Indonésie — Dossier militaire

MBB · 64/100 — La note Magna est notre composite 0–100 de la puissance nationale structurelle — cinq dimensions, plus de 100 indicateurs. C'est l'évaluation propre du Bureau, pas un miroir des chiffres de la Banque mondiale ou de la CIA.

Momentum +4 — Momentum trimestriel : la lecture du Bureau sur la trajectoire du pays au dernier trimestre, de −10 (dégradation rapide) à +10 (accélération).

La continuité a été le mot du trimestre : le programme de repas gratuits a dépassé les 60 millions de bénéficiaires et la nouvelle capitale poursuit sa montée, sans perturbation majeure.

Le momentum indonésien repose sur un pays grand, jeune et non aligné — ce trimestre a ajouté des briques régulières à un long mur.
