Introduction: India-Indonesia Relations
Enjoying two millennia of shared cultural and commercial contacts, India and Indonesia share a bond like none other.
Located in the littoral of the Bay of Bengal, these two nations have been civilisational partners since times immemorial.

The two nations commemorated 70 years of thriving and effective diplomatic relations in 2019. A key tenet of India's Indo Pacific strategy, the Indo-Indonesia cooperation has a significant role to play in achieving the shared goal of a secure and prosperous Bay of Bengal area.
