The Inauguration of The Integrated Electric Vehicle Battery Ecosystem in Karawang

When do we truly become sovereign over our natural resources?

To me, it begins when we have the courage to manage and develop our own natural wealth, shaping a future that we define together. It happens when we take control of the entire value chain and turn it into a self-sustaining strategic force.

The inauguration of the Integrated Electric Vehicle Battery Ecosystem in Karawang by President of the Republic of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto, marks a new chapter of hope. I witnessed firsthand the collaboration between ANTAM, IBC, and CBL (CATL Group) in forming a comprehensive ecosystem from mining to recycling. This is a tangible manifestation of the downstream industrialization we have long envisioned, and a crucial first step in building a sustainable and independent industry.

ANTAM continues to play a strategic role in driving national value creation and sustainable industrial transformation. It is not merely about executing projects, but about shaping a new path for the development of industries rooted in our local resources.

This is the spirit we champion at Danantara Indonesia: to build high-value industries grounded in local strength.

We are rewriting the narrative of our industrial future. May this effort serve as a strong foundation for the next generation, not just as a source of pride today, but as a legacy of vision and courage. We humbly seek your prayers and support, so this step may continue to grow and deliver long-term impact for our nation.
