Jakarta Governor, Pramono Anung emphasized the Jakarta Provincial Government's commitment to strengthening its position as a global city. This includes implementing various strategic initiatives to foster a sustainable and innovative investment climate.

It was stated by Pramono on his visit to Jakarta Investment Festival (JIF) Summit 2025 at St Regis Jakarta, Kuningan, Setiabudi, South Jakarta, Thursday (10/9).

"This is an important momentum to strengthen Jakarta's position as an open, inclusive, and competitive city at the global level," he said.

This activity serves as a platform for collaboration between the government, businesses, and investors to build a more globally competitive Jakarta. The SMART Investment concept consists of five main principles namely Sustainability, Mutual Collaboration, Adding Value, Research and Data-Based, and Tech and Innovation-Oriented.

Pramono added that investment realization in Jakarta continues to show a positive trend. As of the first semester of 2025, the cumulative realization of Domestic Direct Investment (PMDN) and Foreign Direct Investment (PMA) reached Rp 140.8 trillion, a 16.9 percent increase compared to Rp 120.42 trillion in the previous period.

"This increase reflects investor confidence in Jakarta's stability and economic prospects. The Jakarta Provincial Government will continue to maintain this trust through transparent, efficient policies that support shared progress," he added.

Several countries are listed as major investors in Jakarta, including Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and China. Meanwhile, the most popular investment sectors are transportation, warehousing, telecommunications, other services, and trade and repairs.

This year, JIF presented 32 projects ready for bidding, covering the development of 13 priority areas and telecommunications infrastructure, with a total project value of Rp 430.9 trillion (approximately USD26.9 billion). These projects will be implemented by 10 regional-owned enterprises (BUMD) and one regional service-owned enterprise (BLUD) in Jakarta.

The event was attended by around 500 invitees who are Jakarta's strategic partners, ranging from representatives of the central government, embassies, international institutions, to local and global investors.

"Through the implementation of the JIF Summit 2025, the Jakarta Provincial Government affirmed its commitment to continue to provide a healthy, collaborative, and innovation-oriented investment climate, in order to realize Jakarta as a developed and sustainable global city," he continued.

Minister of Investment and Downstream Development, Rosan Roeslani expressed his appreciation for the collaboration run by the Jakarta Provincial Government. He stated that Jakarta plays a significant role in supporting national economic growth.

"Jakarta has made a significant contribution to Indonesia's progress. Programs like Waste to Energy and the construction of the Giant Sea Wall have not only impacted Jakarta but also have broad benefits for the environment and public," he said.

As a form of commitment to more integrated investment services, the Jakarta Provincial Government is also preparing an Integrated Investment Gate, a one-stop service system, through 49 strategic service points throughout the Jakarta area.

With this system, investors can do consultation, obtain facilitation, and monitor the investment process more easily and transparently.

The Jakarta Provincial Government also provides tax incentives for strategic sectors, such as hotels and F&B with discounts of between 20–50 percent, as well as tax exemptions or reductions for public facilities such as schools and hospitals.
