Indonesia holds secret trade relations with Israel

The advisor for the B.T. Asouransy Hasindo for government insurance Zu al-Kufl Zaman Khan announced that Indonesia had secretly opened trade channels with Israel.

News reports quoted Khan as saying that since February 2000, the private trade sector was unofficially permitted to trade with the Israeli private sector, but he noted this does not mean full resumption of trade resumption between the two sides.

Two weeks ago Indonesia official denied to have their country lifted the embargo imposed on the trade with Israel after Tel Aviv announced it had received a message from the Indonesian minister of trade and the industry in which he said that trade relations between Indonesia and Israel can be resumed.
