Boeing Projects Indonesia Will Need 1,500 New Aircraft in 20 Years Reporter Alfitria Nefi P October 18, 2025 | 02:40 pm TEMPO.CO, Jakarta – Managing Director of Boeing Indonesia, Indra Duivenvoorde, projected that Indonesia will require around 1,500 new aircraft over the next two decades.“This reflects the need for a strong aerospace ecosystem, including infrastructure and maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) activities,” Indra said in a written statement on Thursday, October 16, 2025.He added that Boeing plans to expand its cooperation with PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI), which has long supplied components for Boeing’s 737, 767, and 777 aircraft.The statement was delivered during a meeting between the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) and a delegation from the US-ASEAN Business Council (US-ABC).According to Indra, Boeing seeks to strengthen its partnership with Kadin, particularly in STEM education, supply chain development, and the MRO sector in Indonesia. “We are also in the process of becoming a member, if possible,” he said.Kadin Chair Anindya Novyan Bakrie said that technology companies like Boeing could play a key role in enhancing the technological skills of Indonesia’s youth. One tangible initiative, he noted, is the national internship program initiated by the government.“Foreign companies or foreign direct investment (FDI) participants can also take part, as the government covers the minimum wage for interns,” Anindya said.He went on to highlight Kadin’s strategy for strengthening international engagement through the Kadin Global Engagement Office (Kadin GEO).Over the past year, Kadin has participated in one-third of President Prabowo Subianto’s 40 international visits, hosted 40 foreign delegations, and held 80 international meetings.Anindya said Kadin GEO aims to build a consistent narrative on trade and investment in bilateral and multilateral forums, while fostering knowledge partnerships with major global companies like Boeing.“We want to learn from global experiences. Boeing, as a member of the US-ABC, can serve as a knowledge partner in areas such as international trade, supply chains, and sustainable urban mobility,” he said.Editor’s Choice: Indonesia’s Purbaya Says Market Fluctuations Benefit InvestorsClick here to get the latest news updates from Tempo on Google News Boeing Projects Indonesia Will Need 1,500 New Aircraft in 20 Years Reporter Alfitria Nefi P October 18, 2025 | 02:40 pm TEMPO.CO, Jakarta – Managing Director of Boeing Indonesia, Indra Duivenvoorde, projected that Indonesia will require around 1,500 new aircraft over the next two decades.“This reflects the need for a strong aerospace ecosystem, including infrastructure and maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) activities,” Indra said in a written statement on Thursday, October 16, 2025.He added that Boeing plans to expand its cooperation with PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI), which has long supplied components for Boeing’s 737, 767, and 777 aircraft.The statement was delivered during a meeting between the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) and a delegation from the US-ASEAN Business Council (US-ABC).According to Indra, Boeing seeks to strengthen its partnership with Kadin, particularly in STEM education, supply chain development, and the MRO sector in Indonesia. “We are also in the process of becoming a member, if possible,” he said.Kadin Chair Anindya Novyan Bakrie said that technology companies like Boeing could play a key role in enhancing the technological skills of Indonesia’s youth.
