The mining sector led with 193.8 trillion rupiah, with nickel (94.1 trillion rupiah) as the core, followed by copper (40 trillion rupiah) and bauxite (27.7 trillion rupiah). The nickel downstream industry is the core of the electric vehicle (including batteries and recycling systems) ecosystem, and is currently cooperating with state-owned enterprises to advance a full-chain project (from nickel ore to battery recycling) worth USD 9 billion (approx. 150 trillion rupiah). The plantation and forestry sector contributed 67.4 trillion rupiah, with palm oil (31.6 trillion rupiah), logs (24.9 trillion rupiah), and rubber (8.2 trillion rupiah) as main components. Oil and gas sector investment reached 17.3 trillion rupiah, including crude oil 7.9 trillion rupiah and natural gas 9.4 trillion rupiah. Fishery sector investment reached 2.3 trillion rupiah, involving commodities such as salt, tuna, skipjack, mackerel, shrimp, seaweed, swimming crab, and tilapia. The Minister of Investment and Downstream Industry stated that with new investors entering and the advancement of downstream projects for multiple strategic commodities, downstream industry investment is expected to continue growing in the second half of 2025 and become an important pillar driving sustained national economic growth.
