Reviews

'The text addresses an important topic during a critical period of Indonesian history. Scholars of political economy will undoubtedly appreciate Chua's broad knowledge of business relations while scholars of ethnicity will enjoy his careful attention to the dilemmas of the Chinese-Indonesian community. On the whole, Chinese Big Business in Indonesia: The State of Captial is a good first book by a newly minted scholar of Indonesia.' - Jeremy Menchik, Journal of Contemporary Asia, Vol. 40, No. 2 (2010) 'Altogether it is an excellent piece of research on Indonesia.' -- Gerhard Kraft, ASEAS, 2010
