JAKARTA - Indonesian National Shipowners (INSA) together with the Japan Ship Machinery and Equipment Association (JSMEA) held the Indonesia-Japan Business Matching Forum 2022 in Jakarta, Thursday (17/11/2022).
At least 200 national shipping entrepreneurs will be met with the engine manufacturer and equipment of the ship from the country of America.

In addition, continued Sugiman, national shipping industry players are also exploring the procurement of environmentally friendly ship engines.
"The global trend, including Indonesia, in the future is more environmentally friendly in industries to reduce exhaust emissions. Moreover, the Indonesian government has set net zero emissions in 2050," said Sugiman.
"Some experiments are already running. Some use methanol fuel and ammonia," said Sugiman.
Chairman of JSMEAKinoshita Shigeki said the Business Matching Forum was the third time it was held in Indonesia.
"The goal is to strengthen the collaboration of the shipping industry between the two countries. Moreover, Indonesia is a very important market for the ship's engine industry in Japan.
