Indonesia to deepen economic relations with Nigeria
Indonesia has promised to deepen its economic relations with Nigeria to achieve meaningful growth.
Usra Harahap, Ambassador of Indonesia to Nigeria, said this while briefing journalists on Tuesday in Abuja.
Mr Harahap said, “Our main focus is on the economic relations; we have made lots of effort to introduce, promote, as well as improve the bilateral economic relations of the two countries.
“Every year we organise Nigerian Businessmen to come to the Trade Expo Indonesia (TEI) and this year it will be held in October 2022.
“In the tourism sector, Indonesia in March 2022, already uplifted the quarantine policy for foreign visitors and recently introduced and opened the “Bali Warm Up Vacation”.
“In this connection, we invite Nigerians to come to Indonesia to enjoy tourism attractions in various places.
“In Education we always disseminate the information of scholarships offered by the Indonesian Government, such as Partnership Developing countries (KNB) and other scholarships offered by Universities in Indonesia.”
The envoy urged Nigerians to cease the opportunity to apply for such scholarship, adding that both countries had measures in place to further strengthen economic cooperation between them.
