If you’re an Australian business looking to export goods to a brand-new market, it makes perfect sense to consider Indonesia as a destination country. Why? Well, for starters, it’s the largest nation in southeast Asia – in fact, it’s achieving growth rates of around 5% per year. By 2030, it’s predicted to be the seventh-largest economy in the world. Sounds like a good place to invest, doesn’t it?
