镍矿堆积如山，企业纷纷关门，印尼涨税逼走外资，国家利益谁护航

Group 1 - The core issue lies not in the nickel mines themselves or the presence of foreign investment, but in policy choices that determine whether the value of resources remains in the country [13] - Indonesia possesses nearly 60% of the world's underground nickel reserves, yet the reality is that foreign capital has extracted the core value chain, leaving local workers with low-skill jobs and half-finished factories [4] - The nickel industry, which should be a stronghold for Indonesia, has not yielded the expected benefits from the battery sector, with only two local battery factories contributing less than 0.4% of global capacity [6] Group 2 - President Prabowo's policies have led to significant budget cuts, including a $19 billion reduction in public works funding, resulting in increased local taxes and public discontent [3] - The establishment of the Danantara sovereign fund aims to centralize control over state-owned enterprises, but raises concerns about transparency and accountability [9] - Education spending is only 2.3% of GDP, while a significant portion of this budget is consumed by parliamentary salaries, indicating a neglect of long-term capacity building [6] Group 3 - The focus on short-term political gains has compromised long-term talent development and public infrastructure, leading to a situation where immediate benefits are prioritized over sustainable growth [8] - Environmental costs are significant, with Indonesia's nickel industry producing carbon emissions 7 to 10 times higher than the global average, and the lack of skilled workers and technology hampers effective emission reduction [11] - Attracting foreign investment should not equate to relinquishing control; the sovereign fund can be a tool or a trap, and without transparency and accountability, it risks becoming a means of governance that harms national interests [14]
