TOKYO: Japan decided to extend Emergency Grant Aid of approximately ¥613 million Yen (or 5.6 million USD) to Indonesia in order to provide 2,800 oxygen concentrators through UNOPS in response to the current surge of COVID-19 infections in Indonesia.

This assistance will support Indonesia, Japan’s “Strategic Partner,” to fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, the government said.

Furthermore, together with the provision of a total of approximately 2 million doses of vaccine, Japan said it will continue to extend support for Indonesia’s efforts to contain the COVID-19 situation.

As of July 19, Indonesia has the cumulative COVID-19  positive cases of 2,911,733 people and the cumulative deaths of 74,920 people.
