“I believe this (is) because, in the terms of investor appetite, the interest remains strong. If we look at the nature of our investors, especially those who engaged in FDI, they are more concentrated in Asian countries,” he said in Jakarta on Tuesday.
He added that most of the funds coming into Indonesia are generally from countries such as Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Malaysia, Japan, and South Korea. All have a strong commitment to investing in the country, he said.
“So, the commitment remains strong and consistent,” he added.
As a result, the current escalation in the Middle East has not had a significant impact on Indonesia so far.
“We will see (the situation) for the next six months. So far, everything has been good, very good, and positive. From our perspective, there has not been any major impact. Everything is running smoothly,” he said.
Recently, Iran launched a massive missile strike on the United States’ Al Udeid military base in Qatar, in retaliation for a US attack on its nuclear facilities. Iran used the same number of missiles as the US used against its nuclear sites.
