On Sept. 26, 2013, Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa of Indonesia at the UN headquarters, New York.

Wang Yi said that China attaches great importance to relations with Indonesia. In recent years, China-Indonesia strategic partnership has enjoyed rapid development. The two countries should strengthen planning for exchanges of high-level visits to further uplift the level of bilateral relations and to promote cooperation in all fields.
