Indonesia, with some
230 million people, is the most populous nation by far in Southeast
Asia. Those people present a vast wealth of cultural diversity.
And the hundreds of islands that they occupy contain an equally
vast wealth of natural resources. Indonesia is a nation alive
with potential. Helping to fulfill that potential are nearly
a score of Mitsubishi companies. |

Highlighting
Mitsubishi Corporation's diverse
activity in Indonesia is a big new plant (photo) that began
producing ammonia last year in Bontang, East Kalimantan. That
plant--constructed by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries--exports its
output to customers in other Asian nations and beyond, who use
the ammonia mainly as a raw material for making synthetic fibers.
Mitsubishi Corporation's industrial operations
in Indonesia also include a pair of plants in Jakarta that manufacture
components for automotive engines and process steel plate. Mitsubishi
Corporation subsidiaries produce the seaweed extract carrageenan
and the sweetener sorbitol in Pasuran. The company also operates
a chemical tank yard in Jakarta. Managing Mitsubishi Corporation's
far-reaching operations in Indonesia are representative offices
in Jakarta and Surabaya.
