The UAE has sent an aircraft carrying 48 tonnes of vital food aid to Indonesia.
It will go towards supporting families hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, state news agency Wam said on Monday.
The assistance follows a previous flight sent by the UAE last year to help the country battle coronavirus.
Indonesia has had one of the severest coronavirus outbreaks in Asia, with about 1.7 million cases and more than 46,000 deaths.
Abdullah Al Dhaheri, UAE ambassador to Indonesia and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, said the gesture underlined the warm relationship between the countries.
"The UAE and Indonesia are linked by solid ties, which are reflected in the continued exchanges and bilateral visits by the leaders of our two countries," Mr Al Dhaheri said.
"In April 2020, the UAE sent a plane containing 20 tonnes of medical supplies to Indonesia to support the country in curbing the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic, benefiting 20,000 frontline healthcare workers."
The UAE has provided aid to more than 135 countries since the pandemic began last year.
Kenya, Syria and Guinea are among other countries to benefit.

The bio
Favourite book: Peter Rabbit. I used to read it to my three children and still read it myself. If I am feeling down it brings back good memories.
Best thing about your job: Getting to help people. My mum always told me never to pass up an opportunity to do a good deed.
Best part of life in the UAE: The weather. The constant sunshine is amazing and there is always something to do, you have so many options when it comes to how to spend your day.
Favourite holiday destination: Malaysia. I went there for my honeymoon and ended up volunteering to teach local children for a few hours each day. It is such a special place and I plan to retire there one day.

Employment lawyer Meriel Schindler of Withers Worldwide shares her tips on achieving equal pay
Do your homework
Make sure that you are being offered a fair salary. There is lots of industry data available, and you can always talk to people who have come out of the organisation. Where I see people coming a cropper is where they haven’t done their homework.
Don’t be afraid to negotiate
It’s quite standard to negotiate if you think an offer is on the low side. The job is unlikely to be withdrawn if you ask for money, and if that did happen I’d question whether you want to work for an employer who is so hypersensitive.
Know your worth
Women tend to be a bit more reticent to talk about their achievements. In my experience they need to have more confidence in their own abilities – men will big up what they’ve done to get a pay rise, and to compete women need to turn up the volume.
Work together
If you suspect men in your organisation are being paid more, look your boss in the eye and say, “I want you to assure me that I’m paid equivalent to my peers”. If you’re not getting a straight answer, talk to your peer group and consider taking direct action to fix inequality.
