byhera (ordinary) | 152 comments let me give you all some important pics.
1. map of indonesia : http://sukarnosuryatmojo.files.wordpr...
2. Flag : http://politikana.com/images/medium/1...
3. Icon : http://didikbudiarto.files.wordpress....

indonesia's location is in south east of Asia. we have 5 big islands such as : Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, sulawesi, and Irian Jaya.

the president of Indonesia now is Mr. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. Indonesia gained its independence on 17 August in 1945. Capital of Indonesia is Jakarta. Indonesia alone has 33 provinces, and every province has its own customs and culture, and have a different language.

Because Indonesia passed the equator, then Indonesia has only 2 seasons, namely: the rainy season and summer.

thts a simple info. if you have any qustion. i'am so glad to tell you the truth of Indonesia. ^.-
