BANDUNG: Yemani Vice President Abdooraboo Mansoo expressed his
interest in buying products from state-owned aircraft
manufacturer PT Dirgantara Indonesia during his visit to the
company on Friday.

The vice president showed interest in Dirgantara's CN 235 and
N 250 planes as well as its helicopters, said Edwin Sudarmo, the
state company's president. The company, he said, would follow up
on Mansoo's inquiries by sending a team to Yemen.

Mansoo said he had often heard of Indonesia's progress in
aerospace technology and was pleased to see it firsthand in
Bandung.

Also in Bandung, the vice president earlier visited state-
owned armaments producer PT Pindad, where he said Indonesia also
displayed prowess in the weapons industry. -- Antara
