Investments to Central Sulawesi reached Rp139.88t in 2024

Central Sulawesi Province Investment and One-Stop Integrated Service Office (DPMPTSP) Head Moh. Rifani reported during the 2025 Investment and PTSP Coordination Meeting at the Central Sulawesi Governor's Office in Palu City, Central Sulawesi on May 9, 2025, that realized investments Central Sulawesi Province in 2024 reached Rp139.88 trillion.

"This realization not only shows investor confidence in the Central Sulawesi business climate, it also contributes directly to the 9.08 percent regional economic growth," said Rifani.

The achievement made Central Sulawesi one of the four provinces with the highest investment value in Indonesia after West Java, Jakarta Special Capital Region, and East Java. After that success, Central Sulawesi is targeting realized investments to the province to reach Rp162.57 trillion in 2025, in line with the Investment and Downstream Ministry's national target.

The coordination meeting raised "Dare to Realize Quality Investment through Sustainable Downstream Development Towards Central Sulawesi Nambaso," as its theme, which emphasizes the importance of investment that is high in value and quality as well as oriented in creating added value to local economic sectors.

Central Sulawesi Economy and Development Assistant Rudi Dewanto, representing Central Sulawesi Governor Anwar Hafid at the meeting, emphasized that the success of investment must be supported by supporting infrastructure, such as the completion of industrial areas, the Tambu-Kasimbar bypass road, and the acceleration of investment permitting services.

"Our task is to follow up on this success with real work," he said.

This coordination meeting also includes appreciation given for Central Sulawesi regional governments with the best investment performance. The award for the highest percentage of target realization was given to the Banggai Regency Government, while the highest investment realization in 2024 was attained Morowali Regency, North Morowali Regency, and Palu City.

Also present at the meeting was Bank Indonesia Central Sulawesi Representative Office Head Rony Hartawan, who provided a macroeconomic perspective in supporting regional investment.
