According to Asian Aviation, Boeing has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Angkasa Pura Indonesia to explore initiatives aimed at expanding airport capabilities across Indonesia, focusing on improving safety and operational efficiency.
The agreement combines Boeing’s engineering expertise with key initiatives from the Indonesian government on airport operations, say Asian Aviation, adding that Boeing and Angkasa Pura Indonesia will work closely with the Directorate General of Civil Aviation of Indonesia, airlines, airport operators, and other aviation stakeholders to deliver solutions that elevate the country’s aviation sector.
Faik Fahmi, President Director of Angkasa Pura Indonesia said, “Angkasa Pura Indonesia is focused on becoming a world class airport operator with premises, processes, and people that on par with global standards. Airside infrastructure readiness is essential, and we look forward to working with Boeing.”
“Boeing has a long-standing relationship with Indonesia, spanning 75 years, connecting the nation’s 17,000 islands to the world. As one of the world’s largest aviation markets, Indonesia represents a vital growth opportunity for Boeing,” said Zaid Alami, managing director of Boeing Indonesia. “We are committed to supporting Indonesia’s aviation industry and are eager to collaborate with Angkasa Pura Indonesia in finding solutions to safely expand airport operations and capabilities.”
Asian Aviation reports that Boeing has been present in Indonesia since 1949 when Garuda Indonesia, the country’s national carrier, began operations flying special transports with a Douglas DC-3. Today, Boeing’s presence in Indonesia covers commercial aviation, defence, commercial satellites, supply chain, technical training, university collaborations and community impact initiatives across the local industry. Boeing investments in Indonesia have helped grow the local aerospace sector, creating jobs and driving innovation.
