This is because our country is vast, and it isn't easy to develop many parts of Indonesia compared to a developed country such as Singapore, South Korea, or Japan.

这是因为我们国家幅员辽阔,与新加坡、韩国或日本这样的发达国家相比,印度尼西亚的很多地区都不容易发展起来。


The size of Indonesia is compared to Europe on an old Dutch map.

在一张旧的荷兰地图上,印度尼西亚的面积与欧洲相当。

Indonesia is an archipelagic country with at least 17,000 islands, including five main islands: Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Sulawesi, and Papua. There are 30 more minor archipelagos, and around 6,000 islands are inhabited. Indonesia is huge, diverse, and, most importantly, geographically disconnected, making construction difficult and costly, which is necessary for improving the living conditions of the people around it.

印度尼西亚是一个群岛国家,至少有17000个岛屿,包括五个主要岛屿:爪哇、苏门答腊、婆罗洲、苏拉威西和巴布亚。还有30多个小群岛,大约6000个岛屿有人居住。印度尼西亚幅员辽阔,地域多样,最重要的是,地理位置分散,这使得建设变得困难和昂贵,而这是改善周围人民生活条件的必要条件。

Did you know that back then, it was much cheaper for Indonesians to travel to Europe than to Papua, which is part of Indonesia? In 2023, the plane ticket route Jakarta Jayapura or Jakarta Timika will cost around Rp20 million. Meanwhile, the plane ticket route from Jakarta to Amsterdam will cost around Rp12 million.
Thankfully, the situation has improved today, but you still get the point.


你知道吗,那时候,印度尼西亚人去欧洲旅行比去巴布亚便宜得多,巴布亚是印度尼西亚的一部分。2023年,雅加达查亚普拉或雅加达蒂米卡的机票价格约为2000万印尼盾。与此同时,从雅加达到阿姆斯特丹的机票价格约为1200万印尼盾。
谢天谢地,如今情况已经有所改善了,但你依然能明白其中的要点。

So you get the point. Indonesia is the largest economy in Southeast Asia. Of course, we were in the 1 trillion dollar club. However, we still have a long way to go to close the disparity gap between our regions so that Indonesia can achieve that developed status you're asking for.

所以你要知道,印度尼西亚是东南亚最大的经济体。当然了,我们也曾跻身万亿美元经济体俱乐部。不过,要缩小我们各地区之间的差距,让印度尼西亚达到你们所期望的发达状态,我们还有很长的路要走。
