Jakarta (ANTARA) – Jakarta is exploring green infrastructure and environmental investment cooperation with a Chinese delegation to accelerate sustainable urban development and strengthen climate resilience amid global challenges.The Jakarta Provincial Government, through the Investment and One-Stop Integrated Service Office (DPMPTSP), held talks with the All-China Environment Federation (ACEF) to expand collaboration in environmentally focused sectors.Deputy Head of DPMPTSP DKI Jakarta Muhammad Herizkianto said the more than 70-year relationship between Indonesia and China provides a strong foundation to deepen sustainable investment partnerships.”We believe that strong partnerships will determine our success in building resilient and sustainable urban systems,” Herizkianto said in Jakarta on Friday.He emphasized that Jakarta cannot advance alone and invited investors to jointly develop solutions in environmental management and sustainable urban development.China remains a significant contributor to Indonesia’s foreign direct investment, reaching US$7.5 billion nationally in 2025, including US$483 million allocated to Jakarta.Herizkianto noted that investment figures still have substantial room for growth, particularly in environmental services, infrastructure, and green city development initiatives.The Jakarta Investment Centre (JIC), under DPMPTSP, is ready to facilitate investors throughout the process, from project exploration to licensing, he added.ACEF Vice Chairman Hong Ping said Jakarta, as one of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic cities, offers vast development opportunities for long-term collaboration.”We do not only want to be a technology provider, but also a long-term partner in Jakarta’s development,” Hong said.He highlighted priority sectors including urban transportation, wastewater treatment, water quality improvement, and waste management, aligning with Jakarta’s pressing environmental needs.”These sectors are our core strengths. We are ready to bring solutions and experience from China to be implemented through concrete, mutually beneficial projects,” he said.ACEF also encouraged establishing long-term communication mechanisms to ensure the partnership moves beyond discussions into tangible project implementation.
