from the Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association (HIPMI), Firaldi Akbar expressed his commitment to work together with the government to increase investment. "We are together, but it must be concrete, don't stop every program at the MoU. HIPMI is committed to moving the potential that HIPMI has," he said. (Pun) [SOURCE]

Based on data released by the Majalengka Regency Investment and One-Stop Integrated Service Office (DPMPTSP), the total investment realization in the area reached IDR 3.59 trillion. This figure places Majalengka in first place in terms of investment receipts compared to other regions. Head of DPMPTSP Majalengka Regency Ucu Sumarna said that investment realization in Majalengka Regency in 2024 had increased significantly. "Compared to other regions in other regions, investment realization in Majalengka in 2024 was the highest. This is proof that Majalengka Regency is increasingly in demand by investors, both from within the country and abroad," said Ucu, Wednesday (2/19/2025). Based on DPMPTSP data, after Majalengka, Cirebon Regency is in second place with investment realization reaching IDR3.11 trillion. Meanwhile, Cirebon City follows in third place with an investment of IDR2.55 trillion. Indramayu Regency recorded an investment of IDR1.51 trillion, and Kuningan Regency is in last place with an investment of IDR493.3 billion. "This quite high investment realization shows that Majalengka Regency is increasingly being considered by investors as a strategic location to develop their businesses," explained Ucu. According to Ucu, there are several factors that contribute to the increase in investment in Majalengka. One of them is the support of infrastructure that is increasingly developing rapidly. Majalengka Regency has toll road access that facilitates the distribution of goods and mobility of workers. In addition, the existence of the West Java International Airport (BIJB) Kertajati is also a special attraction for investors who want to run a business in the area. In addition to infrastructure, another factor that attracts investors is the relatively more affordable wages compared to other areas in West Java. This provides benefits for companies in reducing operational costs. "Ease of licensing is also one of the attractions for investors to invest in Majalengka. We continue to strive to provide the best service so that the licensing process runs quickly and efficiently," he added. To maintain this positive trend, the Majalengka Regency Government has prepared several strategies to continue to increase investment attractiveness. Some of the steps taken include improving licensing services, building supporting infrastructure and promoting regional potential. The Majalengka Regency Government is optimistic that it can continue to increase the attractiveness of the region for investors in the following years. Support from various parties, including the community, is also key to creating a healthy and sustainable business environment. "We hope this positive trend can continue. We will continue to make improvements and innovations so that incoming investment can have a positive impact on economic growth and the welfare of the community in Majalengka Regency," concluded Ucu.

RADARBEKASI.ID, BEKASI – Bekasi City has again recorded impressive performance in investment. Investment realization in 2024 exceeded the target, reaching 103 percent of the projection of IDR 13.2 trillion. Head of the Bekasi City Investment and One-Stop Integrated Licensing Service (DPMPTSP), Dicky Irawan, revealed that until the end of 2024, investment realization was recorded at IDR 13.7 trillion. "The latest report in the fourth quarter based on the BKPM release, investment realization in Bekasi City reached IDR 13.708 trillion," he said, Thursday (13/2). Of the total investment, the tertiary sector dominates with a value of IDR 10.5 trillion. Property, industrial areas, and offices are the largest contributors with IDR 2.1 trillion. Meanwhile, the secondary sector—including trade, services, and finished goods industry—contributed IDR 3 trillion. Meanwhile, the primary sector, such as agriculture and fisheries, only contributed IDR 103 billion. “Investment in the tertiary sector is indeed high because there are construction activities and land acquisition. For example, the construction of the Cibitung-Cimanggis Toll Road which was underway last year,” added Dicky. Although the city space is increasingly dense, Dicky is optimistic that investment will continue to grow, referring to Jakarta which remains an investment magnet despite experiencing similar density. “We are optimistic because we are a big city. Jakarta is still very big,” he said. This optimism is reinforced by the development plan for the Transit Oriented Development (TOD) area which is expected to trigger the growth of vertical properties, shopping centers, and investment in the transportation sector. However, will the density of space not be an obstacle in the future? An evaluation of its impact on new investment will be carried out at the end of 2025. "If later there is a negative impact, we can take strategic steps. But so far, investment has its own business patterns and considerations," said Dicky. In the West Java investment map, Bekasi City is ranked fourth after Bekasi Regency, Karawang, and Bogor. Geographical advantages—bordering Jakarta and Bekasi Regency—and a large population are the main attractions for investors. Data shows that investment is still dominated by Domestic Investment (PMDN) of IDR 7.87 trillion, while Foreign Investment (PMA) is recorded at IDR 5.83 trillion. STIE Mulia Pratama Economic Observer, Andi Muhammad Sadeli, assessed that Bekasi City needs to adopt a long-term strategy to remain competitive. "This city needs to clarify the identity of the industry it wants to develop. City branding is very important, will Bekasi become an industrial city, a digital city, or a logistics center?" he said. He also emphasized the importance of incentives and ease of licensing for the targeted sectors. One option is to attract investment in the technology and digital economy sectors. "Bekasi has large capital with a high population and strong digital penetration. Investments can be directed to data centers, startups, and the AI ecosystem," he added. In the property sector, Andi highlighted the superblock trend, where housing is not only vertical but also integrates office areas, business centers, and other facilities in one area. In addition, the development of logistics and distribution areas is still very promising considering that Bekasi is the main buffer city for Jakarta. "This sector remains potential, especially if supported by the right policies," he said. On the other hand, the creative economy and urban tourism sectors are also recommended as economic diversification options. However, without careful planning and a precise strategy, investment growth in Bekasi City could slow down in the next few years. (sur) (SOURCE)
