Istana Al Husseiniya, Amman, Kerajaan Yordania Hasyimiyah
Your Majesty King Abdullah II,
My dear brother, friend,
Assalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
Distinguished leaders of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan,
I remember many, many years ago we were younger then, Your Majesty, we are still young at heart, but we were younger then, I can not forget I was received by your great father [and] by yourself. Actually, during, I would say my darkest days personally, you stood by me and you never doubted my friendship.
Jordan has long been a good friend of Indonesia and we consider ourselves always in solidarity with you. You, we consider as a frontline state in protecting the interests of the Palestinian people. As you know, Indonesia strongly supports the right of the Palestinian people to be independent, to have its own state. Although we also now would like to reiterate, Indonesia continues to support an independent Palestinian state, but we must also recognize Israel’s right to existence and their legitimate needs for security.
Our relationship is continuing and I am very happy today that we enhance our relationship. I also would like to applaud, Your Majesty, your wise and great leadership of Jordan in these difficult times has brought Jordan this far. And, we are happy that you offered to continue this cooperation and we would like to enhance this cooperation.
You have advanced technology in the field of agriculture and we would like to benefit from that. I brought my Minister of Agriculture.
