Pigai mentioned that the two countries have shared values in maintaining independence, respecting each other, and recognizing the significance of dialogue when addressing global issues.
He evaluated that the bilateral ties between Indonesia and Georgia are still developing and have the opportunity to be enhanced in various strategic areas, including trade, education, culture, tourism, and exchanges between individuals.
"Indonesia reaffirms its commitment to advancing the universal values of human rights, tolerance, and social justice, while emphasizing the importance of constructive engagement and partnerships among nations," Pigai says at the celebration of Georgia's Independence Day.
He believes that enhancing people-to-people exchanges is crucial for broadening mutual comprehension and collaboration between the two nations across various areas, such as humanitarian concerns and sustainable development.
Pigai also valued the contribution of Tornike Nozadze, the Ambassador of Georgia to Indonesia, in enhancing the bilateral ties between the nations, particularly in the areas of trade and economy.

The Indonesian government similarly commended Georgia for its role in promoting stability and sustainable development globally.

Georgia emphasized its achievements in enhancing institutions, promoting economic growth, and bolstering ties with global partners as it celebrated its Independence Day on May 26, 2026. Having a history of statehood that spans over 2,000 years, Georgia has often faced conflicts and challenges for autonomy before finally gaining independence on May 26, 1918. The nation celebrates Independence Day as a significant aspect of its cultural identity.

Over a hundred years post-independence, contemporary Georgia has experienced major transformations in international relations and internal politics, Nozadze noted.
He claims that Georgia has established a governmental framework that numerous international studies and organizations rank among the top five or ten worldwide. He mentioned government procurement transparency as an example, stating that the nation has succeeded in eliminating — or almost eradicating — corruption.
For over ten years, the World Bank has also ranked Georgia as one of the simplest locations globally to conduct business. He stated that this shows Georgia has created laws that are supportive not just of its local citizens, but also of foreign investors and collaborators.
