CCTV Script 23/07/2025
As the August 1st deadline approaches, the U.S. government is intensifying efforts to reach trade agreements with various countries. On Tuesday local time, progress was made in trade negotiations between the U.S. and Southeast Asian nations. According to the joint statement released by the White House, U.S. tariffs on Indonesia have been reduced from the previously threatened 32% in April to 19%. In return, Indonesia will lower tariffs to 0% on 99% of U.S. exports to Indonesia, covering sectors such as agricultural products, healthcare products, aquatic products, as well as communications technology, automobiles, and chemicals. In terms of tariff rates, the Special Adviser to the Indonesian President on International Trade said in an interview with CNBC that while the original 32% tariff level would have significantly impacted Indonesia's economy, the current 19% tariff is expected to shift the effect on GDP from a negative 0.6% to a positive growth of 0.5%. "We will be able to avoid, hopefully, the potential retrenchment in our labor intensive industries and exports, which have been the worst hit with the 32% tariff." It is worth noting that, according to the joint statement, Indonesia will comprehensively ease non-tariff barriers on U.S. industrial and agricultural products, including localization requirements, certification standards, import permits, and more. Specifically, Indonesia has agreed to exempt U.S.-invested companies and their products of origin from local content requirements. Previously, this policy was seen as a key measure to promote local employment in Indonesia, but it has now been relaxed. Secondly, Indonesia has agreed to adopt for American-made cars exported to Indonesia, which is also a positive development for U.S. automakers. Additionally, Indonesia will lift export restrictions on critical minerals. Moreover, overnight, Trump announced that the U.S. would impose a 19% tariff on the Philippines. This tariff adjustment follows a rise from 17% in April to 20% at the beginning of this month, and has now been reduced to 19%, matching the rate applied to Indonesia. According to U.S. government data, the U.S. trade deficit with the Philippines last year was $4.9 billion, with bilateral trade totaling $23.5 billion. In response to Trump's proposal for the Philippines to open its market to the U.S. and implement zero tariffs, the Philippines has yet to respond. Previously, the Philippines stated that it could not implement zero tariffs on U.S. goods like Vietnam and Indonesia, as it would harm the interests of domestic businesses. The president of the Philippine Exporters Confederation said in a CNBC interview that, based on a survey of local exporters, 10% of respondents reported their buyers were in a wait-and-see mode due to uncertainty about absorbing additional costs. However, most of these orders have already been successfully redirected to other markets. For Southeast Asian countries, they are closely monitoring the progress of trade negotiations between their neighbors and the U.S. This attention underscores the interconnected nature of regional trade dynamics and the potential ripple effects of bilateral agreements on neighboring economies. "We're really worried about the negotiations of our competitors. So sort of especially in the region. Because if what happens to Vietnam happens to the other countries here who have the same products with us, then we have a problem in the US, at least."

White House releases U.S.-Indonesia trade deal framework, final talks underway
watch now The U.S. and Indonesia agreed to the framework of a trade agreement which would see Jakarta scrap most of its tariffs on American imports, the White House revealed in a joint statement Tuesday afternoon. U.S. tariffs on Indonesian imports would be set at 19% under the deal, which is described in the release as an "Agreement on Reciprocal Trade." While higher than the 10% baseline tariff that the U.S. has slapped on almost all other countries, the 19% rate is significantly lower than the 32% blanket duty that Indonesia initially faced under President Donald Trump's "liberation day" tariff plan in April. The joint statement notes that the U.S. and Indonesia will continue to "negotiate and finalize the Agreement on Reciprocal Trade" in the coming weeks.

