Trump agrees to 19% tariff on all imports from Indonesia
US President Donald Trump says he has agreed to a 19 percent tariff on imports of all goods from Indonesia to the United States. Trump posted on social media on Tuesday that the US finalized a trade deal with Indonesia. He wrote, "Indonesia will pay the United States a 19 percent Tariff on all Goods they export to us, while U.S. Exports to Indonesia are to be Tariff and Non Tariff Barrier FREE." Trump also posted, "As part of the Agreement, Indonesia has committed to purchasing $15 Billion Dollars in U.S. Energy, $4.5 Billion Dollars in American Agricultural Products, and 50 Boeing Jets." The latest agreement will reduce the rate for Indonesia announced earlier by the Trump administration. The administration had been saying it would impose against Indonesia from August 1 a 32 percent levy consisting of a 10 percent universal tariff and what it called "reciprocal tariffs." Trump told reporters later on Tuesday that the US has full access into Indonesia, "which we never had." He added, "We have a couple of those deals that are going to be announced."

Trump Raps Japan Again for Failing to Open Markets
News from Japan Jul 16, 2025 14:10 (JST) Washington, July 15 (Jiji Press)--U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday reiterated his complaint that Japan does not open its markets further to imports. Speaking to reporters at an air force base near Washington, Trump said that "if Japan would open up their country," he "will veer from" a deal through a letter. "They don't do that." Trump said last week in a letter addressed to Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba that his administration will impose a 25 pct reciprocal tariff on Japanese goods, effective Aug. 1. If Japan does not make any concessions, "we might just stick with the letter," he said on Tuesday. The Trump administration thinks that the Japanese government is reluctant to make concessions in trade talks with Washington because of an election on Sunday for the country's House of Councillors.

Cambodia is among the nations at the epicenter of global scam operations, where foreign workers are trafficked or lured into the country using fake job ads and forced to steal billions of dollars through romance, investment and crypto scams. People from China, ASEAN, South Asia and Africa have been documented working at scam compounds in the country.
