WELLINGTON, July 30 (Bernama-Xinhua) -- New Zealand and Indonesia unveiled a plan of action on Tuesday aimed at deepening cooperation and guiding their bilateral relations over the next five years, according to Xinhua.
New Zealand and Indonesia share an important partnership, said New Zealand Foreign Minister Winston Peters following official talks in Auckland with his Indonesian counterpart Retno Marsudi.
The two sides agreed on a dedicated Plan of Action for 2025-2029, which sets a new goal of 6 billion NZ dollars (US$3.54 billion) in annual two-way trade by 2029, replacing the one released in 2020.
Meeting this goal will necessitate even greater trade cooperation, including on halal, Peters said.
"We also agreed to work towards a joint Working Holiday Scheme and closer education cooperation," he said.
