He told the media on Thursday, February 15^th at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Jakarta, that the joint promotion in some potential sectors was one of efforts to realize a better bilateral relationship between Indonesia and Malaysia.

“When I have a meeting with Malaysia Indonesia Business Council I have to say, one way to make a better relationship is through joint promotion. We make twin city for tourism together, we go to a third country, for example to China or Korea. We both introduce our culture. Because, claiming cultures to be its cultures is not good for both countries. Well, both countries promote their culture and also tourism. In trade, we promote our respective trade,” Rusdi Kirana said.
