Looking forward to the Australia Indonesia Business Council (AIBC) 2024 conference next week in Sydney. Under the theme “The Time is Now/ Sekarang Waktunya!” attendees will explore the current sentiment in Indonesia that makes it ripe for partnerships and growth to benefit both Indonesia and Australia. According to the Australia–Indonesia Development Partnership Plan 2024–2028 (DPP), Indonesia plans to grow and diversify its economy to achieve high-income country status by 2045, while transitioning to renewable energy and building resilience to the impacts of climate change. It envisages an economy that provides more stable and higher-paying jobs, and reduces inequality and vulnerability. The Australian Government is supporting this agenda with investment funds; major infrastructure projects are underway; renewable energy is high on the agenda; new food regulations are coming into effect; Australian universities are leading the way with a strong presence; and, there is a strong demand for Australian healthcare infrastructure. AIBC2024 is the place to be if you are wanting to hear from those who are seizing these opportunities. Our Indonesia office was established a few years ago with the specific aim to support Australian companies build robust licence to operate in Indonesia, across ASEAN and beyond, working alongside our teams in Singapore and Thailand. See you at #AIBC2024 in Sydney, Nov 11-14, 2024. #australia #Indonesia #ASEAN

#Indonesia has the laxest #sustainablefinance classification system in #Asia. According to Ramnath N. Iyer, IEEFA's Sustainable Finance Lead, Asia, the Indonesian #taxonomy contradicts prevailing standards and risks losing credibility in international sustainable finance if such financing is classified as green or transition finance. The taxonomies of #Malaysia and the #Philippines also do not follow any quantitative emissions criteria, making for ambiguous interpretations. Singapore and Thailand have the most comprehensive and stringent classification. "While the diversity of approaches reflects each country’s unique contexts, it also presents significant challenges for interoperability and consistency. A unified framework that aligns with international standards is crucial for fostering a sustainable financial ecosystem in the region," says Iyer. https://lnkd.in/gCM2sewZ #energy #sustainability #climatefinance
