SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
JUNE 30, 2008

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (UNAUDITED)
August 14, 2008
Dear Shareholder:
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, The Indonesia Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") had a decrease in its net asset value of -14.51%, vs. a decrease of -11.84% for the Morgan Stanley Capital International Indonesia Index (net dividends) (the "Index").* Based on market price, the Fund's shares decreased by -20.82% during the period. As a result, the Fund's discount to its net asset value stood at -13.70% on June 30, 2008, compared with a discount of 6.83% as of December 31, 2007.
Market Review: A period of contradictions
The semiannual period ended June 30, 2008, had a volatile start, but settled down in the second quarter. The weakness in banks, telecoms, industrials, and metals was offset by strength in commoditiesespecially palm oil and coal. In fact, Bumi Resources, Indonesia's largest listed coal company, is now the largest constituent in the Index and the local Jakarta Composite.
Inflation rose to double digits in May, reaching 10.4% as compared to April's 9.9%. July's Consumer Price Index (CPI), rebased to the year 2007 from 2002, was reported at 11.03%, though using the old method, it was probably more than 12%. Food, which accounts for more than 40% of the CPI, was the main culprit early in the year. The lifting of fuel subsidies in the second quarter increased the CPI in May, June and July. In fact, prices at the pump rose an average of 25%.
Bank Indonesia, the Central Bank, raised interest rates from 8% to 8.75%, but it was not enough to eradicate the negative real interest rate. Additionally, bond yields remain stubbornly high at 13%, where the market priced Government bonds before the Central Bank acted.
The stock market had a greater reaction to the bond market weakness than to the rate hike. It seems thatsimilar to the case in 2005, when fuel prices were also hiked subsequent to the falling bond and stock marketsit is the market itself that has caused the Central Bank and Government to act.
Strategic Review and Outlook: Expecting economic conditions to remain sustainable
The most significant detractor to performance came from our underweight position in the energy sector, specifically Bumi Resources (15.5% of the Fund as of June 30, 2008). As the Fund is constrained by the diversification rules necessary for qualifications as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, it cannot purchase any more of this stock and, therefore, is significantly underweight the Index. As this was the best performing stock in the sector, this underweight is substantially responsible for the Fund's underperformance of the Index. Though other coal-related investments were made, they were insufficient to offset this large underweight.
1
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
The other detractor to performance came from the property sector, where risk-averse investors sold the sector simply on account of rising bond yields.
Our underweight in materials, which had hurt the Fund's relative performance during all of 2007, actually contributed to the period's performance as the sector significantly underperformed the market. Additionally, our underweight to telecom services added to performance as competition eroded stock prices. Finally, our positions in the industrial sector lent some support to relative performance, but were insufficient to offset our underperformance.
We are positive on materials, mostly cement, due to infrastructure spending and the low stock valuations after the correction. Indonesia has comparative advantages in coal exports and crude palm oil productionthe Fund is positive on both counts. We have achieved better exposure in palm oil, while investments in coal related stocks are proving somewhat difficult due to the same rule we mentioned above (as it regulates sector as well as stock concentration); and the overwhelming weight of one stock, Bumi Resources.
We are positively positioned in basic food plays, but less so in telecommunications and materials. We remain positive on property as end-demand remains strong and banks have not restricted mortgages. Though high risk aversion in this sector has led to underperformance and low valuations, the Fund remains invested in this sector.
In our opinion, the economy is still adjusting to recent fuel price hikes. We believe the CPI will continue to be high. We also expect that wholesale price inflation (+25% year-over-year in April) will impact manufacturers more negatively as fuel costs are already at international market prices. We believe it is too early to call a peak in interest rates, and also too early to call the bottom of interest rate sensitive stocks.
The change to Boediono as Central Bank governor in May has provided some comfort, as he is perceived to be more proactive. We believe that politics should play larger role in the second half of the year. President Yudhoyono's popularity is sharply lower with at least one local survey (by Indo Barometer) indicating that opposition leader Megawati is ahead of the President by more than 10 percentage points.
We believe that polarizing sectors have kept market valuations from changing drastically. Coal/plantations is offsetting weakness elsewhere in the economy and, although coal names remain inexpensive (despite huge rallies), it is a very crowded trade. Banks are approaching good valuations, but we expect concerns over the impact of higher interest rates will be an overhang for the sector. Overall, we expect economic conditions will remain sustainable, thanks in part to the fact that government debt has now fallen to less than 50% of the gross domestic product.
2
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
Going forward, we will target areas where spending is a little more resilient to external economic conditions like infrastructure projects and rural consumption (which has been surprisingly strong). We are cautious with respect to telecommunications due to increasing competition and continued regulatory risk. Metals are losing favor and the Fund will remain underweight in that sector. We will be selective in consumers, choosing names mostly in basic food and lower end retail.

