BBC World Service - Business Matters, Indonesia Special

A special edition of the programme live from Jakarta.

A special look at the economic challenges, transport conundrums and musical opportunities in one of the World's most populous countries.

In this special edition of the programme live from the Indonesian capital Jakarta, we'll get under the skin of how people make a living in one of the planet's most populous countries. 

One week one on from the deadly earthquake and tsunami, we'll hear about the continuing humanitarian challenges in Sulawesi. 

We take Indonesia's economic temperature with the nation's finance minister Sri Mulyani, brave the chaotic Jakarta rush hour to look for transport solutions on one of the world's busiest commutes and meet the Indonesian music star looking to go global. 

Jon Bithrey is joined throughout the programme by Indonesia's former finance minister turned university lecturer Muhamad Chatib Basri, and by entrepreneur and founder of consulting firm Kennedy Voice and Berliner, Dian Noeh Abubakar.
