“Indonesia appreciates Thailand’s support in fighting discriminatory in CPO sector,” said Foreign Affairs Minister Retno Marsudi who attended the meeting.

Jakarta also praised Bangkok’s support for Indonesia’s rubber so that the commodity price could rise in the international market. “Because we know Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand are the world’s largest producer of rubber,” Retno added.

Indonesia had determined to legally challenge against the EU to the World Trade Organization (WTO). A number of legal firms had been selected to represent the Indonesian government in the dispute stemming from discriminatory acts of the EU on the country’s palm oil.
