In a press conference at the PCO Office in Jakarta on Thursday, he stated that the data demonstrates foreign investors' confidence in the national economic prospects under President Prabowo Subianto's administration.
"Of the five countries that have invested the most in Indonesia, Singapore is the largest investor, with an investment value of US$8.8 billion," he said.
In Indonesia, Hong Kong and China's investment realization reached more than US$8 billion, while Malaysia's investment was US$1.7 billion, and Japan's investment was US$1.6 billion.
The five largest sectors attracting foreign investment included the basic metals industry, transportation and telecommunications, mining, services, and the housing and industrial estates sector.
"These investments have been realized. This means they are truly investing here, not just commitments or promises," he stated.
The total realized investment value as of August 2025 was recorded at Rp942.9 trillion, or nearly 50 percent of the annual target of Rp1,900 trillion.
He said that the achievement became a strong signal that Indonesia remains a prime global investment destination.
