In America it is too-NEE-zhuh and indo-NEE-zhuh. (The uh is the same sound as in "cut", the ee is the same sound as in "knee"). The "siya" pronunciation is called a "spelling pronunciation" where someone sees something spelled and thinks that they have to pronounce it that way. The truth is that the "i" in the ending IS there--it combines with the "s" to make the "zh" sound.

I am a native Indonesian and have been teaching both Indonesian and English languages in High Schools and Colleges, in Indonesia, Malaysia and Australia.
The correct pronunciation for Indonesia is Indo-nay-seeya
and for Tunisia is Too-nee-seeya.

doesn't really matter. Tu·ni·sia [ too neezha ], Indonesia [ indo neezha ]. from encarta.

For me, they are In-do-ne-sia and Tu-ne-sia respectively. Have a Merry Christmas!
