Yang is scheduled to meet several senior Indonesian officials during his visit. '€œAt the invitation of Indonesian Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Djoko Suyanto, State Councillor Yang Jiechi will pay a visit to Indonesia and co-chair with Minister Suyanto the fourth meeting of the bilateral dialogue mechanism at the deputy prime ministerial level from Sept. 18 to 20,'€ Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hong Lei said in a press release in Beijing on Monday.
