Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz al Saud arrived here on Wednesday on an official visit to Indonesia, the first leg of his Asian tour that will also take him to China, Japan, Brunei and the Maldives.

The Saudi news agency (SPA) said that King Salman was received by Indonesian President Joko Widodo upon his arrival at Halim International Airport in Jakarta.

This is the first visit by a Saudi ruler to Indonesia in almost half a century.
