He stated that there has been no directive from President Prabowo Subianto to follow the path of Danantara, which has already issued bonds to secure investment funds.
"No, we will see going forward, what the needs are. Capital is still enough; we are investing," Ramadhana told reporters in Jakarta on Wednesday, July 1, 2026. He indicated that INA has several investment plans for this year focusing on key sectors. These include transportation, logistics, infrastructure, digital technology, green and blue economy, health, and advanced materials.

Ramadhana could not yet disclose the specific forms or values of these planned investments, as discussions with investors are ongoing. "There are many listed companies too, so when they invest, it must be disclosed. So, we have to maintain confidentiality," he said. In contrast, Danantara has issued Patriot Bonds and global bonds, with their offerings legally protected under Indonesian law.
