Meeting with The National Economic Council (Dewan Ekonomi Nasional)

Published on 22 April 2025

EuroCham Indonesia was invited to an exclusive meeting organized by AmCham Indonesia to engage with the National Economic Council of Indonesia (DEN) on March 25. Represented by Edison Bako, Executive Director, EuroCham joined fellow foreign chambers, AmCham Indonesia, BritCham Indonesia, and KoCham Indonesia, in discussions aimed at enhancing Indonesia’s business and investment climate.

Chairman Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, accompanied by Vice Chair Mari Elka Pangestu and other senior officials, welcomed inputs from the delegation. He provided updates on the government’s latest initiatives, including the adoption of Government Technology (GovTech) to improve efficiency and transparency in public services. Additionally, he emphasized the formation of a task force to address regulatory hurdles that may slow down investment.

The foreign chambers took the opportunity to convey key recommendations aimed at strengthening Indonesia’s competitiveness, ensuring regulatory certainty, and fostering a more investment-friendly environment. European businesses remain committed to Indonesia’s economic growth, but concerns persist regarding sudden policy shifts, particularly around import regulations and non-tariff barriers, which could disrupt business operations.

We appreciate the constructive engagement with DEN and look forward to further dialogues to support Indonesia’s economic transformation. Many thanks to AmCham Indonesia for facilitating this important discussion.
