Kutai Kartanegara

Kutai Kartanegara is the name of a regency (kabupaten) in East Kalimantan province, Republic of Indonesia. Kutai Kartanegara is also known as the oldest kingdom in Indonesia.

This region is not only rich with natural resources like oil and gas, gold, coal, wood, etc, but also rich with the culture heritage of Kutai and Dayak. Kutai Kartanegara has contributed millions of US dollars to Jakarta and elsewhere from the exploitation of its natural resources.

Despite many Indonesian recognize Kutai Kartanegara as the richest regency in Indonesia, many of its people still live in poverty and backwardness. It's caused by the unbalanced development under Suharto regime in the past.

Nowadays, with the new spirit of regional autonomy and Gerbang Dayaku (new development program in Kutai Kartanegara), this region has been enforcing development in human resources, infrastructure and other supporting facilities.

With all the potentials and its stability, Kutai Kartanegara are welcoming visitors and investors to enter this rich and beautiful region.
