President Ferdinand Marcos of the Philippines has just departed from the White House, accompanied by his numerous representatives. It was a splendid visit, culminating in our Trade Deal, which sees the Philippines adopting an OPEN MARKET approach with the United States, while imposing ZERO tariffs on American goods. The Philippines will adhere to a 19% tariff on their imports. Additionally, we will collaborate militarily. It was a great honor to meet the President, who is indeed a skilled and formidable negotiator. We extend our warmest regards to the wonderful people of the Philippines!

“Furthermore, Indonesia will provide the United States with vital Critical Minerals and engage in significant contracts worth Tens of Billions of Dollars for Boeing Aircraft, American agricultural products, and energy resources. This agreement is a HUGE WIN for our automakers, tech companies, workers, farmers, ranchers, and manufacturers,” Trump proclaimed.

It is my great honor to announce our Trade Agreement with the Republic of Indonesia, represented by their esteemed President, Prabowo Subianto. It has been agreed that Indonesia will open its market to American industrial and technological products, as well as agricultural goods, by eliminating 99% of their tariff barriers. The United States will now be able to export American-made products to Indonesia at a tariff rate of ZERO, while Indonesia will incur a 19% tariff on all their products entering the U.S. — the premier market globally! Additionally, Indonesia will supply the U.S. with Critical Minerals and engage in significant contracts worth tens of billions of dollars for Boeing Aircraft, American agricultural products, and energy. This agreement is a monumental WIN for our automakers, tech companies, workers, farmers, ranchers, and manufacturers. Thank you for your attention. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
