"This kind of activity has the potential to encourage manufacturing developments in the country," he said.
On his working visit to Japan, Agus also met with the Chairman of The Japan External Trade Organization (Jetro) Ishiguro Norihiko to discuss optimizing industrial cooperation between Indonesia and Japan through Jetro research.
According to Agus, the targeted sectors are mainly related to small and medium industries, decarbonization issues and a green economy.
"We hope that Jetro, as an organization under the Japanese government that is moving to promote trade and investment promotion, can become a facilitator for companies in Indonesia to enter into partnership agreements with Japanese companies within the framework of a green economy," he added.
