The CS further added that the visit will come in the wake of significant milestones in the diplomatic ties between Kenya and Indonesia.

The visit comes four months after President William Ruto hosted a delegation of Indonesian ministers at State House Nairobi in January.

The delegation which was led by General (Rtd) Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan discussed areas of cooperation in different sectors, including; trade, mining and energy and defence and security.

"We will take time to carefully study and benchmark how Indonesia has tremendously grown her GDP through the value addition of natural resources and seek to apply the same models on resources like Soda Ash in Magadi which has been shipped away unprocessed for decades thus denying Kenya huge revenues," Kuria added.
