In an effort to accelerate the construction of the city, Indonesia has announced a number of new incentives for foreign companies to invest in its new capital. In the center of the Indonesian archipelago, on the island of Borneo, is the province of East Kalimantan, where Nusantara is currently being carved out of the red earth.
A new policy that was announced on March 6 states that companies who invest a minimum of 10 billion rupiah ($650,745) in new capital are eligible for a corporate tax holiday of up to 100%. The duration of these tax holidays differs by industry, but companies building Nusantara's public services and infrastructure will enjoy the longest tax holidays until 2035.
