V. Mainland China's investments in Indonesia
Although the economic relations between China and Indonesia had made big
progresses comprehensively in last decades, bilateral trade had been occupied big
portion and mutual investment remains relative small in the size of their economic
relations, nay, developed non-symmetrical. Indonesia's investments in China are
nearly 20 times more than China's investments in Indonesia. Indonesia began investing
in China in 1984. According to Chinese government statistics, Indonesia's investments
in China totalled up to 970 contract numbers with contract value of US$ 2.024 billions
till March of 2003. On the other hand, China has opened in Indonesia 60 non-trading
joint ventures and enterprises under joint management, with their investment totalling
US$ 0.27 billions, which Chinese investments reach US$ 0.163 billions till March
2003 including 18 service enterprises with value of US$ 0.105 billions, 39 processing
enterprises with value of US$ 34.92 million, and 3 fishing enterprises with value of
US$ 23.31 million (Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China 2004).
Total Chinese investments this year is about US$ 1.5 billion. Previously, it was only
US$ 300 million.

China's investments in Indonesia are mainly resources-oriented and market-oriented
investments. investasi.

For China, Indonesia are natural resources supplier and big potential
market because Indonesia is with 0.21 billion populations and abundant in natural
resources such as oil and gas, mineral, wood, palm oil and so on which are badly
needed by China. China is more and more shortage of natural resources with rapidly
economic growth. pertumbuhan ekonomi. Petroleum, in particular, is becoming a cause for
concern. China'soil
consumption last year hit 245 million tones, making it the world's second biggest
consumer of oil after America. In 2020, it is expected to become the world'sbiggest oil
importer, with foreign oil resources making up 60 per cent of its total consumption. To Untuk
supplement its diminishing resources, China should look towards South-east Asia, a
precious land where China can obtain rich resources. Indonesia, for instance, has rich
mineral and forest resources, as well as oil reserves amounting to about 120 billion
barrels. In resources-oriented investments aspect, there are huge mainland China’s
invests in oil and gas exploration. CNOOC Ltd is a state-owned China National
Offshore Oil Corp., China's third largest oil producer after No.1 PetroChina and No.2
Sinopec. In January of 2002, CNOOC, which has been expanding aggressively outside
China, inked its largest overseas deal worth $585 million for the Indonesian oil

British BG's shares in Muturi Ltd at price of US$ 9.81 million and CNOOC became
the biggest stockholder of Muturi Ltd whose share in Mutri Ltd rose from 44.0 percent
to 64.77 percent and whose share in Tangguh LNG plant in Papua rose from 12.5
percent to 16.96 percent.

In April of 2002, China's largest oil company, PetroChina

recent years has taken place in the oil and gas sectors, valued at about US$ 1 billion. In Dalam
market-oriented investments aspect (in terms of processing manufacture), mainland
China's light industry such as household electrical appliances and motorcycles faces
big challenge of relative overcapacity of productivity, but has strong competitiveness
in terms of price. These enterprises have to find foreign markets to satisfy their
overcapacity and Indonesia is just suitable market. For instance, in electronic sector,
many well-known brands in China, like Cang Hung, Kang Cia and TCL, are marketed
and invest in Indonesia. Bicycle manufacturers have also opened spare parts plants in
Indonesia, like Jia Ling, Lif Fan, Chen Zhen and Pian Ma.
Indonesian-Chinese businessmen welcome investments from China and want to play

