For connoisseurs of geography and fans of the culture of the “first world countries”: Indonesia is the largest state with a population of 270,000,000 people. The fourth largest country in the world by population, Indonesia is also a powerhouse in terms of industry. The factories of Mitsubishi, Honda, Toyota, Daihatsu, Nissan, Hyundai, General Motor, Suzuki and VW are located there. In short, an abundance of a wide variety of wheeled vehicles – from motorcycles to cars.
A large number of different spare parts and components are also produced in Indonesia. For example, the venture of the infamous delirium Denso. In Russia, however, we mainly know Indonesian goods from the shelf of a tire shop: quite a lot of tires are produced there, including Goodyear and Hankook, which are popular and well known in our country.
The creation of such an economic union, and there is no other name for a free trade zone, will affect not only prices, but also the assortment. Consequently, long-forgotten competition, discounts and special promotions will begin. The market of the seller who orders music is finally a thing of the past and is turning into a buyer’s market.
One can only hope that the trend will not only not change, but will pick up the wind in its sails – Russia is a rich and attractive country, a holy place is never empty, and European business has pretty much warmed up the seat. We are sure that global Asia will not let it cool down.
