Indonesia FDI at record US$5.9b

A record US$5.9 billion in foreign direct investment flowed into Indonesia in the third quarter, showing that Southeast Asia’s biggest economy remains resilient in the face of a bleak global outlook, the country’s investment board said on Monday.

In rupiah terms, total FDI in July to September rose 22.00 per cent year-on-year to 56.6 trillion rupiah (US$5.90 billion), after 30.2 per cent annual growth in the second quarter. The third quarter number is a record for any quarter.
