“The investment commitments that have been signed are around 7-8 billion USD, but others worth around 10 billion USD have yet to be signed,” said Bahlil. Lahadalia in a November 17 press release.
He said the investment commitments that Indonesia received came from the Republic of Korea, China and several European countries.
