High Investment Needs for Industrial Development
Indonesian Investment Minister Bahlil Lahadalia has announced a so-called "Downstreaming Roadmap" to 2040. It is intended to provide the framework for the further processing of domestic raw materials. The aim is to sell these with higher added value on the world market. A total of 21 raw materials are in focus. These are mainly mineral raw materials, but also agricultural materials and fisheries products. The minister put the necessary investment requirements at USD 545.3 billion. More than three quarters of this is said to be attributable to the processing of mineral ores and coal.
