Indonesian politicians and business experts, along with their Japanese counterparts, discussed investment opportunities in Southeast Asia's most populous country at a recent symposium in Tokyo.

The "Indonesian Business Forum," was organized by the ASEAN-Japan Centre, the Indonesian Embassy and the Investment Coordinating Board of the Republic of Indonesia. Hundreds of attendees, mainly Japanese doing business in Indonesia, packed the venue.

The Indonesian economy has been steadily growing and Japanese investment into the country has been increasing rapidly. Japanese companies view the country not only as a production center, but also as its people gain wealth, as one of the largest markets.
