Why everyone should watch out for Indonesia | Business Beyond

Indonesia is the world's fourth biggest country by population and is projected to have the world's fourth biggest economy within a few decades. Its outgoing President Joko Widodo has sought to remake his country's economy during his decade in charge and he has largely done so. But Indonesia and its 280 million citizens face major challenges if they are to clear the biggest hurdle of all - going from developing to developed.

Corruption can be a problem but having incompetent politicians making important decisions is way worst....

I am a new expat in Jakarta, Indonesia. Saya masih belajar Bahasa Indonesia tapi, loving every moment so far. People here are good. It motivates you to do good for them. I look forward to starting my business in this great nation and growing together with the people.

Certainly, infrastructure needs vast investment and improvement. Day-to-day bureaucracy could also use some improvement for greater business flow and progression. These two alone (although not small achievements) coupled with an education reform would be ideal.

The more Indonesia is humbled, the more it flies high towards the era of global power 🇮🇩🇮🇩🔥

this may be nice to hear, but having lived there for 2 years as an expat - it is a very tough place to do business as foreigners. there are deeply established local patronage networks, impossible to break into. maybe only via singapore who has been financing a lot

[nazrulazahar]

the big problem with indonesia is the same as brazil. The gap between the rich and the poor is too large. Corruption is at large scale. Indonesia potential is so big, in fact indonesia got the biggest resources among ASEAN countries.

Terimakasih media berita jerman sudah liput perkembangan dan kemajuan Indonesia hehe
Indonesia negara non blok dan Indonesia siap bekerjasama ekonomi dengan mana saja yg sama sama saling menguntungkan.
Dan Indonesia kini akan masuk aliansi OECD.
Walau aliansi BRICs pihak Rusia masih mengharapkan Indonesian jadi anggota Brics dluan

semakin tinggi burung itu terbang maka semakin kencang pula angin yang menerpa. itulah yang sedang terjadi pada Indonesia. sesungguhnya Indonesia adalah negara yang sangat sangat kaya dari sumber daya alam dan budaya..jika Indonesia mampu menahan terjangan angin yang menerpa maka Indonesia akan menjadi negara super power yang akan memimpin dunia untuk menyatukan negara negara di dunia ini hidup damai bersama. tentu itu semua akan ada yang menghalangi berdasarkan ketidak sukaan terhadap Indonesia.

Having just returned from Bali and absolutely loved everything apart from one which was the traffic. It’s pretty bad with sometimes a 5 km trip taking you 40 Mts. Won’t stop me from retiring there though not to mention I found Indonesians as very patient and polite people with no honking unlike India where it’s all horns blazing even when there is no traffic jam

[sarabeth]

Indonesia makes awesome movies and TV series, especially in the horror and martial arts genre. The scripts are well written, original, and sophisticated. The cinematography is excellent and the acting is good too. If they can rid their country of corruption, the sky's the limit.

INDONESIA HEBAT 🇮🇩
100% will be the most POWERFUL COUNTRY IN THE WORLD in 2045 🎊

PROUD TO BE INDONESIAN ❤

Indonesia is truly fortunate to have a visionary president. 10 years ago Indonesia was nothing. Now it is worthy of being reckoned with in the global economy. A smart leader who is able to face global pressure. Hats off to you.

"Mysterious Indonesia" is a key point in Game Theory for Geopolitics issue, economy, and security.

My mum is from the outskirts of Jakarta, Indonesia. She managed to emigrate to the UK to marry my dad because she didn't like it there. The corruption, pollution and overcrowding became all too much for her. These are major challenges that Indonesia will have to overcome if they are to succeed globally.

Why watch out for Indonesia? They found a development spiral upward, which is good for Indonesia. So why would we need to watch out for them? They are our friends.

As an Indian, I am so happy for Indonesia. Lets decide our future together
