Since 2007, the number of foreign workers (TKA) from China has dominated. Data from the Ministry of Manpower states that the number of Chinese TKAs until the end of 2018 reached 32,209 workers, or 33.79% of the total number of TKAs (95,335 workers). This number increased by 7,405 workers or 29.85% from the previous year.

Every year, the number of Chinese TKAs has grown, with 2018 showing the largest growth in the last seven years. This growth is driven by the abundance of technology originating from China, requiring expert personnel to operate it. Furthermore, increasingly easier licensing procedures have also contributed to the increase in foreign workers.

The increase in the number of Chinese TKAs is accompanied by an increase in investment from China. For the past three years, China has consistently been among the top three largest foreign investors in Indonesia, behind Singapore and Japan.
