This Country Commercial Guide (CCG) presents a comprehensive look at Indonesia's commercial environment using economic, political and market analysis. The CCGs were established by the recommendation of the Trade Promotion Coordinating Committee (TPCC), a multi-agency task force, to consolidate various reporting documents prepared for the U.S. business community. Country Commercial Guides are prepared annually at U.S. Embassies through the combined efforts of several U.S. Government agencies.
