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

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
