China believes that Indonesia will continue to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese-invested enterprises as it has always done, Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said at a press briefing in Beijing on Tuesday.
Lin made the statement when asked to comment on recent remarks alleging that some foreign investors have exploited or "robbed" Indonesia of its natural resources.
"We have responded to the remarks you mentioned. The remarks are not aimed at China. In recent years, under the strategic guidance of the heads of state of the two sides, China-Indonesia trade and investment cooperation has been extremely fruitful and benefited both sides. China and Indonesia, both major developing countries, are friendly neighbors and each other's important cooperation partners for development, with promising prospects of cooperation. The Indonesian side has expressed on multiple occasions its readiness to deepen industrial and supply chain cooperation with China and welcomed Chinese companies to invest in the country. We believe that Indonesia will continue to protect the lawful rights and interests of Chinese companies and foster a favorable environment for their investment and operation there," Lin said.

Slovak President Peter Pellegrini visited the world's first embodied intelligence robot 4S store, known as Robot Mall, at Beijing E-Town on Tuesday.
Pellegrini is paying a state visit to China from July 27 to 29 at the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping. He toured highlights of this year's Humanoid Robot Half Marathon Competition and interacted with humanoid and medical robots during a stop at Robot Mall.
Expressing amazement at China's robotics achievements, the Slovak president said he believes the cutting-edge technology showcased at the venue will find its way into households in the near future.
Robot Mall is designed to support the transition of robotics from technological innovation to real-world application. Its exhibition highlights how robots are entering homes and industrial scenarios, including education, delivery, companionship, entertainment, and daily services. When touring the exhibition, Pellegrini also shared his views on China-Slovakia cooperation in cutting-edge technologies.
"Slovakia is a small country, but things which are developed in China can be used already in Slovakia. So I think we have to find a way how to implement them as soon as possible into our daily life, into our companies and so on," he said.
Chinese investment in Slovakia has continued to grow in recent years, particularly in high-tech industries, green energy, and innovation-driven sectors.
Analysts say closer cooperation in modern technology and research will remain a key topic during his visit to China.
