Chinese automaker Geely has officially entered the Indonesian automotive market with the launch of the EX5 electric car. In Indonesia, Geely will assemble its car locally by cooperating with Handal Indonesia Motor as its manufacturing partner in the country. However, Cahyo Purnomo, the Ministry of Investment / Investment Coordinating Board's (BKPM) director of promotion for the East Asia, South Asia, Middle East, and Africa region,  hopes that Geely can build its own factory in Indonesia and no longer rely on Handal Indonesia Motor to assemble its cars. Cahyo said the government has not set a deadline for Geely to build a factory in Indonesia. However, he hopes that the factory can be built as soon as possible so that Geely can take advantage of the incentives offered by the government. Geely has scheduled the assembly of its electric cars at the Handal Indonesia Motor plant to begin in the second quarter of this year. Its first product in the country, the EX5, will be the model produced at the plant.Source : https://en.tempo.co/read/1968165/entering-indonesia-govt-asks-geely-to-build-factory (ICE GIACARTA)
