In this spirit of harmony, Indonesia sees World Expo 2025 Osaka as a platform for promoting international collaboration, guided by the principles of People, Planet, Prosperity, Peace, and Partnership. We welcome cooperation in clean energy, sustainable infrastructure, digital transformation, and tourism—key pillars in Indonesia’s green economic transformation toward Golden Indonesia 2045,” said Minister Pratikno.

“We take great pride in supporting and being part of the Indonesia Pavilion at World Expo 2025 Osaka. Astra’s participation is expected to serve as a strategic opportunity to showcase Indonesia’s rich cultural heritage and innovation to the world, while also fostering interactions and exchanges between Indonesian representatives and pavilion visitors.
