Is a location that offers a better alternative (closer to residence and cheaper transportation costs).

Indonesia's astronomical location: 95°E-141°E and 6°N-11°S

Geographical location of Indonesia: Indonesia is located between two continents, namely the continent of Asia which is located to the north of Indonesia and the continent of Australia which is located to the south of Indonesia. In addition, Indonesia is located between 2 oceans, namely: the Pacific Ocean to the east of Indonesia and the Indian Ocean to the west of Indonesia.

Indonesian borders:

a. In the north, Indonesia is bordered by Malaysia, Singapore, Palau, the Philippines, and the South China Sea/North Natuna Sea.

b. To the south, Indonesia is bordered by Timor Leste, Australia and the Indian Ocean.

c. In the west, Indonesia is bordered by the Indian Ocean.

d. To the east, Indonesia is bordered by Papua New Guinea and the Pacific Ocean.

The influence of Indonesia's geographical location on the economic, social and cultural fields:

a. Positive influence: Social interaction through trade then became a way for the entry of various religions into Indonesia. Indonesia, which is rich in natural resources, sells various commodities or agricultural products, and other plantation products to European countries, China and other countries.

b. Negative Influence: Cultures from other countries that are not always in accordance with Indonesian culture then enter and affect the cultural life of the Indonesian nation. In addition, Indonesia is also vulnerable to the entry of smuggled prohibited items such as firearms and drugs.

5 Forest benefits/functions:

1) Storing rainwater and then draining it into rivers and lakes, so that during the dry season there is no drought.

2) A place to live for flora and fauna that are a source of food and medicine at present and in the future.

3) Prevent erosion or erosion because rainwater does not fall directly to the ground and erode fertile soils.

4) Produces Oxygen (O²) and absorbs Carbon dioxide (CO²), so that the earth's temperature is controlled.

5) The source of life for the community, especially the community around the forest from the products they produce.

5 Petroleum producing regions in Indonesia:

1) Sumatra: Peureulak and Lhokseumawe (Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam), Pakning and Dumai rivers (Riau), Plaju, Gerong River, and Muara Enim (South Sumatra).

What are the consequences of an unequal population? Because in an area some have developed and some have not.
