President Prabowo Subianto received letters of credence from eight foreign ambassadors in a ceremony at the Merdeka Palace on Monday that ended a week of public criticism over Jakarta’s delayed accreditation.The ceremony saw envoys from Palestine, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, South Korea, the Czech Republic, Greece, Lebanon and Saint Lucia formally begin their time in Indonesia, after reports said that some unnamed incoming envoys had been waiting for up to eight months to submit their letters.
“The President received the letters of credence of eight newly appointed ambassadors. On this occasion, the envoys expressed their commitment to strengthening bilateral relations and expanding cooperation with Indonesia across a range of sectors,” a statement from the Presidential Secretariat said.
