Other investment opportunities include mineral resource downstreaming, the lithium battery industry, transportation, renewable energy, health infrastructure, and digital transformation, he said.



"But these all must continue to pay attention to the principles of local worker employment, environment friendly, value-added, and commitment to technological transfer," he added.



Meanwhile, Hong Kong-based Indonesian Consul General Ricky Suhendar underlined the Indonesian government's commitment to continuing the agenda of structural reform, deregulation, and debureaucratization in the investment sector.



The Indonesian government will ensure legal certainty and improve the ease of doing business and investment in the country, he said.
