The government continues to promote the development of industrial estates across various regions of Indonesia. This commitment is reflected in the establishment of new domestic industrial estates during the administration of President Prabowo Subianto and Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka over the past year. Minister of Industry Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita stated that within the first year of the Prabowo–Gibran administration, Indonesia has established nine new industrial estates, four of which are located outside Java.
“So, the nine estates are IPIP in Central Sulawesi, I-Sentra in East Java, Huadi Bantaeng Industrial Park in South Sulawesi, Cikembar II Industrial Estate in West Java, Losarang Industrial Estate in West Java, Purwakarta Integrated Industrial Park in West Java, Pulau Penebang Industrial Estate in West Kalimantan, Seafer Industrial Estate in Central Java, and Tembesi Industrial Estate in West Kalimantan,” Agus explained at a press conference on the Ministry of Industry’s achievements in the first year of the Prabowo–Gibran administration in South Jakarta, Monday (October 20, 2025).
With this addition, the total land area of Indonesia’s industrial estates has expanded by 4.81%, equivalent to 4,468.68 hectares. Similarly, the number of SEZ tenants has increased by 132 companies, or 1.12%.
“The growth of these industrial estates has had a positive impact on national economic performance, as reflected in the rise in investment by IDR 571.58 trillion, or 9.26%, and in employment by 15%, or approximately 310,000 workers,” he added.
In addition to enhancing competitiveness through industrial estate development, the ministry is also strengthening domestic industry access to global markets by expanding international cooperation through various trade agreements.
“Thank God, this year, in 2025, Indonesia has officially joined several international partnerships such as BRICS, the Indonesia–Canada Comprehensive Economic Partnership, the Indonesia–Peru Comprehensive Economic Partnership, and the recently signed Indonesia–EU CEPA, all of which will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the manufacturing sector,” Agus said.
At the same time, to support domestic industrial growth, Agus added that the ministry is also providing fiscal incentives through the Labor-Intensive Industrial Credit (KIPK) program for small and medium-sized labor-intensive industries to modernize machinery and boost productivity. The loan ceiling ranges from IDR 500 million to IDR 10 billion, with a 5% interest subsidy and a tenor of up to eight years.
“As of October 2025, 13 distribution institutions have been designated, with a total ceiling of IDR 754 billion, targeting 357 debtors or industries,” he said.
