History
Diplomatic relations between Colombia and Indonesia were established on 15 September 1980,[1][2] with diplomatic relations handled at the time by the Embassy of Indonesia in Brasilia, Brazil and the Embassy of Colombia in New Delhi, India respectively. In 1983 Colombia elevated its Consulate in Jakarta to Embassy, and remained in the country until 29 November 2002 when the Embassy closed due to budget reasons as part of a wider restructuring by the Colombian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Indonesia opened its Embassy in Bogotá on May 1989 and the first Ambassador of Indonesia to Colombia, Dr. Trenggono presented his letter of credence to President Virgilio Barco Vargas on 16 June 1989[3] and has maintained an ambassadorial presence in Colombia ever since.
On 7 March 2011 President of Colombia, Juan Manuel Santos Calderón announced the reopening of the Colombian Embassy in Jakarta as part of a campaign to promote the CIVETS economic block, of which Colombia and Indonesia are part of as emerging markets with similar economic background, and in an effort to strengthen ties with Indonesia and Asia in general.[4]
