The Chairman of the Indonesian Employers Association (APINDO) publicly stated that local Indonesian enterprises are fully prepared for cooperation and are actively connecting with China's high-quality investment and technology resources. He emphasized that foreign investment requires local synergy and support. Through deep cooperation between Chinese and foreign enterprises, they can not only precisely grasp industrial development opportunities but also jointly address market challenges, enabling foreign-funded projects to truly take root and empower the local economy.
In addition to industrial investment, this meeting also finalized the core议题 of talent cultivation cooperation. Both sides agreed that the development of future industries such as high-tech, semiconductors, and new energy cannot be achieved without the support of professional and highly skilled talent. Subsequently, the two countries will launch education and skills training cooperation, collaborating with institutions such as the Bandung Institute of Technology to build a talent cultivation system, preparing a professional workforce for Indonesia's emerging industries and high-end manufacturing, empowering industrial upgrading through talent, and helping Indonesia build its core future technology industry chain.
