JAKARTA: Businesses have expressed concern over a boycott on goods from companies perceived to support Israel, arguing the measure hurt retail sales and may jeopardise the country’s economic growth target.

Indonesian Employers Association (Apindo) chairwoman Shinta Kamdani said the boycott had wrongly targeted some local companies with no connection to Israel.
