  • The United Arab Emirates’ (UAE) potential investment in Indonesia’s housing sector will be in the form of business-to-business (B2B) cooperation between Indonesian and UAE entrepreneurs, said the Ministry of Housing and Residential Areas.  In an effort to support collaboration between the two countries in B2B, the Indonesian government directed state-owned companies to prepare passive land that can be used as the location of the investment project.
