The US State Department has lifted its travel warning for Indonesia, reflecting improved security and paving the way for closer ties between the two countries.
The Islamic militant group Jemaah Islamiah, which wanted to create an Islamic caliphate in Southeast Asia, carried out a series of deadly bomb attacks in Indonesia between 2002 and 2005, dealing a severe blow to the country's tourism and trade.
Following the bombings, the Indonesian authorities worked closely with foreign allies to arrest militants and step up security.
