Abundance of natural resources

 

  • Indonesia is endowed with rich natural resources such as natural gas, crude petroleum, coal, nickel, bauxite and copper5. It is also the world’s top palm oil producer6.
  • Indonesia benefits from its position as a major commodity exporter against a backdrop of surging commodity prices in recent months. This contributed tremendously to its rapid economic recovery post-pandemic and should continue to fuel economic growth moving forward.
  • It is also a beneficiary of the global shift from fossil fuel to renewable energy, with its vast mineral resources being key in the renewable energy supply chain.
