JAKARTA - SpaceX's plan, Elon Musk's company to invest in the capital city of Nusantara (IKN) went smoothly.

The company only needs to meet the requirements put forward by the Indonesian government.

Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Bahlil Lahadalia said SpaceX's investment plan in IKN was not constrained by anything.

"They make investments and the administrative process goes as it should. There are also no principles constrained things," he told reporters at the BKPM office, Jakarta, Thursday, February 16.

However, he said, there were indeed several applications from SpaceX that were still being discussed and some requirements still had to be met by SpaceX.

There are some of their applications whose requirements must be met. So we don't get in the way. Just walk, on the track everything," he said.

For your information, SpaceX's investment plan was revealed earlier this month. He said the company owned by Elon Musk plans to build a super-fast internet network using satellites.

One of SpaceX's business units is Starlink, an internet service provider based on satellite infrastructure and land terminals.

Currently, Statlink operates dozens of satellites reflecting internet signals from low orbit.

Starlink has also collaborated with a subsidiary of PT Telkom Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, Telkomsat.
