Apple Offers $100M Indonesian Factory to Lift iPhone 16 Ban
苹果提议投资1亿美元建厂以解除iPhone 16禁令
Apple has proposed investing $100 million to establish a manufacturing facility in Indonesia in response to a government-imposed ban on its iPhone 16 models. The ban stems from the tech giant’s failure to meet local investment and content requirements.
苹果公司提议在印度尼西亚投资1亿美元建立制造设施，以应对因未满足当地投资和内容要求而导致的iPhone 16型号禁售。
The Indonesian Ministry of Industry announced that Apple plans to build an accessories and components factory in Bandung, West Java. This proposal significantly increases Apple’s initial $10 million offer. The government has welcomed the investment and scheduled discussions to review the proposal.
印度尼西亚工业部宣布，苹果计划在西爪哇省万隆市建设一个配件和零部件工厂。这一提案远远高于苹果最初提出的1000万美元投资。政府已表示欢迎这一投资，并安排会议讨论该提案。
Last month, Indonesia banned the sale of iPhone 16 models, citing Apple’s inability to meet its mandate that 40% of a device’s components be locally sourced. The same rule also led to a ban on Google’s Pixel phones.
上月，印度尼西亚因苹果未能达到设备组件40%本地化的要求，禁止销售iPhone 16型号。同一规定还导致谷歌Pixel手机被禁售。
During a visit earlier this year by Apple CEO Tim Cook, Indonesia’s then-president Joko Widodo urged the company to establish a manufacturing facility in the country. However, Cook did not make any commitments at the time.
今年早些时候，苹果首席执行官蒂姆·库克访问印尼时，当时的总统佐科·维多多曾敦促苹果在该国建立制造工厂，但库克当时并未作出任何承诺。
Indonesia, with a population of approximately 280 million, represents a significant market for Apple. The country boasts 354 million active mobile phone users, exceeding its population size and highlighting its potential as a major consumer base for smartphone makers.
印尼拥有约2.8亿人口，是苹果的重要潜在市场。该国的活跃手机用户数量达到3.54亿，超过总人口规模，这凸显了其作为智能手机制造商主要消费市场的潜力。