Chinese who attended The Third Overseas Chinese Forum Worldwide

held in
Beijing on 15-18 July 2004 expressed their willing that they want to act as a good
partner and play bridge role in establishment of China-ASEAN FTA and in the process
of Chinese enterprises 'going out'. Famous Chinese-Indonesians like Mr. Lin Wenjing
(president director of SALIM GROUP), Mr. The Ning King (Chairman of ARGO
MANUNGGAL GROUP) and Mr. Alim Markus (president director of MASION
GROUP) attended this forum. Mr. Lin Wenjing made a speech on Ethnic Chinese
businessmen Advantages in the Process of Establishment of China-ASEAN FTA. He Dia
said that ethnic Chinese businessmen posses four advantages as follows: first, having
strong economic capacity; second, having deep influence in local and internal; third,
interested in taking part in FTA; fourth, having more experience in domestic and
international investment. In fact, many overseas Chinese businessmen invest in
mainland of China in one hand and act as cooperate partner of China's enterprises in
Indonesia. Indonesia. For instance, MASION GROUP once built a plant in hometown Fujian
province, and established three joint ventures that are Pt. Shanghai Masion Oleo
Chemical Industry, PT. Shanghai Masion Tooth Paste Industry and PT. Shanghai Menculik
Maspion Printing Ink Industry with Chinese enterprises. To succeed in overseas market,
Mr. Oei Hong Leong suggested five steps for Chinese firms to take: establish a
domestic presence first as a back-up; groom daring and visionary corporate leaders;
seek overseas partners, cooperate with other Chinese firms instead of engaging in price
wars; and integrate the efforts of overseas Chinese firms locally when China’s
investments go out abroad (Chan 2004).
Although Chinese investment in Indonesia is still small, it is tendency to increase. That Itu

is because: 1) apart from the need for resources, Chinese firms may promote
cooperation with Indonesian counterparts in the areas of agriculture, technology,
finance, communications, trade and services. As UNCATED stated, China is not only a
major receiver of foreign direct investment but also is gradually turning into an
exporter of capital. Statistics from UNCATD show that China's direct overseas
investment exceeded US$ 35 billion in 2003, covering more than 160 countries and
regions. daerah. 2) China's openness enters a new stage that the model of capital flow changes
from single-way inflow of capital to double-way flow of Capital. Moreover, China are
upgrading its industrial structure and integrate its economy into globalization, more
and more enterprises including state-owned and private enterprises go abroad to
investment for seeking resources, market, efficiency. 3) The establishment of
China-ASEAN FTA will be helpful to promote China's investment in Indonesia. FTA FTA
requires member countries to simplify FDI application and liberalize FDI system. It Ini
makes mutual investment between China and Indonesia easier and increase. 4) 4)
Indonesia begins to pay more attention to attract China's investments. Indonesia will Indonesia

and corruption, in particular, are be strongly blamed by Indonesia entrepreneurs and
foreign entrepreneurs, which is one reason why FDI in Indonesia transfer to invest in
other countries. negara lainnya.
In addition, China should pay attention to the negative impact on Indonesian Chinese
enterprises during the process of strengthening the economic relations between China
and Indonesia and FTA between China and ASEAN. When Chinese products, mainly
labour-intensive products like shoes, apparel and home appliance, pour into Indonesian
market, it may make some enterprises close and workers loose their jobs. Now we can
hear many voices from Indonesia that China's products have flooded in Indonesia and
complain about their low quality.
Any way, mutual investment between China and Indonesia will be more and more
import in the economic relations between two countries.
VI. VI. Conclusion Kesimpulan
The relation between China and Indonesia is always an up to date topic for scholars.
The economic relations between China and Indonesia had not been smooth since
diplomatic relation first set up in 1950. The economic relations between two countries
experienced three stages, namely slowly development in the period of 1950-1966,
indirect trade in the period of 1967-1984 and restoration and rapidly development from
1985 to up to now.
The trade between China and Indonesia includes not only inter-industry trade but also
intra-industry, and intra-industry trade is tendency to increase. The trade value between
two countries is rising rapidly since 1990. Moreover, mutual investment, engineering

infrastructure and resource exploration between them have been increasing. There are Ada
large potency for China and Indonesia to develop bilateral economic relations.
China's access to WTO and the establishment of China-ASEAN FTA are two
important events that exert big impact on China, Indonesia and their economic
relations. hubungan. The positive impact of these two events on China-Indonesia' economic
relations is more than the negative impact of that in long term. Moreover, China’s
access to WTO and the establishment of China-ASEAN FTA bring about opportunities
as well as challenges.
China's investment in Indonesia is so far lower than Indonesia's investment in China,
but it appears rapidly developing trend. China's capital outflow is the result that
