Indonesia to engage Malaysia to discuss Trump’s tariffs

The Indonesian government is assessing the impact of new US import tariffs and preparing strategies to mitigate their effects.

Starting Apr. 5, the US will impose a 10% tariff on all imports, with additional reciprocal tariffs beginning Apr. 9.
