 Indonesia Investment Business Forum

a business facilitation forum where the International Investors/Business Practitioners will have a series of business meetings and events with Regional (and National) Decision Makers, as well as Business Entities.

 

Business in Asia - Why Indonesia?
Indonesia is a rich, ethnically diverse island state with a very large population.
Internal markets for consumer goods are large and offer opportunities for many consumer goods firms. Indonesia has a large and well developed petroleum industry that adds to government wealth. Indonesia is just starting to emerge from the crony capitalism that has existed for most of the time since independence.
Wage rates are relatively low and if social stability can be maintained the
opportunities for profitable investment will be significant.

 

Business & Investment Opportunities in Indonesia

In more recent decades Indonesia has seen major investments by
large multinationals, small businessmen and individuals.
This page will highlight selected business opportunities in Indonesia
open to both expatriates and Indonesian nationals.

Indonesia finance minister resigns for World Bank post

BBC: 5 May 2010

Indonesia's Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati has been appointed managing director of the World Bank.
Accepting her resignation, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono praised her success in reforming the economy and said he would "truly miss" her.

Ms Indrawati has largely been credited with steering South East Asia's largest economy through the financial crisis.

Investor concern
Ms Indrawati will be second-in-command at one of the most influential financial institutions in the world once she takes up her new post on 1 June.
She will be in charge of three main regions - Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East and North Africa and East Africa and the Pacific.
