GOVERNMENT WEIGHS FUNDING OPTIONS TO STRENGTHEN INDONESIA’S TEXTILE INDUSTRY
The Indonesian government is finalizing the structure of a IDR100 trillion capital injection aimed at strengthening the textile and textile products (TPT) industry. The funds will be managed by the Indonesia Investment Authority Danantara and are intended to enhance competitiveness through technological upgrades and improved investment conditions. Two options are under review: distributing credit facilities or establishing a new state‑owned enterprise (SOE) dedicated to textiles. Danantara is also assessing the potential acquisition of former Sritex assets, which are currently offered for lease at IDR326.86 billion per year. Indonesia's Coordinating Minister for the Economy Airlangga Hartarto noted that the funding targets labor‑intensive industries amid projections of continued growth in global textile consumption. Following directives from President Prabowo Subianto, the government is also considering the creation of a new textile‑focused SOE to help shield the domestic industry from external risks, including U.S. tariff policies. This new SOE would be managed directly by Danantara and is expected to strengthen the long‑term resilience of Indonesia’s TPT sector.Source: https://indonesiabusinesspost.com/5957/business-and-investment/government-weighs-funding-options-to-strengthen-indonesia-s-textile-industry (ICE GIACARTA)
