For this reason, I ask for Kenya’s support to make Pertamina’s investment with the Geothermal Development Company and Guma group can be realized and expanded in the field of new and renewable energy and the need to establish a Bilateral Investment Treaty between the two countries,” Jokowi said, in his statement.

Apart from strengthening investment, Jokowi encourages increased trade between Indonesia and Kenya. He conveyed that the government noted that trade between these two countries had reached US$507 million in 2022.

“I have also conveyed Indonesia’s commitment through Indonesia-Africa Infrastructure Dialogue (IAID) for Kenya in health, food security, and disaster management. From now on, this plan will be further enhanced, specifically for the most prioritized sector in Kenya,” Jokowi affirmed.

In response to this strategic plan, the President Director of Pertamina, Nicke Widyawati, affirmed that Pertamina continues to unlock numerous opportunities to cooperate. According to her, In Kenya, the company has signed an MoU in the geothermal sector and is exploring strategic cooperation from the upstream to downstream industries.
