I don't know a whole lot about it. I'd like to visit someday, though. It seems mysterious and exotic:)

Unfortunately, the world does not know as much about Indonesia as it should.
Indonesia, officially the Republic of Indonesia (Indonesian: Republik Indonesia), is a nation of islands consisting of almost 18,000 islands located in the South East Asian Archipelago. Jakarta, formerly known as Batavia, is Indonesia's capital. Indonesia (from Greek: indus = India nesos = islands) is the world's largest archipelagic nation, bordered by the nations of Papua New Guinea, East Timor, and Malaysia. This nation is home to more than 200 million people, and thus is the most populous Muslim-majority nation in the world and the fourth most populous overall.

I believe that most Americans see Indonesia as a "relatively moderate" Islamic country. As an Islamic country, Americans are pretty much scared of them all, but Indonesia seems to be more moderate than most.
I'm not saying the above impression is an accurate one, but I think it is what many Americans believe. I've known several Indonesians, and they were actually wonderful people, and their religion was never an issue.

Hi
I'm an Australian so we deal with many similar problems in the region.
Australian's see Indonesia as a volatile nation at the minute, our government seems to o anything it can not to offend you.
We feel that there are many parts of Indonesia that harbour terrorist organisations that are also a threat to us.
I guess we see you as a threat, your hostility after we allowed 40 asylum seekers into our country as well as you government releasing the man behind the Bali bombings after only 2 years in gaol compounds this viewpoint.

Unfortunately, in America, the news media often link your country with Al-Queda, but from what I've seen of your country from pictures on the news and in books, it looks like a very beautiful place.
