Indonesia-Singapore summit to highlight Bintan Buoy’s potential

It will also focus on the travel bubble involving resorts in Batam and Bintan. 

A meeting between Singapore’s Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Indonesia’s President Jokowi on Bintan Buoy is set to be held on 26 January at Bintan Buoy.

According to a report by OCBC Treasury Research’s Wellian Wiranto, the meeting will highlight issues such as flight zones, extradition treaty, and military cooperation

The economic agenda is also slated to be included especially because Singapore has also been the largest foreign direct investor in Indonesia since 2014. 

Currently, tourist flows into Indonesia dropped by around 85% in 2020 from the pre-pandemic level. 

To combat this, Indonesia has also announced a travel bubble, allowing Singaporeans to travel to resorts in Batam and Bintan without the seven-day quarantine rule. The meeting is also set to further solidify this argument.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
