Indonesia has been implementing South-South and Triangular Cooperation (SSTC) initiatives for more than thirty years in its commitment to contribute to the global development cooperation. Indonesia started its involvement in global cooperation architecture in the 1950s when Indonesia-together with India, Myanmar, Pakistan and Sri Lanka- initiated the first Asian African Conference (AAC) in Bandung, Indonesia. The conference gathered numbers of Asian and African countries in solidarity to strengthen the cooperation among themselves. Since the 1980s, Indonesia has been involved actively in cooperation with South Countries through South-South and Triangular Cooperation.
