Asindo Tech Sets Sights on Central African Republic With $10M Project
PT Asindo Tech intends to invest US$10 million in a facility in the Central African Republic, one of 19 agreements announced after Trade Expo Indonesia 2026. Indonesia's embassy in Cameroon said the deals with Central African nations could be worth about US$60 million. The site, local partner, financing, and start date have not been disclosed.
The Indonesian embassy in Yaoundé reported the plan alongside 19 agreements from Trade Expo Indonesia 2026, held in Tangerang in mid-October. Eleven of those agreements were signed at a business forum that drew 81 delegates from Central Africa. The embassy estimated the Central African deals could total about US$60 million.
Asindo’s separate Cameroon project is a US$15 million tapioca and biogas plant with Nego Titans. A Bangui outlet’s headline called the CAR project a cassava-processing plant, but the full report was inaccessible, so that detail remains unconfirmed. The site, partner, financing and launch date are undisclosed.
If built, the plant could affect cassava growers, processors, factory workers and nearby households by creating a new buyer for a staple crop and possible processing jobs. Because the Central African Republic is landlocked, transport and power costs may shape whether local farmers and consumers benefit or whether the project remains limited. The agreement is preliminary and lacks disclosed financing, site and partner, so its social impact may depend on whether roads, electricity and investment follow.
