IQ scores, PISA scores, nonself citations per capita in STEM disciplines, high tech exports per capita, TIMSS scores, don't all lie.
No ASEAN country barring Singapore (excl oil rich Brunei) has escaped the middle income trap, not immensely resource rich nations like Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam or the other ASEAN members.
Even China has yet to escape that trap.
Many Latin American countries have been ensared in that trap for decades and their outlooks have not been worse than Indonesia in any way. They are more developed countries than Indonesia across the board. In terms of education, infrastructure, science or technology output per capita. GDP per capita and what have you.
Stop deluding yourself. Nobody considers Indonesia a leader of ASEAN.
Look at the Rohingya crisis. Look at the SCS. There is no effective ASEAN response. The whole idea of ASEAN as a coherent body does not depict reality and here you are dreaming about Indonesian leadership. As if any ASEAN member would accept Indonesia, reliant on maid and natural resources exports, as a leader of ASEAN.
You can't even provide adequate nutrition, sanitation, electricity, education, healthcare for your citizens yet.
And here you are daydreaming about international leadership. IQ scores really don't lie.
If some of you knew what went on in Bali, Jakarta or Batam where Singaporean elderly men go to relieve themselves of stress, I doubt you would be elated about this supposedly "Islamic brother" of yours.
Looks like you are another teenager.
GlobalfirePower?
seasia.co? That is "Good News from Indonesia"?
Fertility rates.
And a bunch of other irrelevant indices.
Goes to show PISA scores, TIMSS scores, IQ scores, nonself citations per capita, high tech exports per capita etc don't lie.
I doubt most of our Muslim friends here would classify Indonesia as Muslim if they knew what went on in Bali, Jakarta, Batam and elsewhere across Indonesia.
They have the world's 4th largest population.
Every country with more than 250 million people have crossed that $1 trillion threshold earlier. If you didn't know, that amounts to a mere $4,000 GDP per capita a year.
I'm sure the Arab world despite all the troubles and wars for decades has a much bigger economy than Indonesia.
Indonesia is not special in anyway amongst the Muslims either. It's just that it's the biggest OIC country, by population.
And benefited from its location next to Singapore, Australia and from being a member of ASEAN. Much like Malaysia, as well.
