Xi Jinping - AFP
March 27, p3
President Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo met with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Thursday. After a state welcoming ceremony, the two leaders discussed various bilateral issues and witnessed the signing of several memorandums of understanding (MoU) on the issues of finance, industry, infrastructure, natural disaster management and aerospace.
However, the two leaders apparently did not discuss any specific economic issues leading to more concrete commitments in the short term like those President Jokowi got from his bilateral discussions with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in Tokyo on Monday.
Your comments:
There are much more serious and pressing issues in Indonesia. The whole domestic market is crashing as we speak, retrenchment, higher prices of staple products.
I just hope the government straightens out its priorities. This is going to be an extremely tough year for all of us.

How can Indonesia mediate when it is one of the involved parties? Jokowi lacks gravitas when it is needed. He seems more at home and relaxed on a train than leading a nation.

Indonesia needs infrastructure to see economic growth ' China offers exactly that to its friends.
This is a huge step.
