West Java Province recorded the highest investment realization nationally by Rp141 trillion in the first half (H1) of 2025, with Rp72.5 trillion in the second quarter (Q2) of 2025 alone.
"We ranked first for Q2 2025. In H1 2025, we achieved a total investment of Rp141 trillion, consisting of US$4 billion in foreign investments and Rp90.4 trillion in domestic investments," stated West Java Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Office (DPMPTSP) Head Dedi Taufik on July 30, 2025.
He added that the achievement was inseparable from the commitment of West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi to create a welcoming investment climate through various measures.
"Starting from simplifying the licensing processes, eliminating restrictive regulations, to protecting investors," he said.
The West Java Provincial Government also provides various incentives, both fiscal and non-fiscal, to promote ease of doing business. In addition, the regional government actively empowers micro, small, and cooperative enterprises (MSMEs) by facilitating partnerships with large businesses, providing market access and financing, mentoring, training, as well as business certification and digitalization.
Dedi explained that the West Java DPMPTSP is optimizing public services through the Jelita application, physical and digital Public Service Malls (MPP), and a program to accelerate the issuance of Business Identification Numbers (NIB) through on-the spot service, Gebyar NIB, and mobile service vehicles.
West Java's investment potential continues to be explored through events such as the West Java Investment Challenge (WJIC), Cinematography of Investment Festival (CIFEST), and the West Java Investment Summit (WJIS)—which also serve as a forum for empowering MSMEs and resolving investment issues.
Dedi is also optimistic that investment will be a key driver of economic growth, as well as poverty and unemployment reduction in West Java.
"Investment will be the driving force of West Java's economy," he concluded.
