The Business and Investment Forum, held on April 24, 2026, provided a crucial opportunity for the cities of Ternate and Tidore Islands to showcase their talents on the national stage. As part of the “Discover the Natural Treasure Ternate Tidore” series, the forum was not merely a promotional event but also a concrete step for local governments in undertaking economic transformation. With a vision aligned with the spirit of APEKSI, both cities affirmed their commitment to shifting from shipping raw materials to downstream processing, producing commodities such as nutmeg and cloves, and creating added value that directly impacts local community well-being.<\/p>\n

The Ternate and Tidore City Governments presented valuable opportunities in the blue economy and sustainable tourism sectors, attracting potential investors. With abundant marine potential and a rich history as hubs of the global spice route, both cities offered environmentally friendly and community-based investment concepts. Strategic projects ranging from the development of the fish processing industry to marine ecotourism were comprehensively presented, demonstrating that Ternate and Tidore are poised to become new economic drivers in Eastern Indonesia with the support of collaborative, transparent regulations.<\/p>\n

The Chairman of APEKSI expressed his strong appreciation for this initiative as a concrete example of collaboration among city governments to encourage regional investment. This forum demonstrates that Indonesian cities can be globally competitive if they can package local potential with a strong, sustainable narrative. With the conclusion of this business forum, it is hoped that a solid strategic partnership will be established among the government, the private sector, and the community to realize Ternate and Tidore as centers of independent, internationally competitive maritime economic growth.<\/p>\n
