The Iranian Deputy Industry, Mine and Trade Minister Hamid Safdel and the Indonesian Deputy Foreign Minister Yuri Thamrin as the representative of Indonesia Exports Development Center’s chairman signed the agreement.
The head of Trade Promotion Organization of Iran (TPOI) put Iran-Indonesia trade value at over one billion dollars over the recent years.
This agreement will promote bilateral trade between Iran and Indonesia by exchanging trade delegations and information, holding exhibitions and signing preferential trade agreement thereafter, Safdel noted.
In February, Indonesian Ambassador to Tehran Dian Wirengjurit has said Jakarta pays no attention to sanctions imposed on the Iranian oil sector, saying it will have no effect on Indonesia’s oil purchase from Iran.
He said Iran is a developed country in terms of infrastructure to the extent that there is potable water, electricity and gas in most parts of the country.
The Indonesian ambassador also called on Iranians to invest in his country.
