SEAToday.com, Jakarta - The Daya Anagata Nusantara Investment Management Agency (Danantara) is ready to invest in strategic energy projects in Indonesia.

This was conveyed by President Prabowo Subianto when giving a speech at the opening of the 49th Annual Convention and Exhibition of the Indonesian Petroleum Association (IPA Convex) 2025 in Tangerang, Banten.

"I encourage all parties from within and outside the country to please enter the opportunities that we provide, and we have also prepared a large investment fund, namely Danantara Indonesia which is also ready to invest strategically in available energy projects together with friends abroad to drive our needs," said President Prabowo as reported by Antara.
