(Jakarta, Indonesia) — Wading through the dense traffic of Jakarta, amid the towering skyscrapers, pristine tropical gardens and green-painted bicycle lanes, one can spot many billboards featuring Joko Widodo, the Indonesian president who's led the country since 2014. Indonesia is a booming Southeast Asian nation with a population of nearly 280 million. For Chinese visitors, the country and its people bear a strong resemblance to China in the late 1990s and early 2000s — almost exuberant in confidence as its economy moves onto a fast track of development.
