Indonesian industrial and resource regulation concerns

Overview

New government regulations in Indonesia are causing economic and industrial friction. In the mining sector, production quota limits for 2026 have reportedly caused significant revenue declines for micro, small, and medium enterprises in East Kalimantan, with estimated annual losses of 3.1 trillion rupiah. Additionally, the Indonesian Coal Mining Association has warned of potential export disruptions due to a mandate requiring strategic natural resources, including coal, to be channeled through the state-owned entity PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia starting in 2027.

In the manufacturing sector, industry representatives are calling on the Ministry of Industry to end import quotas and tax exemptions for seamless pipes. Local producers argue that domestic manufacturing capabilities are sufficient to meet national demand and that continued import facilities for available domestic products could undermine local competitiveness, discourage investment, and lead to bankruptcies or mass layoffs.
