Besides with its larger population (267 million people vs. 95 million people in Vietnam in 2018), Indonesia offers interesting resources for growth but implies also highest level of risks that needs to be secured.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>The &#8216;Made in Indonesia&#8217; Alternative to China<\/h2>\n<p>The textile industry is one of Indonesia\u2019s oldest and most strategic industries, significantly contributing to national growth with around 1.8 million people directly employed. It\u2019s<strong> among the world\u2019s top 10 textile-producing nation<\/strong>s and the industry is expected to record a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mordorintelligence.com\/industry-reports\/indonesia-textiles-industry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CAGR of 5.74%<\/a> during the forecast period 2019-2024.<\/p>\n<h3>Growth Since 2017<\/h3>\n<p>Despite a slowdown since 2014 as a result of a decline in global oil prices and an increase in gas and electricity rates, the Indonesian Textile Association (API) reported that <a href=\"https:\/\/en.tempo.co\/read\/1204790\/indonesias-textile-and-clothing-industrys-growth-reaches-18\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Indonesia\u2019s textile and clothing industry started to reverse the trend in 2017<\/strong><\/a>, mainly\u00a0due to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Substantial investment in the upstream sector, especially rayon producers<\/li>\n<li>Control policy on imports by the government since 2019<\/li>\n<li>Education and training activities to increase productivity by the Ministry of Industry<\/li>\n<li>Local consumption of textile following population growth and lifestyle change<\/li>\n<li>Local elections in 2018 &amp; 2019 which increased people\u2019s spending power and so garment sales<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Benefit From the Trade War<\/h3>\n<p>Indonesia is also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thejakartapost.com\/news\/2019\/06\/07\/kadin-calls-for-less-reliance-on-imported-raw-materials.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">benefiting from the US-China trade war <\/a>as investment opportunities arising from <strong>industrial relocations to other countries, or expansion of factories away from China<\/strong>, has started to flow to the South East Asia region.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, Indonesia has adopted a <strong>strategy to minimize the risks linked with global tensions emerging from the trade war<\/strong>. Indeed, it is expanding its export volume and markets, entering active negotiations for regional and bilateral economic agreements with the likes of Australia, Chile, Argentina, and the European Union.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Technology Roadmap for the Future<\/h3>\n<p>Finally, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indonesia-investments.com\/business\/business-columns\/widodo-launches-roadmap-for-industry-4.0-making-indonesia-4.0\/item8711\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Making Indonesia 4.0 plan<\/a> launched in April 2018 to <strong>encourage Indonesia to develop 4.0 technologies such as 3D design, automation and the use of IoT <\/strong>(Internet of Things).

The Need for More Controls<\/h2>\n<p>Indonesia\u2019s dependence on raw materials still remains a pressing issue. Indeed, <strong>additional investment, technology and expertise are required in the upstream sector<\/strong> to allow the country to reduce its reliance on imported yarn, cotton, dyes, and fabrics.<\/p>\n<p>Although more than 80% of synthetic fiber and rayon produced locally &#8211; and the numbers are expected to grow in the coming years &#8211; <strong>almost all of the country\u2019s cotton is currently imported<\/strong> from America, Brazil and Australia, leaving Indonesia vulnerable to globally fluctuating prices.<\/p>\n<p>This is why <strong>it is essential to make sure the raw materials imported to Indonesia are of the highest standard<\/strong>.
