INDONESIA AIMS TO BECOME OECD MEMBER IN 2 TO 3 YEARS, SENIOR MINISTER SAYS

Feb 28, 2024 | 7:40 PM

JAKARTA (Reuters) – Indonesia aims to complete the accession to become the
member of Paris-based Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development
(OECD) within two to three years, a senior cabinet minister said late on
Wednesday.

The Southeast Asia’s largest economy hopes to attract more investment and trade
deals by becoming OECD member.

The statement came after OECD, which has 38 member countries, decided last week
to open discussion for Indonesia’s accession, following its application last
July.

Chief economic minister Airlangga Hartarto said the country is optimistic about
being accepted as an OECD member because he said Indonesia had already complied
with the organisation’s standards, including for a fair economy and
anti-corruption.

“Various principles are relatively the same…so basically we already complied
with their (OECD) standards,” he said in a press conference after holding a
dinner event on Wednesday with the ambassadors of 33 OECD member countries.

“We hope the process of becoming an OECD member can be completed within 2 to 3
years.”

Indonesia is the first Southeast Asian nation applying for the organisation’s
membership, according to OECD.

The minister said Indonesia will now jointly work with OECD to complete a
roadmap document, which sets out the terms, conditions and process for
accession, and aimed to present it at the OECD’s ministerial council meeting in
May.

Indonesia’s accession process will go through a rigorous examination, which will
cover issues of trade, anti-corruption, and climate change, to ensure the
country meets OECD standards.

The OECD said there is no deadline for completion of the accession process as
the outcome is depending on the country’s capacity to adapt with OECD’s
standards and best practices.
