Pakistan and Indonesia further strengthened their economic partnership with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on the establishment of the Indonesia–Pakistan Joint Trade Committee (JTC) to enhance dialogue, facilitate cooperation and jointly address opportunities and challenges in bilateral trade, the Pakistani commerce ministry said on Saturday.
