UAE and Indonesia 45 years of cooperation strategic relationships and growing partnerships

H.E. Husin Bagis

Ambassador of the Republic of Indonesia to the United Arab Emirates

Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Republic of Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates in 1976, we continuously witness the growing, closer ties between the two countries.

Exchange of visits and frequent   interactions between leaders of the two nations, numerous governmental and business agreements reached in many sectors of life, as well as the shared views and exchange of supports in international fora, are small evident of the strong relations.

Staying in Abu Dhabi, I personally experience the very close relationship, not merely on official level, but also amongst the people. The spirits of brotherhood are evident in day-to-day interactions between people of the two countries. Thus, I consider Abu Dhabi as my second home.

I believe, the spirit of brotherhood and mutual respect, among others, constitute solid modalities that will contribute to even far stronger relations between the two countries in years to come.
