Leading Japanese law firm Nishimura & Asahi (“N&A”) is pleased to announce a new association with Indonesian law firm Walalangi & Partners (“W&P”) as part of the firm’s strategy to strengthen and expand its Indonesian network.  W&P was founded by experienced Indonesian corporate and financing lawyer Luky I. Walalangi, and has been fully operational from 1 January 2018. Mr. Walalangi is supported by a group of young, dynamic and talented Indonesian lawyers as well as by one Japanese lawyer who will be transferred from N&A’s head office in Tokyo.

The firm’s focus will be on supporting inbound investment and financing activity in a variety of sectors, with a focus on Japanese investment into Indonesia, working in close cooperation with N&A, in addition to building relationships with domestic corporate clients.

N&A’s Managing Partner, Masaki Hosaka, said: “Our firm has been involved in Indonesian business for a number of years and the opportunity to develop a close relationship based around supporting the strategic needs of our clients in Indonesia is fundamental to delivering the best service to those clients. We have worked with Luky Walalangi for a number of years and respect and admire his ability to deliver the standards of service expected by our clients.”

Luky Walalangi added: “I am delighted to be able to strengthen the existing relationship with N&A, with the support of outstanding Indonesian lawyers dedicated to supporting the needs of our common client base in areas ranging from M&A and inbound investment to real estate, antitrust and finance.
