JAKARTA — Taiwan and Indonesia are economically complementary to each other and should strengthen their cooperation, a special envoy of Indonesian President Joko Widodo said Thursday.

Ang Tjeon Ming, founder of Jakarta-based Mayapada Group, who visited Taiwan earlier this week, told CNA that Indonesia began trading with Taiwan earlier than it did with China, and that it is reasonable for high-paying Taiwan to cooperate with Indonesia, which provides huge low-cost labor resources.

He said Taiwan has taken the right path by launching its “New Southbound Policy” targeting Southeast Asian countries.

Possible areas of economic cooperation between Taiwan and Indonesia include fishery, finance, manufacturing, medicine, technology and tourism, he said.

According to the business tycoon, Jokowi attaches great importance to Taiwan and is willing to receive every investor from Taiwan.     [FULL  STORY]
