Therefore, Indonesia hopes that the Japanese Government and the private sector can support the plan.

"The government also has a commitment map for the energy sector in achieving an Enhanced Nationally Determined Contribution (E-NDC) to achieve a reduction of 358 million tons of CO2," said Agus.
Therefore, Indonesia will work with the support of international partners in developing a comprehensive investment plan to achieve new targets and policies, including plans to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and support the affected communities, including the industrial sector which also contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG).
"We will continue to spur the development of the green industry by prioritizing efficiency and effectiveness of sustainable resource use," said Agus.
