Description

Author/Publisher: Defense Language InstitutePages: 31Date: 2006Language: English, IndonesianLocated in Southeast Asia, the Republic of Indonesia is the world’s largest archipelago country. Its more than 17,000 islands straddle the Equator, sweeping in a vast arc from the Malay Peninsula to the eastern portion of New Guinea. The country is strategically located astride vital sea lanes in the region, and the shallow seas between many of the islands are a significant resource of offshore petroleum, natural gas, and other minerals. Indonesia's approximately 242 million people make it theworld’s fourth largest nation. To say that its ethnic, cultural, and linguistic diversity is great is anunderstatement. There are about 300 ethnic groups that make up Indonesian society, and again as many languages and dialects.
