Indonesia to expand bilateral ties with the East Asian nation plans to urge Japan to review the economic partnership agreement. The Indonesia-Japan economic partnership agreement (IJ-EPA) was implemented by both countries since 2008 and after a five-year period, both parties have been given the chance to re-evaluate the execution.
Indonesia claims it has benefited less than expected from the partnership and has requested a review several times, including the latest effort made during the term of former trade minister Muhammad Lutfi.
