Indonesia has been selected as the partner nation for the 688 Bauma 2013 construction equipment exhibition from April 15 to 21, 2013 in Munich. This populous country was selected for this as it has major potential for infrastructure investment. It has a population of 238 million, a gross domestic product of US$720 billion US dollars (2010) and is one of the 20 largest economies in the world.

The country’s building industry is booming and in the raw materials sector, too, major investment is scheduled for the medium term – all of which are good reasons why bauma should focus more closely on this economic region and the exciting opportunities it offers for the future.

The aim is to leverage Indonesia’s significant business potential for the international construction machinery, building materials machinery and mining machinery industry.

A co-initiator of the partner country concept of Bauma, along with 3995 Messe München, is the German Engineering Federation, 1331 VDMA (Verband Deutscher Maschinen- und Anlagenbau).

Indonesia’s GDP has after all been growing steadily for years, in 2011 again by 6.2%. At the same time, in 2010, the building industry turned in above-average real growth of 7%. Investment is expanding in almost all areas, project activity is also increasing. By 2025 the government wants to invest $465 billion in expanding the infrastructure, in oil, coal and gas extraction and in the electrification of the country.
