Kemana, an AWS partner in Asia, is excited with the expansion of AWS Asia Pacific and the inevitable strong impact this has for our clients in the region.

The region will also add an estimated 10.9 billion dollars over the next 15 years to Indonesia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the company said.

Amazon Web Services, Inc., an Amazon.com, Inc. company, on Tuesday, announced the launch of the AWS Asia Pacific (Jakarta) Region in Indonesia. AWS also released an economic impact study (EIS) estimating that the company’s spending on the construction and operation of the new AWS Asia Pacific (Jakarta) Region will create 24,700 direct and indirect jobs with an estimated 5 billion U.S. dollars in planned investment in the local economy.

“The new AWS Asia Pacific (Jakarta) Region is the latest in a long series of investments that we have made in Indonesia to serve the needs of our growing community of local customers, further deepening AWS’s commitment to accelerate the country’s digital economy,” said Conor McNamara, Managing Director, ASEAN, AWS.
