The bilateral friendship has been continuously nurtured by generations of leaders and peoples. The visit to Vietnam from January 11-13 by Indonesian President Joko Widodo is expected to deepen Vietnam-Indonesia cooperation. Two-way trade increased from 8.2 billion USD in 2020 to 14.1 billion USD in 2022, and was estimated at over 12 billion USD last year. The two countries are striving for 15 billion USD in two-way trade by 2028. The traditional and trusted friendship is a solid foundation for the Vietnam-Indonesia strategic partnership to look toward the future, and become more substantive and effective in all fields.
