i concur about indonesia, much of their army is a paramilitary force, policing duties etc.
they do have a navy that is reasonably new and about twice ours in numbers, and similar their airforce is about twice ours and of equivalent age.
they have little or no airlift capacity for a serious invasion, but they do have a reasonable capacity to deploy by sea a substantial force.
while we don't really fear a threat of invasion by indonesia, should it ever become a 'rogue nation', it is capable of deploying small terrorist units, assault groups, demolitions experts etc, and could seriously damage our mining, agriculture, water, electricity resources.
not just indonesia, any country.
in fact our defence have moved from a decentralised supply system to a centralised supply system to emulate industry, which means one whack and our capacity to fight is seriously damaged.
sigh.
no one ever listens...
