Fosun Health Group, a subsidiary of Fosun Pharmaceutical, said it plans to build its first overseas hospitals in Indonesia amid a push by Chinese healthcare companies to expand abroad.

The announcement underscores Indonesia’s appeal – home to the world’s fourth-largest population of 287 million – as Beijing encourages its healthcare sector to “go global”.

Fosun Health planned to establish “several hospitals” in Indonesia, CEO Frank Hu Hang told delegates at the South China Morning Post’s China Conference: Southeast Asia 2026, in Jakarta on Tuesday.

“We’ve signed term sheets with local partners, but not yet formally signed any contracts,” Hu told the SCMP. He did not disclose how many hospitals would be built or where they would be located.

Fosun was also exploring opportunities to work with local distributors to sell its products in Indonesia, as well as expanding cooperation with local manufacturers, he said.
