Manufacturers plan to build 54 new plants in SE Asia’s biggest economy by 2019, expected to surpass Malaysia and Thailand in the field.
President Joko Widodo’s government has adjusted the fuel subsidy policy and increased investment in infrastructure while promised to promote investment to boost the local economy which is growing at the lowest rate since 2009.
