JAKARTA: Peruvian Minister for Foreign Affairs Allan Wagner
Tizon made a brief visit to Indonesia on Friday to enhance
bilateral relations between the two countries.
Tizon arrived Friday morning from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and
held a meeting with his Indonesian counterpart Hassan Wirayuda
immediately.
During the meeting, the two signed three agreements on the
establishment of regular consultation forum, visa-free policy for
diplomats and state officials, and exchange program for
diplomats.
"We also discuss trade and investment issues, because we
believe we could increase our economic ties," Hassan said after
the meeting.
The value of trade relations between two countries stands at
around US$62 million per year.
Tizon also paid a courtesy call to President Megawati
Soekarnoputri before flying back to Peru later Friday. --JP
