This information comes from the assessment conducted in country for the Indonesia report, which was published in November 2007. The 1997 economic crisis in Southeast Asia affected the entire region, but devastated Indonesia in particular. The crisis culminated in political upheaval.

In the aftermath, as the corruption and poor governance of the recent past became more fully exposed, a new commitment to democracy and strengthened institutions emerged.
