Beijing (ANTARA News) - Visiting Trade Minister Mari Elka Pangestu said Indonesia`s trade representatives overseas should be able to promote and find buyers for the country`s export products in the international markets in relation with the global economic crisis.
"The role and function of Indonesia`s trade representative offices abroad is getting more important as they should be able to promote and market Indonesian export commodities," Pangestu said here on Saturday.
She made the statement at a coordination meeting on international trade cooperation with Indonesian representative offices abroad organized by her ministry in Beijing on Saturday.
Present on the occasion were Indonesian ambassador to China Sudrajat, a number of Indonesian Trade Ministry officials, and the heads of 50 Indonesian trade representative offices in Asia , Africa, and the Middle East.
Pangestu said the chief of Indonesian trade representative offices abroad should be able to spearhead the success of the country`s export commodity`s promotion and market.
