But Tour de Indonesia is the only one which achieved UCI 2.1 status.

The main sponsor of the then-named Tour d'Indonesia from 2003 to 2006 was Dji Sam Soe 234, a cigarette brand produced by Philip Morris International also called Philip Morris Racing.

In 2007 Tour d'Indonesia was cancelled due to lack of funding and failure to attract a sponsor.

In 2008 the tour was held again sponsored by Speedy broadband access of Telkom.

Until the 2010 edition Speedy remained as official sponsor of this bicycle race.
