Jakarta – In a strategic move to strengthen Indonesia’s national healthcare services, the Daya Anagata Nusantara Investment Management Agency (Danantara Indonesia) is actively exploring cooperation opportunities with international partners, particularly from South Korea. This initiative aims to advance the country’s healthcare industry through technology transfer, service enhancement, and the integration of more modern systems.
Danantara Indonesia’s Chief Investment Officer (CIO), Pandu Sjahrir, stated that the agency is offering joint venture (JV) schemes based on equal ownership shares.
“We are offering a 50:50 joint venture scheme, in which South Korea can contribute in areas such as diagnostics, medical advances, and high-end clinics,” Pandu said.
Pandu further explained that the partnership will be managed under a dedicated entity named Danantara Healthcare Company, which aims to consolidate the country’s healthcare services under one umbrella.
“We can execute this through Danantara Healthcare Company. We are building a healthcare business that merges all state-owned hospitals into a single entity. This is how we can collaborate effectively,” he explained.
He emphasized that the choice of South Korea as a strategic partner is deliberate, as the country is known for its advanced healthcare system and high quality of life among its population. This collaboration is expected to deliver substantial benefits for Indonesia through knowledge and technology transfer.
“South Korea is a country with high life expectancy and quality of life, and such a partnership can bring valuable insights and healthcare knowledge to Indonesia,” Pandu noted.
He also underscored the strategic importance of the healthcare sector as a long-term national development priority.
“Healthcare is one of the key sectors we need to focus on. Through healthcare, we can also gain knowledge and value transfer,” he affirmed.
Through this collaboration, Danantara seeks not only to foster growth in Indonesia’s healthcare industry but also to build a strong foundation for improving public welfare. The combination of local strengths and global technology is seen as the key to creating healthcare services that are high-quality, affordable, and accessible across the country.
This initiative marks Danantara Indonesia’s commitment to delivering tangible transformation through strategic investments that serve the public interest. By opening the door to global partnerships, Danantara reinforces the belief that developing the healthcare sector is an integral part of the broader vision for a Progressive Indonesia.
