Indonesia and Jordan have developed complementary relationships in terms of economy in order to develop their bilateral cooperation which has been established since decades ago. This was stated by Jordan Ambassador to Indonesia, H.E. Walid Al Hadid in a special interview with RRI World Service, Voice of Indonesia in relation with Jordan Independence Day which falls on May 25th. Ambassador Hadid said that the two countries’ economic relation is complimentary rather than competing each other. Jordan exports the products that Indonesia does not have, and on the other side, it imports products that Jordan does not produce. To boost the two countries’ economic cooperation, Ambassador Hadid invites Indonesia investors to invest in his country.

“I here invite Indonesian investor to come to Jordan to invest  in Jordan to have mutual cooperation with their counterpart  to consider Jordan as their launching pad to Europe to North Africa, Africa in general, to Gulf states and the world in general. Energy is open, water is open, tourism is open for investment, IT sector, industrial sector that is why we divided the country into several development zone,” said Walid Al Hadid.

Ambassador Walid Al Hadid further stated that in 2016, Indonesia-Jordan trade volume almost reached $260 million dollars. He believes that the two countries have a potential to increase the number to double or even triple in the years to come. To reach it, Indonesia and Jordan launched a “business council”  last year, which will work as a vehicle to boost investment from both countries. (VOI/DP/RHM)
