Bisnis.com, JAKARTA — The United States is set to deepen its involvement in Indonesia’s national energy projects, including the development of oil refineries currently being pushed by the government. This move comes as a response to the country’s imposition of a 32 percent reciprocal import tariff on Indonesian products.
Indonesia hopes that greater US participation in key energy initiatives will lead to an uptick in American exports to the country, potentially prompting President Donald Trump to ease or roll back the tariff policy toward Indonesia.
