JAKARTA - Donald Trump Jr, the eldest son of the U.S. president, said he was upbeat about two planned Trump-branded projects in Indonesia and dismissed any risk of conflict of interest over involvement in the luxury resorts in Southeast Asia's biggest economy.
"I'm very excited to be here, to see these very different projects," said Trump Jr, referring to the two resorts located on the popular holiday island of Bali and in Lido, near the heavily populated capital Jakarta. The Trump Organisation has a contractual obligation to finish off deals it had previously signed, he said.
Asked if the U.S.-China trade war might have any influence on Trump projects, Trump Jr said:"There's literally zero influence in one decision-making process as it relates to the other."MNC Chairman and CEO Tanoesoedibjo said his group had not received any financing from China for the Trump-related project. It has previously been in talks with Chinese banks for loans but that was for a separate theme park it was developing, he added.
Tanoesoedibjo ran for Indonesia's vice president in the 2014 elections and subsequently founded his own political party, which contested Indonesia's general elections in 2019.
