Indonesia has the largest economy in South-
east Asia, and is one of the emerging market
economies of the world. It has a market-
based economy in which the government
plays a significant role by owning more than
164 state-owned enterprises and administers
prices on several basic goods, including fuel,
rice, and electricity. In the aftermath of the
financial and economic crisis that began in
mid-1997, the government took custody of a
significant portion of private sector assets
through acquisition of nonperforming bank
loans and corporate assets through the debt
