Boeing and Indonesia: A Long-Standing Partnership
Boeing has been a strong partner of Indonesia’s aerospace industry for more nearly 75 years. The relationship with the Republic of Indonesia dates back to 1949 when Garuda Indonesia, the country’s national carrier, began operations flying special transports with a Douglas DC-3.
Today, Boeing’s airplanes serve as a backbone for the country’s airlines. The manufacturer has played a pivotal role in supporting the development of the nation’s aerospace and defense capabilities.
This collaboration has encompassed various facets, including training, supply chain development, and industry partnerships.
In addition to its direct involvement in the aviation sector, Boeing has made substantial contributions to Indonesian communities.
With a strong focus on sustainability, workforce development, health and wellness, early education, and humanitarian efforts, Boeing has channeled over $8.5 million in charitable contributions and grants.
This not only reflects Boeing’s commitment to the nation but also its dedication to creating a positive and lasting impact on Indonesian society.
