JAKARTA - Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Arifin Tasrif revealed that Indonesia has an investment attraction in the field of new and renewable energy (EBT).

This is because Indonesia has large resources and potential.

"Indonesia has extraordinary resources, including EBT sources. This is an attraction for investors to enter here," said Arifin at the Indonesian Economic Outlook National Seminar, Friday, December 22.

Not only the potential of EBT, another factor that is considered to be able to attract investors is Indonesia's geographical leak which is quite strategic and last, has reliable demographics.

"What do we have? Now countries want to work together," he added.

Despite being a prima donna, continued Arifin, Indonesia must also be observant in cooperating with which countries provide good value in order to have a positive impact on the development of people's welfare in the future.

Not only that, Arifin said that another advantage that Indonesia has is Indonesia's initiative to become the energy hub for countries in ASEAN so that Indonesia's EBT can be linked to neighboring countries.

"Indonesia should not think that only 280 million people, but also the 700 million ASEAN people also need market potential," continued Arifin.

Moreover, continued Arifin, Indonesia also has clean energy that can produce hydrogen, green ammonia and all forms of energy needed in the future.

"And this should be an attraction for incoming investment," concluded Arifin.
