INDONESIA WANTS TO PROMOTE EXPERTISE IN SABAH

KOTA KINABALU (Malaysia), July 31 (Bernama) -- Indonesia wants to promote
its expertise in various fields, especially in the professional sector, in Sabah
and other states in Malaysia, Indonesian Consul Rudhito Widagdo said.

He said there were much more services which Indonesia could offer apart from
those in the domestic help services, and labour in the construction and
plantation sectors.

"There are not many Indonesian professionals in Sabah except for a couple of
Indonesian lecturers at the Universiti Malaysia Sabah and teachers at the Kota
Kinabalu Indonesian School.

"But we have other professional expertise which we can offer to Sabah,
especially in the area of business," he told Bernama here recently.

Indonesian workers make up a bulk of Malaysia's migrant labour force, with
over 200,000 of them are in Sabah.
