It was down to business for Indonesian President Joko Widodo on day one of his first official trip to Australia, talking trade and investment with some of the nation's biggest companies.
Mr Widodo's arrival on Saturday also coincided with announcements Australian live cattle exporters will get better market access in Indonesia, as well as official pledges that a long-awaited trade agreement between the nations will be finalised this year.
The president and his wife, Iriana Widodo, touched down for his two-day tour on a rain-soaked tarmac in Sydney, clutching an umbrella as they greeted Australian officials.
In the afternoon, he opened a meeting with business leaders from the mining, healthcare, tourism and retail industries with a joke about drawing them in on a non-working day.
"In Indonesia we sometimes work on weekends... Ok, always ," he laughed.

The forum was also attended by Indonesia's foreign minister Retno Marsudi and Investment Coordinating Board chairman Thomas Lembong.
Mr Lembong, a former trade minister, said the "business-minded" president was keen to hear advice on making market access better for Aussie firms, whether that was access to water sources for beverage companies or easier local licensing permits.
Indonesia was keen to tap into Australian expertise to boost its developing economy, he said.
"And in so doing they can make a lot of money," he told reporters after the meeting.
Mr Lembong said he was confident the comprehensive economic partnership agreement would be wrapped up this year.
But he also raised concerns about market access for Indonesian firms, saying there was a "fair bit" of red-tape restrictions in Australia, as well as feelings that preferential treatment was being given to Malaysia for palm oil imports.
Meanwhile, the live export sector welcomed Indonesia agreeing to move from four month to one-year import cattle permits, and increasing weight and age limits for live feeder cattle.
The Indonesian leader also met with NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian to talk state investment in infrastructure, agribusiness, fintech and training sectors.
On Saturday night he was attending a private dinner at Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull's Point Piper mansion before the pair undertook official talks on Sunday.
