Recent expansion of my Sino-Indonesian research focus, which have been developed since 1999, has included the digital economy and governance, as well as green development in recent years. My longtime research expertise includes Sino-Indonesian relations, China's politics and foreign policy in the region, Belt and Road Initiative, Chinese Indonesian political participation and democratization in Indonesia.As part of the strategic communication & research program, I have also maintained proactive engagement with key stakeholders, particularly: policy makers, the media, thinktanks and educational institutions, relevant associations, as well as a diversity of civil society elements in local, national & international levels.
