He said during the visit, President Jokowi will be accompanied by the foreign affairs minister, coordinating minister for economy, trade minister, chief of the Capital Investment Coordinating Board, and chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission.
At least nine memoranda of understanding (MoUs) will be inked between the governments of Indonesia and South Korea during the visit.
