Indonesian President Joko Widodo met with visiting Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Monday to discuss bilateral ties and topics of common concern at the Presidential Palace in Bogor, West Java.

Albanese, along with many other ministers, arrived in Jakarta on Sunday on a three-day visit to explore ways to strengthen bilateral cooperation.

The two leaders met in Bogor at the Botanical Garden, which is located near the Presidential Palace.

Widodo told reporters that he knew Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and that they had met in 2020.

“In general, I reiterate Indonesia’s consistent position that good relations between the two countries can contribute to regional peace and prosperity,” he stated.

“Strategic competition in the region needs to be managed properly to avoid open conflict. A culture of peace and strategic trust needs to be strengthened. We also agreed to strengthen partnerships in the Pacific, particularly in the sectors of climate, fisheries and agriculture,” added the president.
