RechargExpo Southeast Asia 2011Will again be Held in Jakarta ---www.rechargeasia.com
Yes! RechargExpo Southeast Asia 2011will once again be held in Jakarta, Indonesia, on September 14-16. This year’s show will be held at the Jakarta International Event and Exhibition Center (“JITEC”). JITEC is a new venue, centrally located in the heart of Jakarta, adjacent to Jakarta’s largest computer center where clients come from all over in search of computer and printer supplies.
Often said the second time is a charm, RechargExpo Southeast Asia 2011 is sure to charm its exhibitors and visitors for the second year in a row. Consider these hard facts: Indonesia, inhabited by 237 million people, is the 4th most populous country on the globe. With a GDP of USD$700 billion, its untapped business growth potential is astounding. This population base, together with its fast-paced growth, have set the foundation of enormous potential for your business. This region in Southeast Asia, unlike China and India which are heavily studied by countless marketing experts, has not yet received the expected media exposure. It does, however, offer a growth rate far faster than one would expect. Your business’ future lies here—do not neglect the power of an emerging economy and its correspondent emerging opportunities!
Indonesia - the new economic shining STAR!
According to a World Bank report, "Global Development Horizons 2011—Multipolarity: The New Global Economy," "The world economy is in the midst of a transformative change. One of the most visible outcomes of this transformation is the rise of a number of dynamic emerging market countries to the helm of the global economy. It is likely that, by 2025, emerging economies—such as Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, and the Russian Federation—will be major contributors to global growth, alongside the advanced economies. As they pursue growth opportunities abroad and encouraged by improved policies at home, corporations based in emerging markets are playing an increasingly prominent role in global business and cross-border investment"
“The fast rise of emerging economies has driven a shift whereby the centers of economic growth are distributed across developed and developing economies—it’s a truly multi-polar world,” said Justin Yifu Lin, the World Bank’s chief economist.
Indonesia’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KADIN) has predicted that the national economy could grow 7 percent in 2011, higher than the government’s expectation of 6 -6.5 percent. Additionally, The Jakarta Post recently adds the following: "Facts show that Indonesia was one of the few that continued to make positive growth in the past few years, including during the last global financial turbulence (2008). A combination of Indonesia’s positive GDP growth, improving investment climate, stable macro-economic policies and domestic political stability have made Indonesia a very attractive investment destination for foreign investors. With the total GDP of around US$700 billion, Indonesia is also the largest economy in Southeast Asia and in that regard plays an active role in shaping the agenda within the regional frameworks such as ASEAN, ASEAN+3, ARF, East Asia Summit and APEC. Better still, Indonesia is now a member of the G-20 that has become the prime-mover for international economic cooperation. This is clear evidence of the international recognition of our rising economic power."

China and Indonesia—Fortune Befriends the Bold.
The Chinese population in Indonesia.
Many Chinese traders and merchants settled in Indonesia long before the Dutch arrived in the early 17th century. In the 2000 population census, it was estimated that the number of ethnic Chinese in Indonesia totaled more than 2.4 million. With China’s economic rise in the world economy, the bond and trading activities between the two countries has been further developed. Indonesia and China signed the Joint Declaration on Strategic Partnership in 2005 and the Plan of Action in 2010, boosting bilateral cooperation in the fields of economy, politics and socio-culture.
China now emerges as the largest trading partner of Indonesia, while Indonesia is one of the biggest trading partners for China. Last year, the two-way trade volume stood at US$42.7 billion, a much larger increase compared to the prior year (US$28.3 billion). Further, the newly set trade target is to reach US$80 billion by 2015. The Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao’s recent visited to Indonesia has further solidified the bilateral ties, with both leaders emphasizing the importance of promoting mutually beneficial cooperation benefitting the two countries.
