JAKARTA - Investment Minister/Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Bahlil Lahadalia confirmed that Bambang Susantono's resignation as Head of the Capital Archipelago Authority (IKN) would not interfere with investments in IKN, East Kalimantan.

"First, the Head of OIKN resigned at all did not interfere with the investment process in IKN. Instead, even though he resigned because there was a new assignment, the processes from what he had done in the future were still going on," he said at the BKPM Office, Jakarta, Friday, June 7.

Bahlil also expressed the attitude of investors regarding the news of Bambang's resignation. He said there were no questions from investors.

Furthermore, Bahlil also emphasized that investors have never intervened in government internal policies.

"(Investors) don't, don't ask questions. That's an internal government matter, we are the government, ministers, heads of OKN take turns normally, part of rotation," he said.

In addition, Bahlil also denied the assumption that IKN investment was dragged. He said a number of projects had been built with significant progress.

"Keep going, it's not true if they say there's no investment going. Then what's the name, the hotel is partially finished, RS 60 to 70 percent. That's Mayapada, there's no problem," he said.

Even so, Bahlil admitted that infrastructure development in IKN was not yet 100 percent. Bahlil also said that investors' interest in entering IKN was not reduced.

"That the infrastructure development process has not yet 100 percent agreed, yes, that's right. But the interest is that no investment is lacking," he explained.
