Apple's Airtag Factory Fails To Impress Indonesia: iPhone 16 Sales Remain Banned Despite Local Production Plans
According to Indonesia's Industry Minister Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) remains unable to sell its iPhone 16 in Indonesia.
蘋果公司（納斯達克：AAPL）仍無法在印度尼西亞銷售其iPhone 16。
What Happened: Apple has not met Indonesia's domestic content requirements, which stipulate that smartphones sold in the country must include at least 35% locally-made components.
發生了什麼：蘋果未能滿足印度尼西亞的國內內容要求，該要求規定在該國銷售的智能手機必須包含至少35%的本地製造元件。
This rule led to the ban on iPhone 16 sales last year.
這條規則導致了去年對iPhone 16銷售的禁令。
According to Indonesia's Industry Minister Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita, Apple has agreed to establish a facility on Batam Island to produce its AirTag devices.
根據印度尼西亞工業部長阿古斯·古米旺·卡塔薩斯米塔的說法，蘋果已同意在巴淡島建立一個設施來生產其AirTag設備。
However, this does not satisfy the local content criteria for iPhones, reported Reuters.

"There is no basis for the ministry to issue a local content certification as a way for Apple to have the permission to sell iPhone 16 because (the facility) has no direct relations," Agus stated, adding that only phone components would be considered.
阿古斯表示：「該部沒有依據發放本地內容認證，以使蘋果獲得銷售iPhone 16的許可，因爲（該設施）沒有直接關係。」他補充說，只有手機元件將被考慮。
Indonesia's investment minister announced the factory's value at $1 billion, with operations expected to commence next year.
印度尼西亞投資部長宣佈該工廠的價值爲10億美元，預計明年開始運營。
