Indonesia’s country profile is Clinical Medicine–led, like the United States at a much smaller n, and unlike the Enabling-led Malaysia, China, and India files. Indonesia’s Clinical slice (58) is smaller than Malaysia’s 174. See the Malaysia field-strengths cluster, the China field-strengths cluster, and the India field-strengths cluster.
Indonesia’s national share is 0.11% of the single-year country-analytics cohort (247,376 researchers; 170 countries). Malaysia is 0.38%; India is 2.81%.
