8. Various Commodities
One of the main reasons behind Indonesia’s survival of the global crisis is its abundance and variety of commodities. That is a vital asset to the country.
Despite having 250 billion to feed, Indonesia manages to export 60% of its produced commodities. The country’s biggest commodity is palm oil. Among 60 million tons global production and reserves of palm oil, Indonesia takes part in producing more than half of it.
The second biggest commodity is geothermal energy. Indonesia produces 40% of the global production and reserves. Besides those, other main commodities are natural rubber, cocoa, rice, coffee, and many more.
Of course, this also gives any investors the abundance and variety of business to work on with a significant amount of revenue. For example, investing in Indonesia’s palm oil business gives you the chance of conquering 50% of the global palm oil business itself.
