This represents an increase of 1.04% compared to the previous quarter and a year-on-year increase of 79.82% compared to IDR 75.8 trillion in Q1 2024. The Minister of Investment and Downstream Industry / Head of the Investment Coordinating Board stated that the investment potential in the downstream industry is enormous, and the 79.82% year-on-year growth is significant, bringing considerable benefits to the Indonesian economy. In terms of investment composition, this sector contributed 29.3% to the total investment in Q1 2025, an increase from 24% over the past three years, thanks to the optimization of downstream product processing. Among this, mineral commodity investment reached IDR 97.6 trillion, mainly in nickel, steel, copper, etc.; the plantation and forestry sector contributed IDR 31.13 trillion, covering oil palm, rubber, etc.; the oil and gas sector reached IDR 6.55 trillion; and the fisheries and marine commodities sector reached IDR 1.03 trillion, including salt, tuna, etc. Previously, investment was mostly concentrated in nickel and its downstream industries. Now, the copper industry is also developing. In the future, it will promote deep processing of industries such as oil palm to create more jobs and added value, while also continuing to drive the diversification of downstream industries in the marine sector, such as seaweed and fish.
