Indonesia’s investment realisation reached Rp1,010.6 trillion (US$56.1 billion) in the first half of 2026, up 7.2 percent from a year earlier, achieving nearly half the annual target and creating 1.44 million jobs, Investment and Downstreaming Minister Rosan Roeslani said.
According to his press statement released here on Thursday, the figure represented 49.5 percent of the government’s 2026 investment target of Rp2,041.3 trillion.
Rosan said the first-half performance kept Indonesia on track to achieve its full-year investment goal.
The realized investments created 1.44 million jobs, up 15 percent from the first half of 2025.
“Investor commitment to direct investment in Indonesia remains in line with the targets set for 2026,” Rosan said.
Investment outside Java exceeded inflows into the country’s most populous island, supporting the government’s efforts to promote more balanced regional development.
Java attracted Rp502.8 trillion, or 49.8 percent of total investment, while regions outside Java received Rp507.8 trillion, or 50.2 percent.
Domestic direct investment and foreign direct investment remained broadly balanced during January-June 2026, Rosan said.
Domestic investment totaled Rp502.9 trillion, or 49.8 percent of the total, while foreign direct investment reached Rp507.6 trillion, accounting for 50.2 percent.
Singapore remained Indonesia’s largest foreign investor with US$8.8 billion, followed by Hong Kong at US$7.6 billion, China at US$3.9 billion, Japan at US$1.9 billion and the United States at US$1.7 billion.
The five economies accounted for about 77.8 percent of Indonesia’s total foreign direct investment in the first half of 2026.
Rosan said the figures underscored resilient investor confidence in Indonesia despite persistent global geopolitical and economic uncertainty.
“Despite global geopolitical and geoeconomic challenges, investor commitment to direct investment in Indonesia remains consistent with the 2026 target,” he said.
