Last week, Apple faced significant challenges in Indonesia, leading to a ban on their iPhone 16 series and Apple Watch Series 10 due to unfulfilled local investment commitments. Specifically, the regulation requires companies to ensure that 40% of their products’ content is sourced locally.

Responding swiftly, Bloomberg News has revealed that Apple plans to open a $10 million factory in Bandung, Indonesia. This venture, in collaboration with Yageo Corporation, aims to produce various accessories and components for Apple products.
