I created this thread in the hope of assisting expats with common issues they face in Indonesia but it's only a guide, not a manual. Each picture link send you to a subsection with a series of topics. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1846/30384059868_bf0d466cb5.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1874/44202500122_7a51086595.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1862/43533853354_68fc414938.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1851/44267308721_8bb6735014.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1871/30401906348_33c523bc7c.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1865/29316123837_9e5cba339a.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1877/30384717358_95e16cbb9a.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1867/30445217218_11f73d6316.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1850/42514004160_2b6284d8d1_z.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1852/42459203630_11b4d521cf.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1849/30400070608_5d85733d87.jpg https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1871/43549308504_623b3613d7.jpg

Hi @Fred,

I had a question, are there certain industries that are blocked or restricted for foreigners to work in in Indonesia?

If yes, could you send me the link or government article number that references this?

Thanks.
