Dutch Businessmen to Invest in Indonesia

Indonesia needs the money-flow from foreign investment for the country to flourish and become the mighty nation it was once. At the moment, the money for infrastructure is obviously 'not available'.

I was pleased to read that a number of Dutch businessmen have expressed their interest in investing in the infrastructure, drinking water, health equipment and the financial sectors.

According to Chief Economic Minister Boediono after a meeting with Dutch Deputy Prime Minister L.J. Brinkhorst, "The Dutch businessmen have profound interest in investing in those sectors after seeing the latest economic development here".

It's not only the road infrastructure but also that of industries like development of the proposed nuclear plants, hospitals and the like. Investment is strongly needed in the tourism sector also in order to increase the development of tourist infrastructure. Tourism in Indonesia at the moment is at its lowest ebb in the islands outside of Bali.
