Chinese and Indonesian firms will sign trade deals worth more than $10 billion on Sunday, President Prabowo Subanto said as he met with his counterpart Xi Jinping in Beijing.
Prabowo, who is on his first foreign trip since his swearing-in last month, said ties between China and Indonesia were getting “stronger and stronger,” according to a pool report from Saturday’s reception. Xi said Prabowo’s decision to visit China for the first time reflected the Indonesian leader’s emphasis on developing relations between the two sides.
Xi and Prabowo signed several documents and memorandums of understanding between their respective governments. They include overlapping claims between the two countries in fisheries and joint development of oil and gas in the maritime sector as well as in maritime security, and deeper cooperation in the blue economy, water and mineral resources and green minerals.
