Mexican president to visit RI

JAKARTA: Mexican President Vicente Fox Quesada is planning to visit Indonesia in October next year, before attending the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in Bangkok, Thailand.

The statement was made after Quesada received the credentials of Indonesia's new ambassador to Mexico Ahwil Luthan last week, the Indonesian embassy in Mexico said in a statement Tuesday.

The Mexican president hoped that both countries could expand trade and diplomatic ties during the meeting next year.

The Mexican president also expressed hope that Mexico would import liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Indonesia. Currently, Mexico imports LNG from South American.

During the function, the Mexican president extended his support to Indonesia for its fight against terrorism. --Antara
