Viewing cable 06JAKARTA5930, INDONESIA AND BOYCOTT STATUTES

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

SUBJECT: INDONESIA AND BOYCOTT STATUTES 
 
REF: STATE 66895 
 
ΒΆ1. (SBU) Indonesia does not formally comply with the Arab 
League Boycott of Israel.  Indonesians may travel to Israel 
with Indonesian passports but Indonesia does not have formal 
diplomatic relations with Israel.  There is no official data 
at the Ministry of Trade for trade with Israel, though it is 
possible that private merchants engage in informal trade. 
The American Chamber of Commerce told the Embassy that U.S. 
companies have experienced no official or informal requests 
to comply with the boycott.  There is no official obligation 
for Indonesian firms to comply with the boycott, though 
there is unwritten "Muslim solidarity" pressure to conform. 
Indonesia does not have a formal boycott law and does not 
maintain an Arab League Boycott office.
