Some of Ramaphosa’s visits include working and State visits to Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia and Switzerland, to advance South Africa’s bilateral relations with the respective countries, particularly in respect of trade and investment.

The visits will also enable South Africa to strengthen cooperation with partner States in global forums and contribute to the President’s preparations for his chairing of the G20 Leaders’ Summit, in November.
