Still Far From The Target, Investment In The Marine And New Fisheries Sector Is IDR 7.45 Trillion

The realization of investment in the marine and fisheries (KP) sector is estimated to be only IDR 7.45 trillion until the third quarter of 2025. In fact, the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) targets the investment value in the sector to reach IDR 13.11 trillion by the end of the year.

This means that around IDR 6 trillion is still needed to achieve this target in the remaining 1.5 months.

This was conveyed by KKP Secretary General Rudy Heriyanto Adi Nugroho at the Investment and Business Matching event entitled "Accelerate National Economic Growth Through Downstreaming of Fisheries in Jakarta, Thursday, November 20.

"By 2025, the marine and fisheries sector has targeted an investment of IDR 13.11 trillion. In the third quarter of 2025, investment realization is estimated to have reached IDR 7.45 trillion. Therefore, we need to encourage investment in the marine and fisheries sector so that it can be realized according to the set target," he said.

Meanwhile, based on the calculation of the Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming/BKPM, it takes PMA and PMDN investment of Rp. 13,033 trillion during 2025-2029 to realize the national economic growth target of 8 percent.

Therefore, the KKP has also increased the investment target in the marine and fisheries sector to IDR 79.21 trillion in the period 2025-2029.

"The role of the private sector in realizing investment is very significant to drive the national economy," he said.

Through the forum, Rudy invited representatives of ambassadors, trading partners of friendly countries and investors to invest in the Indonesian marine and fisheries sector.

According to him, the Government of the Republic of Indonesia is committed to providing ease of licensing, incentives, security and stability of the political climate, connectivity and skilled human resources (HR) as a workforce.

"Through this activity, the KKP wants to encourage the achievement of business agreements and the realization of investment in the marine and fisheries sector in Indonesia," he added.
