Jakarta. Indonesia recorded Rp 942.9 trillion (approx. $57.38 billion) in total investment realization during the first half of 2025, with domestic investment surpassing foreign direct investment (FDI), according to the Investment Ministry.

Investment Minister Rosan Roeslani said domestic investment (PMDN) reached Rp 510.3 trillion, outpacing foreign investment (PMA), which stood at Rp 432.6 trillion. The combined figure represents a 13.6 percent increase compared to the same period last year.

"Investment realization for the first half reached Rp 942.9 trillion, up 13.6 percent. This aligns well with our projected plans," Rosan said at a press briefing in Jakarta on Tuesday.

For the second quarter alone (April–June), investment realization amounted to Rp 477.7 trillion. This brings the first-half achievement to 49.5 percent of the government's full-year investment target of Rp 1,905.6 trillion.

Investment outside Java amounted to Rp 476 trillion, slightly higher than Java’s Rp 466.9 trillion, reflecting continued momentum in regional development. The investments created around 1.25 million jobs during the first six months of the year, Rosan said.

"Job creation remains a key indicator. We’ve generated 1.25 million jobs in just six months," he added.

Mining Sector Among Top Investment Draws

Mining remains one of the top sectors attracting both domestic and foreign investors. The sector ranked third in investment realization with Rp 102.2 trillion in the first half of the year.

The metal processing industry led the rankings with Rp134.4 trillion, followed by the transport, warehousing, and telecommunications sector at Rp 110.7 trillion. Other leading sectors include miscellaneous services (Rp 85.7 trillion) and housing, industrial estates, and offices (Rp 75 trillion).

"Mining continues to be a strong contributor, followed by other services and property-related sectors," Rosan said.

Despite strong activity in extractive industries, Rosan reaffirmed Indonesia’s commitment to its energy transition and net-zero emission (NZE) goals. He highlighted the government's long-term power supply plan with state utility firm PLN, which targets the addition of 69.5 GW of generation capacity by 2034 --76 percent of which will come from renewable sources and storage systems.

This includes 42.6 GW from renewables such as solar, wind, and geothermal, 10.3 GW from storage, and 16.6 GW from fossil-based sources.

"We’re fully committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2060. Preparations for this transition are already underway," Rosan concluded.
