Signing of Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between OMNI Neo Tech Inc., and PT Narofel Unggul Energy

Taipei, August 31, 2024 – The Indonesian Economic and Trade Office (KDEI) in Taipei, through its Investment Division, facilitated the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between OMNI Neo Tech Inc. and PT Narofel Unggul Energy. The MoU signing ceremony was held at the Indonesia Exhibition Center, KDEI Taipei, and opened by KDEI Head, Iqbal S. Shofwan. In his remarks, Iqbal stated that the MoU aligns with the Indonesian government’s vision to achieve zero carbon emissions by 2060. Through this collaboration, OMNI and Narofel will jointly develop investment and business models in the field of Multi-Business Forestry as part of mitigation actions to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Indonesia. Iqbal also expressed his hope that the MoU would soon be followed by a Cooperation Agreement (PKS) to be signed by both parties during the Trade Expo Indonesia (TEI) in October 2024.

In addition to representatives from OMNI Neo Tech Inc. and PT Narofel Unggul Energy, the signing ceremony was also attended by representatives from the Indonesian Forestry Entrepreneurs Association (APHI). APHI Chairman Dwisuryo Indroyono Soesilo, who witnessed and delivered a speech at the event, welcomed the MoU, highlighting its potential to make a significant environmental contribution not only to Indonesia but also globally. He also expressed optimism that the collaboration between OMNI and Narofel would contribute positively to Indonesia’s development.


The MoU was signed by Raymond Hsu, CEO of OMNI Neo Tech Inc., and Agung Gunarto, representing PT Narofel Unggul Energy, witnessed by KDEI Head, APHI Chairman, Head of KDEI Investment Division, and Head of KDEI Trade Division. The agreement aims to support mitigation actions to achieve Indonesia’s GHG emission reduction targets as outlined in its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) and Indonesia’s FOLU Net Sink 2030. In addition to reducing GHG emissions, the MoU will support Indonesia’s national programs, particularly those related to food and renewable energy.


“The signing of the MoU between PT Narofel and OMNI Neo for collaboration in forest and land rehabilitation in Indonesia for carbon storage and sequestration marks the initiation of forest carbon credit investment from Taiwan to Indonesia. The MoU has also received full support from APHI, most of whose members hold forest concessions that can be developed and partnered with investors, especially from Taiwan,” said Eko Wijanarko, KDEI Investment Division Head.


Eko further explained that investment in this field aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, the Aichi Biodiversity Targets, efforts to combat land degradation, and various international conventions. It also reflects the Indonesian government’s commitment to these global initiatives and aligns with the Indonesia’s FOLU Net Sink 2030 national program as stipulated in Presidential Regulation No. 98 of 2021.
