Africa-Press<\/a> – Tanzania<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>INFORMATION, Culture, Arts and Sports Deputy Minister, Pauline Gekul has expressed Tanzania\u2019s commitment to cooperate with Indonesia in cultural affairs for the benefit of the two nations.<\/p>\n

The deputy minister said that the two countries have enjoyed bilateral relationship for the past 67 years, thus it was the right time that more cultural activities like cultural exhibitions and cultural interactions are given emphasis for the countries to enjoy mutual benefits in cultural matters.<\/p>\n
