Minister of Research and Technology/
Chief of National Research and Innovation Agency
The 21st FNCA
Ministerial Level Meeting
Jakarta, December 10th 2020

Indonesia supports FNCA in development & cooperation
program on Nuclear Science and Technology (NST)

Indonesia appreciates theGovernment of Japan fororganizing the Forum Nuclear
Cooperation in Asia (FNCA) Ministerial
LevelMeeting2020 amidst the conditionsof the Covid-19 pandemic.

Indonesia is committed tosupport the development of anintense cooperation among
participatingcountriesforpromoting peaceful uses ofnuclear energy.

Indonesia
placesgreat
importance on the FNCA
cooperation program as themain vehicle for promoting
the peaceful use of nuclear
science and technology.

2IAEA ZODIAC and NUTEC Plastic Initiatives

Forum Nuclear Cooperation in Asia (FNCA) and International
Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) projects are mutuallycomplement for the development of nuclear technology
capability in Indonesia.

Indonesia hopes that the future collaboration program in thisforum should also in line with the initiatives launched recently
by the IAEA, such as such as Zoonotic Disease IntegratedAction (ZODIAC) and Nuclear Technology for Controlling
Plastic Pollution (NUTEC Plastic) programs.

Indonesia is ready to support the implementation of bothprograms.

Many products of innovation are now being produced and used. The most important endeavor in this consortium is vaccine development.
The work is underway. The gamma irradiation technique is planned to be used as one alternative to inactivate the virus. Irradiation using
gamma and electron beam are also used to help sterilization process of various medical stuffs that increasingly needed during the pandemic.
4National Research Priority 2020 – 2024

Indonesia continues to develop theradioisotopes and radiopharmaceuticals, whichis also one of the FNCA programs, and in ourNational Research Priority 2020 – 2024.

Indonesia continues to prepare infrastructures
for the construction of nuclear power plant,
among other by conducting the feasibility
study in one of potential site.

To support this effort, Indonesia collaborates
with several countries, including Japan.

The R&D on nuclear technology is continued aswell with aimed to mastery the advanced
generation reactor technology.
5South-South Cooperation:“Promoting Capacity Building in Nuclear Science and Technology (NST)”In terms of human capacity building,Indonesia promotes the Nuclear
Capacity Building (NuCaB) programfor providing technical capacity
building to other countries.

The program has been introduced toMember States of the IAEA during a side
event of IAEA 63rd General Conference
entitled “South-South Cooperation:
Promoting Capacity Building in Nuclear
Science and Technology”.

One of the implementations of thisprogram is by participating to the IAEA’s
Internet Reactor Laboratory (IRL)
program using “Kartini” research reactor
in Yogyakarta. The FNCA participating
countries are also invited to joint this IRL
program.
