Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono arrived in Nanning on Sunday to attend a China-ASEAN summit scheduled on October 30 in Nanning, capital of south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

 

The summit is to mark the 15th anniversary of the China-ASEAN dialogue relations. Premier Wen Jiabao and leaders from ASEAN's 10-member countries will attend the summit that is widely expected to draw an outline for their future relationship.

 

Susilo will also participate in the opening ceremony of the third China-ASEAN Expo to be opened here on Tuesday. It is the first time for him to attend the Expo.

 

Susilo visited Shanghai before his arrival. There he and Vice Premier Huang Ju jointly attended a Sino-Indonesian energy forum on Saturday.
