About our Indonesia news

Latest news on Indonesia, providing comprehensive coverage of Southeast Asia's largest economy, politics, natural disasters, environmental issues, and cultural developments across the archipelago.

Indonesia, the world's fourth most populous nation with over 278 million people spread across more than 17,000 islands, stands as a pivotal player in global affairs. The country, led by newly-elected President Prabowo Subianto, represents Southeast Asia's largest economy with a GDP exceeding US$1.3 trillion and maintains significant influence in ASEAN.

Current developments in Indonesia centre around economic transformation, with the ongoing construction of Nusantara, the new capital city in East Kalimantan. The ambitious US$35 billion project aims to redistribute economic activity away from Jakarta, which faces severe environmental challenges including rapid subsidence. The country's transition to renewable energy, management of critical mineral resources, and efforts to balance economic growth with environmental protection remain key focus areas.

Indonesian culture continues to flourish globally, with traditional art forms like batik and gamelan music gaining international recognition. The country's thriving digital economy has produced multiple unicorn startups, including GoTo and Traveloka, while its creative industry, particularly in fashion and film, increasingly gains international attention. Local initiatives to preserve indigenous knowledge and promote sustainable tourism across the archipelago demonstrate Indonesia's commitment to cultural heritage.

The nation's journey from Dutch colonial rule to becoming the world's third-largest democracy reflects its resilience and diversity. The 'Unity in Diversity' (Bhinneka Tunggal Ika) motto remains central to Indonesian identity, helping maintain harmony among hundreds of ethnic groups and languages. The country's strategic location along major maritime trade routes has historically shaped its development as a crucial crossroads of global commerce and cultural exchange.
