According to the Ministério das Relações Exteriores (MRE), the Brazilian government said, as the largest economy and most populous nation in Southeast Asia, Indonesia shares with other BRICS members the support for the reform of the global governance institutions and contributes significantly to the deepening of Global South cooperation.
The Chinese government also welcomes Indonesia's full membership. China believes that Indonesia, as a major developing country and an important power in the global south, highly appreciates the spirit of BRICS and has actively participated in the "BRICS Plus" cooperation.
Indonesia's candidacy was supported by BRICS leaders in August 2023. However, Indonesia decided to officially join the bloc after the formation of a new government from the 2024 presidential elections.
Besides Indonesia, BRICS also welcomed three other Southeast Asian countries as new members, namely Malaysia, Vietnam, and Thailand.
