Hello reader,

The US/Israel strike against Iran over the weekend has all the makings of a prolonged conflict on a massive scale. As these global players play this dangerous game, what role can Indonesia, who notably recently signed up to join the US’ Board of Peace, play?

One of peacemaker, President Prabowo thinks. But perhaps we’re too small to be reckoned with on the global stage, reckons a former VP. More on that, and possible economic effects from the conflict, below.

Cheers,

Andra
