Rawalpindi: Indonesian Ambassador to Pakistan Adam Tugio this week urged Pakistani businessmen should take advantage of Indonesia’s emerging market.

Adam Tugio said that Indonesia seeks to increase bilateral trade with Pakistan and strengthen trade and business relations.

He said that Indonesia could provide Pakistan with opportunities for trade and economic activities in the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEANs) market with a population of 623 million, which would enhance the growth of trade between the two countries.

During his visit to the Rawalpindi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (RCCI), the envoy said that Pakistan and Indonesia already have a preliminary agreement on the Preferential Trade Agreement (PTA), which has boosted bilateral trade in various sectors. Pakistan has a lot of potential in traditional herbal medicines, he added.

He pointed out that herbal medicines are receiving a very positive response from the world population. The Ambassador said that the Embassy would participate in the Food Festivals and Exhibitions organized by the Chamber.