Credit Suisse may waive fees and/or reimburse expenses, without which performance would be lower. Waivers and/or reimbursements are subject to change and may be discontinued at any time. Returns represent past performance. Total investment return at net asset value is based on changes in the net asset value of fund shares and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any. Total investment return at market value is based on changes in the market price at which the fund's shares traded on the stock exchange during the period and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any, at actual prices pursuant to the fund's dividend reinvestment program. Because the fund's shares trade in the stock market based on investor demand, the fund may trade at a price higher or lower than its NAV. Therefore, returns are calculated based on share price and NAV.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
The current performance of the fund may be lower or higher than the figures shown. The fund's yield, return and market price and NAV will fluctuate. Performance information current to the most recent month-end is available by calling 800-293-1232.
The annualized gross and net expense ratios are 1.55%.

THE INDONESIA FUND, INC.
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2008 (unaudited)
NOTE A. ORGANIZATION
The Indonesia Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") was incorporated in Maryland on January 8, 1990 and commenced investment operations on March 9, 1990. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company.
NOTE B. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation:
The net asset value of the Fund is determined daily as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the "Exchange") on each day the Exchange is open for business. Equity investments are valued at market value, which is generally determined using the closing price on the exchange or market on which the security is primarily traded at the time of valuation (the "Valuation Time"). If no sales are reported, equity investments are generally valued at the most recent bid quotation as of the Valuation Time or at the lowest ask quotation in the case of a short sale of securities. Debt securities with a remaining maturity greater than 60 days are valued in accordance with the price supplied by a pricing service, which may use a matrix, formula or other objective method that takes into consideration market indices, yield curves and other specific adjustments. Debt obligations that will mature in 60 days or less are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates market value, unless it is determined that this method would not represent fair value. Investments in mutual funds are valued at the mutual fund's closing net asset value per share on the day of valuation.
Securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the Fund's Valuation Time, but after the close of the securities' primary market, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by, or under the direction of, the Board of Directors under procedures established by the Board of Directors. The Fund may utilize a service provided by an independent third party which has been approved by the Board of Directors to fair value certain securities. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. The Fund's estimate of fair value assumes a willing buyer and a willing seller neither acting under the compulsion to buy or sell.
The Fund adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements ("FAS 157"), effective January 1, 2008. In accordance with FAS 157, fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. FAS 157 established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including such a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the
14
THE INDONESIA FUND, INC.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2008 (unaudited)
assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
Level 1
quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2
other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3
significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2008 in valuing the Fund's investments carried at value:

* Other financial instruments include futures, forwards and swap contracts.
Short-Term Investment:
The Fund sweeps available cash into a short-term time deposit available through Brown Brothers Harriman & Co., the Fund's custodian. The short-term time deposit is a variable rate account classified as a short-term investment.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income:
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and U.S. income tax purposes. Interest income is accrued as earned; dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Taxes:
No provision is made for U.S. income or excise taxes as it is the Fund's intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders sufficient to relieve it from all or substantially all U.S. income and excise taxes.
Income received by the Fund from sources within Indonesia and other foreign countries may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by such countries.
During June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Interpretation 48 ("FIN 48" or the "Interpretation"),
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB statement 109.
The Fund has reviewed its' current tax positions and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund's financial statements. The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Foreign Currency Translations:
The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(I) market value of investment securities, assets and liabilities at the valuation date rate of exchange; and

