<p>We look forward to working with the new Indonesian president, following the inauguration
on 20 October, on a range of areas of mutual interest, including freedom of religion.</p><p>Indonesia
has a strong tradition of religious diversity and tolerance but there has been a rise
in recent years of localised instances of inter- and intra-religious conflict. We
will encourage the next President’s government to uphold Indonesia’s constitutional
right to religious freedom or belief, including ensuring that laws and regulations
at all levels provide protection for minority faiths.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>
