A privilege to meet Indonesia’s Chief of Protocol to provide copies of my Letters of Credentials. Enjoyed the engaging discussion on the growing 🇨🇦🇮🇩 relationship. I even found the Canadian flag in the lobby of @Kemlu_RI!

Read this excellent thread that walks through the incredible amount of work that goes into an evacuation. And thank our diplomats for doing what they do - 24/7. Our ambassador in Israel is one of our best and she has a good team behind her. @LisaStadelbauer @PafsoApase
