The 1st APEC-AD (Automotive Dialogue) Workshop for the 8th Indonesia International Automotive Conference was held here on Tuesday and the government had invited a number of stakeholders to discuss the environmentally friendly cars program.
The event was attended by a number of automobile related institutions and vehicle associations from various countries, namely Japan, South Korea, China, Thailand, India and the United States.
The Chairman of the Association for Indonesian Automotive Manufacturers Association (Gaikindo) Jongkie Sugiarto said that the Indonesian market was open to the idea of an environmentally friendly cars program, because domestic car sales` growth could surpass a million units per year.
