Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The US President Elect Donald Trump will want Indonesia to agree to ratify international trade commitments including APEC and the Indonesia-US Strategic Partnership.
"Donald Trump will be interested in making investments in the infrastructure sector, including air, land and sea ports, especially investments that have the potential to lessen the influence of the Peoples Republic of China in South-East Asia," international relations observer from Padjajaran University, Teuku Rezasyah, told ANTARA News in Jakarta on Wednesday.
Teuku Rezasyah added that Donald Trump will potentially urge Indonesia to explain the Free-Active policy adopted by the country in the context of the rivalry between the US and China.
"Considering the importance of investment and trade security, Trump is likely to understand the challenges faced by Indonesia in following human rights principles in the country," he noted.
Republican Donald Trump won over his rival Hillary Clinton, the candidate of the Democratic Party.
Trump was elected as the 45th US President with total electoral votes far above Hillary Clintons.
His victory came as a shock since most surveys had predicted that Hillary Clinton would win the US Presidential contest.

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The relations between Indonesia and the United States will remain good, irrespective of who wins the US presidential election, President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) stated.
"Indonesia respects the electoral process in the United States," Jokowi said here on Wednesday.
The president also lauded the choice of the American people.
"We should wait for the final calculations," the president counseled.
The new leader of the United States would not affect the good relations between Indonesia and the US that had been established over the years.
"Our relations will remain good, especially in trade and investment. The US is now the fifth-largest investing country in Indonesia," the president noted.
The BKPM data showed that the United States is categorized as a priority country for marketing investment in Indonesia. In 2015, the value of the United States investment in Indonesia had reached US$893.2 million, covering 261 projects, mostly in the mining sector.
The US investment commitment is recorded at US$4.8 billion across 76 projects.
