On 23 October 2026, witnessed by the Central Java Provincial Government, Indonesian Police Force and Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, the 2026 Central Java Investment Forum & detikJateng-Jogja Awards Annual Gala concluded grandly at the Batang National Economic Zone.
detikcom is an officially recognized, nationally leading Indonesian online portal widely acknowledged globally as the country’s most visited news platform. According to Reuters Institute research, Alexa web traffic statistics and the platform’s official positioning, detikcom consistently ranks first among Indonesia’s online news media. It is the digital media platform with the widest coverage and highest public recognition across Indonesia. Hosted by detikcom, the detikJateng-Jogja Awards focus on the core economic zones of Central Java and Yogyakarta. The awards select high-ranking government officials, state-owned enterprise giants and benchmark industrial entrepreneurs. As the region’s highest-caliber, most credible and influential annual authoritative government-business award, it recognizes outstanding entities that deliver tangible contributions to regional investment, industrial upgrading and economic development. The awards carry strong endorsement from local authorities and public opinion.
At this gala, Chen Riling, Chairman of Wanxinda Group Indonesia, received the prestigious title of Global Ambassador for Indonesian Industry Promotion (Promotor Promosi Industri Indonesia di Kancah Global) in recognition of its substantial industrial investment, high-quality industrial park operation and achievements in two-way industrial empowerment.
Unlike communications limited within Chinese-speaking circles, this honor transcends Chinese-language public opinion. It constitutes an official public endorsement from Indonesia’s central functional authorities, provincial government and top mainstream media for Wanxinda’s long-term commitment to Indonesia and efforts to empower local industrial development. It also serves as solid proof of Wanxinda’s established influence within Indonesia’s government-business community and industrial market.
The award was officially presented by Fajar Pratama, Deputy Editor-in-Chief of detikcom. On the awards day, Chairman Chen Riling was engaged in Indonesian public welfare disaster relief work for local people’s wellbeing. He specially authorized Ms. Yuan Wanqi, Deputy General Manager of Marketing at Wanxinda Group Indonesia, to attend the ceremony and collect the award on his behalf.
01 Solid Industrial Implementation: Delivering Industrial Commitment Through Genuine Investment
All core data and implementation outcomes featured at the gala are sourced from official special reports by detikcom Indonesia. Contrary to the asset-light operational model prevalent in the industry, Wanxinda has consistently pursued heavy-asset development in Indonesia by rooting itself in real industries, delivering tangible investments to drive regional industrial growth:
Leveraging the industrial platform of the Batang National Economic Zone, the Group has deployed IDR 1.5 trillion of its own investment, accounting for 36% of its total self-funded investment plan of IDR 4.3 trillion. The funds are fully allocated to constructing high-standard factory buildings and upgrading supporting infrastructure within the park to lay a solid foundation for industrial settlement in the region.
Meanwhile, the Group has given full play to its role as an industrial chain leader. Supported by its mature park operation system and premium business environment, it has successfully attracted IDR 2.8 trillion in investment from peer foreign enterprises. This effectively revitalizes industrial resources in the Batang Special Economic Zone. In the long run, Wanxinda will continue to gather upstream and downstream industrial chain resources to build a large-scale, integrated industrial cluster ecosystem and support the industrialization upgrade of Central Java.
02 A Bridge for Two-Way Empowerment: Enabling Indonesian Industries to Go Global
Official reports specifically highlighted Wanxinda’s core value: Under the leadership of Chairman Chen Riling, Wanxinda Group has long been rooted in Indonesia, targeting global markets and drawing primarily on Chinese industrial resources. It continuously promotes Indonesia’s sound investment climate and geographic advantages, building a core bridge connecting high-quality Chinese manufacturing supply chains with Indonesia’s local industrial ecosystem.
The official report cited the exclusive award citation that precisely defines Wanxinda’s core industrial value:
Wanxinda Grup Indonesia di bawah kepemimpinan Chen Riling aktif mempromosikan iklim investasi Indonesia kepada para pengusaha dan investor global, memperkuat citra Indonesia sebagai hub strategis di Asia Tenggara. Lewat Wanxinda Group, Chen menjadi penghubung krusial antara rantai pasok global dengan ekosistem industri dalam negeri.
English interpretation: Under Chen Riling’s leadership, Wanxinda Group Indonesia actively promotes Indonesia’s investment climate to global entrepreneurs and investors, strengthening Indonesia’s reputation as a strategic hub in Southeast Asia. Through Wanxinda Group, Chen acts as a critical link between global supply chains and the domestic industrial ecosystem of Indonesia. Precisely because of this two-way empowerment value, the authorities recognize him as a promoter of Indonesian industry on the global stage.
03 Dual Awards, Double Glory: Government-Enterprise Collaboration Validates Proven Strength
Centered on the theme “Central Java — Indonesia’s Investment Gateway: Synergy among Governments, Investors and Industrial Parks towards Sustainable Economic Growth”, the gala brought together military and government leaders from the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, Central Java Provincial Government, Provincial Police Headquarters and local regency/municipal governments, as well as authoritative representatives from Indonesia’s leading state-owned enterprises, universities and industry champions.
Among numerous government institutions and local industry giants competing at the event, Wanxinda stood out as a representative benchmark foreign enterprise. Meanwhile, the Batang National Economic Zone (KEK Industropolis Batang), home to Wanxinda’s park, concurrently won the Excellence in Governance Award for Smart and Sustainable Industrial Parks. The dual awards jointly attest to the park’s operational capability, compliance framework and development potential.
According to official detikcom Indonesia reports, Central Java has emerged as a prime destination for manufacturing relocation and foreign investment in Indonesia. In 2025, the province recorded total realized investment of IDR 885 trillion, a 28% year-on-year increase, generating more than 320,000 jobs and demonstrating robust regional economic vitality.
04 Rooted in the Land, Empowering Win-Win Collaboration
From substantial real-economy investment and mature park operation to globally-connected industrial empowerment and rooted local social responsibility, Wanxinda’s value extends far beyond simple park development and investment promotion.
We are not only a service provider supporting Chinese enterprises expanding into Indonesia, but also an officially and mainstream-media-accredited two-way industrial facilitator. Moving forward, Wanxinda will continue to build upon the Batang National Economic Zone, capitalizing on national policy incentives and a mature full-spectrum service system. We will accompany more Chinese manufacturing enterprises to expand steadily and establish operations in Indonesia, jointly exploring the trillion-dollar industrial market across Southeast Asia.
Entrepreneurs from all sectors are warmly invited to visit Wanxinda Industrial Park within the Batang National Economic Zone in Indonesia for on-site inspections, and join hands for shared future success!
