SINGAPORE, March 25 (The Straits Times/ANN): Clean energy giant Tesla will not build a factory in Indonesia as negotiations with the government failed over, among other things, the terms related to the supply of raw material to make power generators.

This is according to two Indonesian government officials who spoke separately with The Straits Times, on condition of anonymity.
