Tianjin, 23 September 2026 — Reanda Indonesia (Reanda Bernardi) and Industropolis Batang Special Economic Zone presented Indonesia’s investment opportunities to Chinese businesses at the Renaissance Tianjin Hotel, Tianjin. The presentation was part of the forum Improve the Overseas Comprehensive Service System to Support High-Quality Global Expansion of Private Enterprises, organised by the Tianjin Enterprises “Going Global” Service Alliance as part of the Asia and Oceania Regional Meeting of Reanda International.

The forum brought together municipal government, trade associations, financial institutions, industrial parks and member firms of the Reanda International network. Its aim was to strengthen the integrated service system for Chinese private enterprises expanding overseas.

The event opened with remarks from a Tianjin municipal official. Further speeches were given by Mr. Wang Min, President of the China General Chamber of Commerce, and Mr. Huang Jinhui, Chairman of the Board of the Tianjin Enterprises “Going Global” Service Alliance and Chairman of Reanda International.

Indonesia in the opportunity sharing session

In the Opportunity Sharing session, Ms. Irma Sevrinta, General Manager of Industropolis Batang (Kawasan Industri Terpadu Batang), presented Industropolis Batang SEZ as an investment destination in Central Java. The estate sits under Danareksa and Danantara Indonesia, with a 4,300-hectare masterplan and more than 500 hectares of ready-to-build land.

Key points shared with prospective investors:

• Location and connectivity. About 65 km from Semarang, with direct access to the toll road, the national road, a double-track railway, a seaport and an on-site dry port.
• SEZ incentives. A tax holiday of 10, 15 or 20 years for minimum investments of Rp100 billion, Rp500 billion or Rp1 trillion, plus import duty, VAT and luxury goods sales tax facilities.
• Five-year track record. Rp22 trillion (USD 1.32 billion) of investment up to December 2025, 60 industrial tenants and 446 hectares of occupied land.
• G2G framework. The Indonesia–China Two Countries Twin Parks (TCTP) cooperation, in place since 2021.

Bridging Chinese investors to Indonesia

The Tianjin forum continues Reanda Indonesia’s role as a bridge between Chinese investors and Indonesia. Indonesia recorded USD 56.3 billion of realised investment in the first half of 2026, up 7.2% year on year, with foreign direct investment accounting for 50.2%.

Reanda Bernardi’s Perspectives

For Reanda Bernardi, the forum confirmed one thing: Chinese investor interest in Indonesia is already there, and what determines the outcome is readiness to execute. The forum’s theme of an integrated service system matches that need, because a cross-border investment decision touches legal, tax, customs and employment matters at the same time.

SEZ incentives such as those offered by Industropolis Batang open real opportunities, but they do not apply automatically. Investors need to set up the right investment structure, apply for the facilities in line with the regulations and meet their investment realisation commitments. The choice between a tax holiday for main activities and a tax allowance for activities outside the main activities should also be assessed at the planning stage.

Once operations begin, the benefit of the incentives is preserved only through consistent compliance, including tax reporting, transfer pricing documentation for related-party transactions and customs obligations. Reanda Bernardi therefore sees collaboration between estate operators and professional service providers as key, so that investors receive the same support from feasibility study through to operations.
