Why the World Pay Attention to Indonesia(2)

An Overview of Indonesia 

As a result of strengthened economic clout, Indonesia has been raising its voice in ASEAN. This also seems to be in line with changes in political landscape especially in the wake of the latest presidential election in 2014 from which the first civilian president came to office. 

Indonesia's color is not less unique in cultural and social aspect. It is no doubt that Indonesia represents a country of multi-culture and multi-race. As widely known, more than 300 ethnic groups with over 700 languages are observed in the territory.
 

This diversity is no exception in religious point of view. Though Indonesia has been considered as part of Islamic culture where around 85% of the population, some 210 million nationals are reported to be Muslims, religious freedom is preserved and protected under the constitution.
