He was then assigned to the political section at Indonesia's consulate in West Berlin with the rank of third secretary. He returned to the foreign ministry as chief of maritime law and delimitation within the Directorate of International Treaties, before returning for an overseas stint at the political affairs desk at the permanent mission of Indonesia to the United Nations with the rank of counsellor. During this period, he completed his mid-career diplomatic training in 2002, and senior diplomatic training in 2007.[1]