(II) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
The Fund does not isolate that portion of gains and losses on investments in equity securities which is due to changes in the foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of equity securities. Accordingly, realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses with respect to such securities are included in the reported net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investment transactions balances.
The Fund reports certain foreign currency related transactions and foreign taxes withheld on security transactions as components of realized gains for financial reporting purposes, whereas such foreign currency related transactions are treated as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Net unrealized currency gains or losses from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities at period end exchange rates are reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation/depreciation in value of investments, and translation of other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses represent foreign exchange gains and losses from transactions in foreign currencies and forward foreign currency contracts, exchange gains or losses realized between the trade date and settlement date on security transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received.
Distributions of Income and Gains:
The Fund distributes at least annually to shareholders substantially all of its net investment income and net realized short-term capital gains, if any. The Fund determines annually whether to distribute any net realized long-term capital gains in excess of net realized short-term capital losses, including capital loss carryovers, if any. An additional distribution may be made to the extent necessary to avoid the payment of a 4% U.S. federal excise tax. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date.
The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for U.S. income tax purposes due to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles/tax differences in the character of income and expense recognition.
Other:
The Fund invests in securities of foreign countries and governments which involve certain risks in addition to those inherent in domestic investments. Such risks generally include, among others, currency risk (fluctuations in currency exchange rates), information risk (key information may be inaccurate or unavailable) and political risk (expropriation, nationalization or the imposition of capital or currency controls or punitive taxes). Other risks of investing in foreign securities include liquidity and valuation risks.
Securities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are subject to changes in value due to fluctuations in exchange rates.
Investment in Indonesian and other foreign securities requires consideration of certain factors that are not normally involved in investments in U.S. securities. The

Indonesian securities market is an emerging market characterized by a small number of company listings, high price volatility and a relatively illiquid secondary trading environment. These factors, coupled with restrictions on investment by foreigners and other factors, limit the supply of securities available for investment by the Fund. This will affect the rate at which the Fund is able to invest in Indonesian and other foreign securities, the purchase and sale prices for such securities and the timing of purchases and sales.
The limited liquidity of the Indonesian and other foreign securities markets may also affect the Fund's ability to acquire or dispose of securities at a price and time that it wishes to do so. Accordingly, in periods of rising market prices, the Fund may be unable to participate in such price increases fully to the extent that it is unable to acquire desired portfolio positions quickly; conversely the Fund's inability to dispose fully and promptly of positions in declining markets will cause its net asset value to decline as the value of unsold positions is marked to lower prices.
NOTE C. AGREEMENTS
Credit Suisse Asset Management, LLC ("Credit Suisse"), serves as the Fund's investment adviser with respect to all investments. Credit Suisse receives as compensation for its advisory services from the Fund, an annual fee, calculated weekly and paid quarterly, equal to 1.00% of the Fund's average weekly net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, Credit Suisse earned $494,315 for advisory services. Credit Suisse also provides certain administrative services to the Fund and is reimbursed by the Fund for costs incurred on behalf of the Fund (up to $20,000 per annum). For the six months ended June 30, 2008, Credit Suisse was reimbursed $1,051 for administrative services rendered to the Fund.
Credit Suisse Asset Management Limited ("Sub-Adviser") serves as the Fund's sub-investment adviser. Credit Suisse currently pays the Sub-Adviser on a quarterly basis a fee of 90% of the net quarterly amount received by Credit Suisse as the Fund's investment adviser. The Fund does not pay the Sub-Adviser.
Bear Stearns Funds Management Inc. ("BSFM") serves as the Fund's administrator. The Fund pays BSFM a monthly fee that is calculated weekly based on the Fund's average weekly net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, BSFM earned $34,388 for administrative services. Effective August 1, 2008, BSFM no longer serves as the Fund's administrator, and was replaced by Brown Brothers Harriman & Co.
Merrill Corporation ("Merrill"), an affiliate of Credit Suisse, has been engaged by the Fund to provide certain financial printing services. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, Merrill was paid $696 for its services to the Fund.
The Independent Directors receive fifty percent (50%) of their annual retainer in the form of shares. Beginning in 2008, the Independent Directors can elect to receive up to 100% of their annual retainer in shares of the Fund. Directors as a group own less than 1% of the Fund's outstanding shares.
NOTE D. CAPITAL STOCK
The authorized capital stock of the Fund is 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value. Of the 8,266,296 shares outstanding at June 30, 2008, Credit Suisse owned 7,169 shares.

