AT the beginning of October, the government established two new Special Economic Zones (SEZs) to enrich the investment location options in Indonesia, namely the Banten International Education, Technology and Health SEZ and the Batam International Health Tourism SEZ.
The National SEZ Council is also proposing the addition of six new SEZs, which would bring the total number to 30 as of early 2025.
