But the irony of all of Indonesia's wealth does not necessarily enjoyed by its inhabitants. Many of Indonesia's population are still living below the poverty line.

Most all of Indonesia's natural resources enjoyed by foreign countries. In addition the majority of Indonesia's natural resources in exports to developed countries in the form of crude and subsequently repurchased by Indonesia in the form of finished goods at higher prices. It certainly lead to an imbalance between revenues and expenditures.

Here are five countries in the world that is rich because of the wealth of Natural Indonesia:

United States of America

The company's investment reached $ 12.1 billion. Results of gas that they can be 60 per cent is exported to countries in Asia Pacific and the rest is distributed to Indonesia.

PLN's gas supply needs are also provided by British Petroleum. The cooperation stipulated in a memorandum to of Understanding (MoU) for the supply of liquefied natural gas amounted to PLN 230 MMSCFD. The British company is currently strives to seek other strategic natural resources sector, particularly in the field of environmentally friendly industries.

France

The country is famous for the Eiffel Tower has indeed been a long time partner in Indonesia through brand Total. Total E & P Indonesia manage the Mahakam gas block in East Kalimantan. The company is working with Inpex Corp. to manage the Mahakam block. Both companies share equally share control of their 50:50.

In 2008 Total submitted a proposal for a contract extension because they want to invest more time in Indonesia. And in 2013, they predicted revenue of $ 8.92 billion. In addition to Total, the French company other partner in Indonesia is Eranet, which concentrates on the mining of nickel.

Canada

So what is obtained Indonesia?

It's been so much natural wealth continues to be managed and enjoyed by foreign countries. The local residents are located in areas where natural resources are not able to enjoy it. Most of them just become workers in foreign companies in Indonesia ride. As if being a guest in their own home-esteem of local residents seemed to be trampled by other countries that continue to undermine Indonesia's wealth.

Who is wrong?

Obviously you as an intelligent reader can see the facts that occurred, the lack of cooperation and trust by the government to the indigenous population to trigger a foreign country to enter Indonesia. Yet when examined more deeply, many Indonesian people are smart.

Indonesia can be said residents can manage their own what is owned by Indonesia. But yes so the lack of confidence and even make the government support Indonesia's population go abroad for a better life.

BOROBUDUR

Who does not know Borobudur? Building the archaeological sites in the world's largest Buddhist temple was once a part of  Seven's World Wonder  which of course very familiar sound in the ears of the whole world. But behind the greatness of the name and the architectural beauty of the building, it still holds some mysteries Borobudur. Intrigued by the mysteries of these? Go see the full story below.

1. The  origin of the name "Borobudur"

Over the centuries, Borobudur was buried away in a mound. But in 1814, the British Governor General when it was served, Thomas Stamford Raffles, began to pay attention to Borobudur. Raffles also the first person who wrote the name "Borobudur" in his book entitled "History of Java". Until now, nobody knows the origin of the name of the temple which is currently buried in a mound of earth that actually looks like a hill full of bushes overgrown by many trees.

2.  BASIC MATERIALS AND TECHNOLOGY USED

Mysteriousness of Borobudur is also recognized by Purnomo Siswoprasetjo who is Managing Director of Taman Wisata Candi (TWC) Brorobudur Prambanan Ratu Boko (Persero). Purnomo explained one mystery that still surrounds Borobudur is how construction. Because the origin of the large rocks into the manufacture of the temple as well as the technology used for lifting and laying the stones to be able to produce a stunning stately building that is still a mystery unsolved.

Not only that, according to some archaeologists, a stone carving and sculpting is still a big question mark that has yet to be solved. They are still searching "artist workshop" to ensure a carving and sculpting rocks are very large and the very large number.

3.  LOCATION BOROBUDUR LAKE IS ANCIENT?

Conscious or not, if you consider the location of the Borobudur temple turned out to be in a place that is "unusual". It is located on a hill surrounded by two pairs of twin mountains, namely Sindoro-cleft and Merbabu-Merapi. In fact, other temples built on flat land just ordinary. Actually, in 1931, an artist and expert on Buddhist architecture named WOJ Nieuwnkamp had proposed a theory that Kedu Mainland (which is the location of Borobudur in Java legend) is an ancient lake. According to him, Borobudur was built based symbol lotus flower floating on the lake surface. But the hypothesis is still being debated scientists at that time.

In his book entitled "The Geology of Indonesia", a scientist named Van Bemmelen also mentioned that pyroclastics of Merapi had erupted massively in 1006 has covered the lake Borobudur thus making the lake dried up and disappeared into history.

Purnomo (Director of Taman Wisata Candi (TWC) Brorobudur Prambanan Ratu Boko (Persero) mentioned in point 2) also gave his opinion on the alleged Borobudur was built in the middle of this ancient lake. According to him around the temple there is a well salty. But the salty wells are not located in all regions, only at certain points only.

He also mentioned that the question of the Van Bammelen attract the attention of foreign scientists so as to make them come and conduct special research to uncover the truth of the ancient lake that is still a mystery. Usually they stay for one to two weeks there.

One way to uncover the mystery is by examining the rivers located in the neighborhood of the temple, including the Progo and Elo and the people living around the temple.
