The Consulate also commends the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the people of Ghana for their dedication to democratic principles and peaceful governance.
The election of H.E. Mahama as President-elect is a reflection ofthe trust and confidence Ghanaians have in his vision and leadership. This victory opens a new chapter of opportunity for Ghana to advance its national agenda, and the Consulate of Indonesia stands ready to collaborate in achieving these goals.
Indonesia and Ghana share a history of strong bilateral relations, underpinned by shared values and aspirations. With Indonesia’s robust economy and extensive expertise in industries such as agriculture, manufacturing, energy, and technology, there is vast potential for mutually beneficial partnerships. The Honorary Consulate is confident that under H.E. Mahama’s leadership, both nations can explore these opportunities to create significant impacts.
Opportunities for Ghana through Indonesia-Ghana Collaboration:
Indonesia, a global leader in agricultural innovation and food processing, can share its expertise to enhance Ghana’s agricultural value chain. Partnerships in this sector will boost productivity, promote food security, and create employment.
With Indonesia’s advancements in renewable energy and sustainable mining practices, Ghana stands to benefit from technology transfers and investment in clean energy projects. This collaboration will support Ghana’s energy transition and infrastructure development.
Expanding trade relations with Indonesia will open access to a market of over 270 million people. The Consulate aims to facilitate business delegations and joint ventures that promote exports and attract investments into key Ghanaian sectors.
Both nations can tap into their rich cultural heritage to promote tourism and strengthen people-to-people connections, fostering goodwill and mutual understanding.
Indonesian institutions and technology hubs can provide scholarships, exchange programs, and technical expertise to Ghanaian students and professionals, advancing human capital development.
The Honorary Consul of Indonesia in Ghana, H.E. Paskal A.B. Rois, reaffirms his commitment to facilitating these opportunities and driving collaboration between Ghanaian and Indonesian entities. The Consulate, in coordination with the Embassy of Indonesia in Abuja, is also eager to support a state visit by H.E. Mahama to Indonesia following his inauguration.
