JAKARTA (Reuters) - Indonesia is targeting an increase of 7.5 percent in non-oil and gas exports this year to $175.9 billion, Trade Minister Enggartiasto Lukita said on Thursday.
In 2018, such exports totalled $163.6 billion, or 6.9 percent higher than in the previous year.
The minister said this year's growth will be supported by exports of coal, iron and steel and automotive products.
Indonesia is also targeting to finalise trade deals with 12 countries, including Mozambique, Tunisia and Morocco, which would be "gates to Africa", Lukita said.
