00:05 Minister of Communication and Informatics, Menko Minfo Budi Aristya was informed

00:09 CEO of Apple, Tim Cook, responded positively to the request of Indonesia

00:13 to present a manufacturing factory or manufacturing of Apple products in Indonesia.

00:18 This was revealed at the Jakarta Ministry of Communications on 17 April

00:23 when Menko Minfo shared the results of the meeting between CEO of Apple, Tim Cook,

00:27 with President Joko Widodo at the Jakarta Presidential Palace this morning.

00:31 Budi said the request was proposed to increase Indonesia's role in the global supply chain

00:37 because currently there are only two components produced in Indonesia for Apple products.

00:42 This is far from compared to Vietnam which has produced 72 components.

00:47 Tim Cook has said, because this is a global supply chain,

00:53 so we can produce 10 or 30 components,

00:58 we can export the components.

01:02 That's the principle.

01:03 Because one product can produce hundreds of components.

01:06 If we control the production, it can be exported.

01:09 If the world wants to produce the components, it will be produced in Indonesia.

01:13 That's the principle that Tim Cook has conveyed to the President.

01:17 So we should not only market,

01:20 we should also take part in the technological advancement process in this world.

01:26 Budi said Apple users in Indonesia are quite large

01:29 and based on Ministry of Industry data,

01:32 Indonesia imported 2 billion US dollars of Apple products in 2023.

01:37 Budi also said in the meeting, the President also invited Tim Cook

01:41 to participate in the Smart City investment at the IKN.
