Indonesia's remarkable economic and social achievements, amidst incredible cultural diversity and complexity, have motivated the World Bank to herald this sprawling archipelago of 200 million people as a model developing economy. Driven by an agenda of massive market reforms and deregulations, the government is undeniably committed to the country's sustainable global competitiveness in the 21st century. In Business Opportunities in Indonesia, the ninth volume in the Nanyang Business Report Series, the editors profile the vast business environment emerging within this newly awakened giant.

This book is comprehensive, but practical, in focusing on new reforms spanning manufacturing and trade, foreign investment trends and bold initiatives in the financial, petroleum and banking sectors. Distribution, advertising and marketing issues are uniquely integrated across Indonesia's socio-cultural sensitivities together with the important area of dispute resolution.

As an indispensable member of ASEAN, APEC and other regional economic partnerships, Indonesia is becoming a pillar of economic strength and competitive advantage. Business Opportunities in Indonesia is an essential reference for potential international investors and global entrepreneurs, professional and government agencies, researchers and students.

From Chapter 1:

The REPUBLIC of Indonesia is a composite of over 17,500 islands which stretch from just west of Peninsular Malaysia along the equator some 5,000 kilometres to the northeast coast of Australia. Since 1985, the economy has been growing at more than 7.5% annually. The engines of this growth have been the efforts of approximately 200 million people from over 300 culturally diverse backgrounds, practising four major religions and geared to the fundamental cornerstones of the Indonesia Government which are grounded in unity, tolerance, equality and social harmony (INDIO, 1996) Indonesia is rich in natural resources and people. And, with the shift in economic development from heavy reliance on the oil and gas sector to the burgeoning manufacturing sector, nurturing substantial flows of foreign investment and welcoming the transfer of new technologies, Indonesia has awakened on the economic frontiers of the global economy. The Sixth Five-Year Development Plan (Repelita VI) unveiled in April 1994 promises to move the country even closer to the competitive standards demanded by the global economy. Nonetheless, there are challenges and issues looming on the distance which investors need to comprehend top take full advantage of the benefits which Indonesia offers. This chapter sketches a few of the major developments which have contributed to Indonesia's current status and then outlines the directions taken in the remaining chapters.
