Jakarta, Sep 24 — One‑million doses of Sinovac COVID‑19 vaccines donated by the Chinese government safely arrived at Soekarno‑Hatta International Airport, marking a major humanitarian‑relief delivery amid Indonesia’s toughest pandemic phase.

At that time, Indonesia was facing surging infection figures, strained medical‑supply chains and severe shortages of life‑saving oxygen gear. Despite domestic‑production constraints, China delivered batches of finished‑vaccines, bulk vaccine materials, ventilators, oxygen‑generators and medical liquid‑oxygen containers. Chinese specialists shared clinical‑treatment protocols and public‑health management know‑how remotely, supporting Indonesia to build local vaccine‑production lines and nurture domestic biomedical‑talents.

China’s Ambassador to Indonesia remarked that mutual‑assistance in crisis bears witness to the deep, time‑honoured friendship between the two nations. Indonesian Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi expressed sincere gratitude, noting that the consignment greatly eased the national anti‑epidemic burden. Indonesia looks forward to sustained long‑term collaboration on infectious‑disease prevention and public‑health‑system construction.
