Meanwhile, European Union Ambassador to Indonesia, Vincent Piket said, West Java province has a lot of potential and trade that can be developed to improve business relations between Indonesia and the European Union.

According to him, West Java is located in the most dynamic province with extraordinary economic growth and rapid technological growth.

“This is an extraordinary opportunity to exchange, whether related to trade, technology, know-how or skills as well as investment from Europe to West Java,” said Vincent.

In addition, the European Union, continued Vincent, is Indonesia’s fourth largest export market and the third largest source of imports.

According to him, the economic movement between Indonesia and the European Union is still far below its potential considering that only 11-12 percent of EU investment in ASEAN goes to Indonesia. (T/RE1)
