(Jakarta News) A delegation led by Zhong Li, Vice President of Shantou Council for the Promotion of International Trade, including level 4 researcher Luo Yingjiao, marketing director Zhou Jisheng of Shantou Qiwei Industrial Co., Ltd., Zhou Yanfang, chairman of Shantou Jiaya Plastic Co., Ltd. and other entrepreneurs, 10 visited Indonesian Chinese Entrepreneur Association at 2:30 pm on Thursday, November 12th, and received a warm welcome from Vice Chairman Lian Jiehao and Jiang Miaocheng, Secretary General Zhou Weiliang,
Lian Jiehao, Vice Chairman of Indonesian Chinese Entrepreneur Association, pointed out that first of all, on behalf of Indonesian Chinese Entrepreneur Association, I would like to extend a warm welcome to the arrival of Vice President Zhong and his delegation! Indonesia has a huge demand for beauty and skin care products, with huge market potential and promising prospects. Indonesian consumers especially favor natural, organic, environmentally friendly, moisturizing, whitening, anti-aging and anti-pollution products. In addition, as one of the largest Muslim countries in the world, the Indonesian government stipulated in October 2019 that cosmetics and skin care products imported and distributed to Indonesia must obtain halal certification by October 2026. This provides huge development opportunities for Muslim certified cosmetics in the Indonesian market.
Indonesia is home to thousands of cosmetics manufacturers, many of which are family-run small businesses. More and more such companies hope to bring their products to the international market. As cross-border transactions increase, market competition becomes increasingly fierce, which brings both challenges and opportunities. Of course, the difficulty of manufacturing high-quality products also increases. Therefore, we encourage attracting more international strategic capital investment while strengthening cooperation between Indonesian and foreign cosmetics companies.
Today, Vice Chairman Zhong Li personally led a delegation of cosmetics companies to visit. We hope to have in-depth exchanges and strengthen cooperation in investment, trade and other fields. We firmly believe that by working together, we can provide enterprises with more business opportunities and partners. We will actively promote the connection between enterprises from both sides, and will also fully provide chamber of commerce services to assist Shantou enterprises in settling in Indonesia and provide them with necessary consultation and assistance. Finally, I sincerely wish you all a successful trip to Indonesia and a fruitful harvest.
Vice President Zhong Li said that this time he came to Indonesia mainly to participate in the 16th Indonesia International Beauty Exhibition in 2023, which will be held at the Jakarta Convention and Exhibition Center (JCC) from October 12 to 14. We hope that through this beauty exhibition, we can promote various cosmetics from Shantou City to the Indonesian market and find partners.
Thanks to Indonesian Chinese Entrepreneur Association for the warm hospitality, and briefly introduced the development of Shantou City in the fields of economy, trade, cosmetics industry and other fields. In addition, after the epidemic is over, Shantou City’s trade has gradually picked up.
Last year, the Shantou Municipal Party Committee proposed to unswervingly follow the road of "building a city through industry and strengthening the city through industry" and building an industrial development pattern of "three new, two special and one major", that is, taking the digital economy as the guide, vigorously developing new energy, new materials, The three strategic emerging industries of the new generation of electronic information empower the chain development of two traditional industries with distinctive advantages, namely textiles and clothing and toy creativity, and strive to cultivate a big health industry. We sincerely invite entrepreneurs from Indonesian Chinese Entrepreneur Association to take the time to visit Shantou City, go sightseeing, and invest in business. After the exchange meeting, leaders from both sides exchanged souvenirs and took photos.
