Jakarta, Indonesia (AHN) - Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and his Indonesian counterpart Susilo Bambang Yudhyono agreed to strengthen cooperation on biofuels production.
During Silva's state visit in the world's largest Islamic nation, the two leaders signed a pact on bio-ethanol production and technology.
The agreement would see the countries exchange experts to share knowledge on biofuels. A delegate from Indonesia is expected to be sent to Brazil by the end of the year.
