"Big Stuff:" Tesla To Build EV Factory and Battery Plant in Indonesia

According to Indonesia’s Investment Minister Bahlil Lahadalia, Tesla aims to build battery and EV plant in Indonesia. This could possibly well mean that Tesla is building its next Gigafactory for electric cars in Indonesia. It's not going to be India.

“God willing, Tesla will enter Indonesia this year,” said Bahlil in Jakarta. But I can’t announce the month yet. Let’s wait because we haven’t signed an agreement yet. How much investment is still being kept secret, still waiting. But this is good stuff, big stuff.”

According to Benar News, Musk, for his part, said he was “fired up” by Indonesia’s enthusiasm.

“We’re going to look closely from the Tesla and SpaceX standpoint to try to do some partnerships in Indonesia,” he said in a video that circulated online after the meeting.

“And, like I said, I think the future of Indonesia is very bright. I think we were looking closely to a potential collaboration on many, many fronts,” the multi-billionaire added.

A statement issued over the weekend from Jokowi’s office said Musk planned to visit Indonesia in November, the same month when the Southeast Asian nation hosts the G-20 summit.
