Jakarta, Dec 11 (ANTARA) - Japanese officials have expressed their readiness to help Indonesia face the global financial crisis, according to Ginanjar Kartasasmita, chief patron of the Indonesia-Japan Friendship Association (PPIJ).

Ginanjar said he and academics from various universities and research institutes in Japan had discussed various concepts and ways to overcome the crisis and to prevent it from happening again in the future.
