The New Market Indonesia

Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: With a surface of over 5 million square-kilometres and a population of almost 200 million inhabitants, Indonesia is the largest country of Southeast Asia and the fourth largest country of the world. The Indonesian economy is characterized by a strong, steady growth. Over the past few years, the industrial production, as well as the gross national product have steadily increased in double-digit percentages and a similar growth rate has been prognosticated for the years to come. The increase in purchase power and the population's propensity to consume, which follow from this, will further affect the infrastructure, which is still insufficient to a large extent.
