Megaproyek pembangunan ibu kota baru Indonesia di Kalimantan Timur, menarik perhatian para investor Jepang.
Sekitar 21 delegasi Asosiasi Jepang-Indonesia (Japinda) datang menemui Presiden Jokowi di Istana Merdeka, Jakarta Pusat, Rabu (20/11). Nampak juga mantan Perdana Menteri Jepang Yasuo Fukuda yang juga Ketua Japinda, diantara tamu yang hadir.
Pertemuan berlangsung pada pukul 11.57 WIB. Presiden Jokowi didampingi oleh Menteri Koordinator Bidang Perekonomian Airlangga Hartarto, Menteri Luar Negeri Retno Marsudi, Menteri Perhubungan Budi Karya Sumadi, Menteri PUPR Basuki Hadimuljono, dan Seskab Pramono Anung.
Belum jelas apa yang dibicarakan. Namun, merujuk pada pertemuan delegasi Japinda dengan Menteri Koordinator Bidang Kemaritiman dan Investasi Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, Selasa kemarin, (19/11), para investor tersebut ingin berinvestasi di Indonesia, terkait pembangunan Ibu kota baru di Kalimantan.
"Mantan Prime Minister Fukuda bawa tim 30 orang investor Jepang, dia mau investasi di Indonesia. (Proyeknya) kereta api Jakarta-Surabaya, kemudian Patimban, dan mereka ingin terlibat (di proyek pembangunan) ibu kota baru," ujar Luhut di kantornya, Selasa (19/11 ).
Luhut menuturkan, ketertarikan investor Jepang terhadap proyek ibukota baru disinyalir karena mereka telah memiliki pengalaman membangun smart city dan green city.