Agoes Rudianto | Nurphoto | Getty Images They will also "prepare the Agreement for signature, and undertake domestic formalities in advance of the Agreement entering into force" in that time, the statement said. The newly unveiled terms of the framework mirror the ones Trump laid out when he first announced on social media last week that he had "finalized" a deal with Indonesia after speaking to its president, Prabowo Subianto. Tuesday's more formal statement said the framework also includes a series of forthcoming commercial deals between the two countries, including an aircraft purchase valued at $3.2 billion and an estimated $15 billion in purchases of energy products. The framework also says the countries will also address various "non-tariff barriers" and other obstacles that the U.S. faces in Indonesian markets. Indonesia is one of the United States' top 25 trade partners, with the two countries trading more than $38 billion in goods in 2024, according to the Commerce Department. The U.S. trade deficit with Indonesia totaled $17.9 billion last year. "Today's announcement shows that America can defend its domestic production while obtaining expansive market access with our trading partners," U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said in a statement. "American producers, who have long-faced high tariffs and burdensome requirements, will receive unprecedented access to Indonesia's market and greater certainty for the digital services sector. I thank Indonesian Minister Airlangga Hartarto for his dedication and I am glad we are able to achieve fair, balanced, and reciprocal trade for our countries," said Greer. The deal joins a limited number of other framework trade agreement outlines the Trump administration has released with countries that include the United Kingdom and China. This month, Trump announced that deals similar to Indonesia's had been reached with Vietnam and the Philippines. But the terms of those deals, as described by the White House, have not been confirmed by the participating nations. Trump has also sent a series of letters to key U.S. trade partners, laying out steep tariff rates he says will be imposed starting Aug. 1.

Indonesia trade deal will remove critical-mineral export restrictions: WH
WASHINGTON — Indonesia will remove restrictions on its critical-mineral exports to the US as part of the countries' new tariff agreement, the White House revealed Tuesday. President Trump had announced last week that he would be settling for a 19% tariff rate on the world's fourth most populous country, just a week after threatening a 32% rate. In addition to agreeing to the new nearly 20% rate, Indonesia — an archipelago of more than 17,500 islands — also said OK to removing export restrictions on critical minerals and verification requirements on imports of US goods, a White House official told reporters Tuesday. Indonesia will meanwhile levy a 0% tariff on more than 99% of US goods and will eliminate nearly all trade barriers, the official said. 3 President Trump announced Indonesia will open its market up to the US in exchange for Trump imposing a 19% tariff. Getty Images At the start of his trade war announcement in April, Trump claimed that Indonesia was charging up to 64% on some US goods. 'The United States of America will now sell American Made products to Indonesia at a Tariff Rate of ZERO, while Indonesia will pay 19% on all of their products coming into the U.S.A. — The Best Market in the World!' Trump wrote on Truth Social. 'In addition, Indonesia will supply the United States with their precious Critical Minerals, as well as sign BIG Deals, worth Tens of Billions of Dollars, to purchase Boeing Aircraft, American Farm products, and American Energy,' the president said. Trump said last week that the 'biggest part of the deal' is Indonesia opening up its markets to US exports by lowering restrictions — and also by freeing up the country's copper ore exports. 'One of the things, as you know, they're known for is very high-quality copper, which we will be using,' Trump said at the time. The deal also includes provisions for Indonesia to accept imports of US vehicles built to US federal motor vehicle safety and emissions standards and 'accepting FDA certificates and prior marketing authorizations for medical devices and pharmaceuticals,' according to the White House. 3 Containers are stacked on a cargo ship at the Jakarta International Container Terminal in Tanjung Priok Port, Jakarta, earlier this month.

Its top trading partners are China and the US, and the White House pointed to the population of the country — more than 280 million — as evidence of the importance of the deal. 'Indonesia is one of the largest countries in the world to represent the vast consumer markets that we want to ship to,' a Trump administration official said on a phone call with reporters. 3 Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto gestures as he speaks to the media upon arrival from his overseas trip at Halim Perdanakusuma Airbase in Jakarta, Indonesia, last week. AP The deal with Indonesia is just one of several the Trump administration has made in its ongoing global trade negotiations. Trump announced a 19% tariff agreement with the Philippines earlier Tuesday and is looking to strike more agreements before Aug. 1, when the administration has threatened to hike tariff rates on countries who haven't come to the table.
