Indonesia: Decades from now...

by Sam Roggeveen - 29 May 2012 3:05PM

This post is part of a debate - click here to see how this debate started and developed.

Our resident Indonesia expert Dave McRae interviewed Professor Hugh White recently about the long-term future of Indonesia, a future in which it will be stronger than Australia.

The theme here is similar to those in Hugh's most recent post in our debate thread on Indonesia: what will it mean for Australia to live next door to what will be a great power?
