“ We’ ve got more sites available in Jakarta. That’ s the other hub where most of Indonesia’ s data centre build-out is,” says Kah Jin.“ We definitely hope to expand and leverage that. Jakarta has a lot of power, we’ ve got land and we’ ve got water, so that’ s a potent combination.”
The Jakarta strategy extends beyond individual facility development to creating purpose-built data centre industrial parks that could provide economies of scale and attract multiple operators to shared locations.
“ We are developers doing our own industrial park, and we hope to build a data centre industrial park that will cater more to data centres, akin to what you see elsewhere,” says Kah Jin.“ We hope to replicate that model in Jakarta and definitely hope to grow with Gaw Capital to build more and meet more of our customers’ needs.”
The partnership model that enabled success in Batam could be replicated across Indonesia’ s fragmented market, where local expertise remains essential for navigating regulatory requirements and establishing operational relationships.
“ From our perspective at Gaw Capital, we’ re very excited about the partnership, and we think that there’ s a lot that we can do together in Indonesia,” says Nicholas.
