    [JAKARTA] Indonesia has officially launched a long-term visa scheme aimed at attracting foreign investors on Thursday (Jul 25).

    Under this programme, foreign investors with investments of up to US$10 million will receive a 10-year visa to facilitate access to South-east Asia’s largest economy.

    The five-year “Golden Visa” requires individual investors to set up a company worth US$2.5 million, while a 10-year visa needs a US$5 million investment.
