What are things that represent Indonesia?


I need to come up with 15 products that represent Indonesia. These 15 things must represent a unique aspect of Indonesia and they can be basically anything.

That first poster was so wrong, Toyota is a Japanese company and KIjang while it's in Indonesian, but that type of car has been sold in other countries like India and S Africa under different names.
In no particular order:
1. The food (spices, chillies, coconuts, Indonesian fruits like Rambutan and Salak, etc).
2. Batik
3. The wooden craftmanship that you see a lot in furnitures, and also in handicrafts.
4. Coffee, Sumatran coffee is one of the world's best known coffee.
5. Silver handicraft
6. Indomie, instant noodles, exported worldwide
7. Swallow Bird's nests, from the Sumatra area, is exported worldwide, mostly to Chinese communities in Singapore/HK.
8. Rattan materials, a material made for furniture, handicrafts, bags, fashion accessories, etc.
9. Paintings, by famous artists like Affandi
10. Indonesian music and musical instruments, like gamelan


You can expand more of the items above, for example there is a lot more to derive from food and wooden products. I'm sure you can get to more than 15 just by using the list above. Good luck!
