Economy
Indonesia is Southeast Asia's largest economy and one of the world's most populous nations, a vast archipelago that has grown into a solidly middle-income country rich in natural resources.
Growth rests on commodities, a large domestic market, and manufacturing, and the country is leveraging its enormous nickel reserves to build an electric-vehicle battery industry. It is constructing a new capital, Nusantara, on Borneo.
Key sectors include mining and minerals (notably nickel, coal, and tin), palm oil (the world's top producer), oil and gas, textiles and footwear, and a fast-growing digital economy.
