I can't imagine what governing this would be like - Surfrider - 10-24-2012

"Southeast Asia’s largest economy sprawls across more than 17,000 islands, with 300 ethnic groups, 742 languages and dialects."

17,000 islands!

742 languages and dialects!

Holy smoke, I don't envy those guys.

The Phillipines aren't far behind (and my original guess as to where this was about)... 7,000+ islands, slightly lower per capita GDP, population 90 million vs Indonesia's 240 million.
