Prabowo’s Brother’s Tin Factory Set to Be Inaugurated in July 2025

JAKARTA — The new tin factory owned by Hashim Djojohadikusumo, the brother of President-elect Prabowo Subianto, is slated for official inauguration in July 2025, marking a significant milestone in Indonesia’s mining and industrial development. The state-of-the-art facility, located in a key mining area rich in tin ore, is expected to increase the country’s processing capacity and reduce reliance on raw ore exports. The factory’s operations will focus on processing and refining tin into high-purity metal for use in a range of industries, from electronics to packaging and automotive components. The project underscores the growing role of the Djojohadikusumo family in Indonesia’s mining industry and highlights their ongoing expansion into sectors that are strategically important for the country's future economic growth. Officials say the factory will contribute to job creation, foster technology transfer, and boost local economic development, particularly in nearby communities. Government representatives, industry stakeholders, and members of the business community are expected to attend the inauguration ceremony in a show of confidence in the venture’s potential to help drive Indonesia’s economic transformation. The factory's opening is also viewed as a key step in adding value to the country's abundant mineral resources and strengthening its position in the global tin market.
