To date, Indonesian state-owned pharmaceutical company Bio Farma and Kimia Farma are exploring international cooperation in developing a Covid-19 vaccine with China and the United Arab Emirates, respectively.
The former is collaborating with their Chinese counterpart Sinovac to develop a vaccine, while the latter is doing the same with the UAE’s G42 Healthcare Holdings company. Indonesian authorities hope the vaccine will be available by 2021.