NOTE E. INVESTMENT IN SECURITIES
For the six months ended June 30, 2008, purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term investments, were $19,030,886 and $19,380,277, respectively.
NOTE F. CREDIT FACILITY
The Fund, together with other funds/portfolios advised by Credit Suisse (collectively, the "Participating Funds"), participates in a $50 million committed, unsecured, line of credit facility ("Credit Facility") with Deutsche Bank, A.G. as administrative agent and syndication agent and State Street Bank and Trust Company as operations agent for temporary or emergency purposes. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Participating Funds pay an aggregate commitment fee at a rate of 0.10% per annum on the average unused amount of the Credit Facility, which is allocated among the Participating Funds in such manner as is determined by the governing Boards of the Participating Funds. In addition, the Participating Funds pay interest on borrowings at the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%. Effective June 2008, Deutsche Bank A.G. no longer serves as administrator and syndication agent to the credit facility. During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Fund had no borrowings under the Credit Facility.
NOTE G. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
At June 30, 2008, the identified cost for federal income tax purposes, as well as the gross unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost, gross unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value and the net unrealized appreciation from investments were $46,881,506, $46,548,694, $(3,339,928) and $43,208,766, respectively.
NOTE H. CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business, the Fund may provide general indemnifications pursuant to certain contracts and organizational documents. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.
NOTE I. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 2008, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161,
Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
("FAS
161"), an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. FAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and hedging activities are accounted for, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedging activities affect a fund's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Management of the Funds does not believe the adoption of FAS 161 will materially impact the financial statement amounts, but will require additional disclosures. This will include qualitative and quantitative disclosures on derivative positions existing at period end and the effect of using derivatives during the reporting period. FAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008.

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT AND CASH PURCHASE PLAN (UNAUDITED)
The Indonesia Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") offers a Dividend Reinvestment and Cash Purchase Plan (the "Plan") to its common stockholders. The Plan offers common stockholders a prompt and simple way to reinvest net investment income dividends and capital gains and other periodic distributions in shares of the Fund's common stock. Computershare Trust Company, N.A. ("Computershare") acts as Plan Agent for stockholders in administering the Plan.
Participation in the Plan is voluntary. In order to participate in the Plan, you must be a registered holder of at least one share of stock of the Fund. If you are a beneficial owner of the Fund having your shares registered in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee, you must first make arrangements with the organization in whose name your shares are registered to have the shares transferred into your own name. Registered shareholders can join the Plan via the Internet by going to www.computershare.com, authenticating your online account, agreeing to the Terms and Conditions of online "Account Access" and completing an online Plan Enrollment Form. Alternatively, you can complete the Plan Enrollment Form and return it to Computershare at the address below.
By participating in the Plan, your dividends and distributions will be promptly paid to you in additional shares of common stock of the Fund. The number of shares to be issued to you will be determined by dividing the total amount of the distribution payable to you by the greater of (i) the net asset value per share ("NAV") of the Fund's common stock on the payment date, or (ii) 95% of the market price per share of the Fund's common stock on the payment date. If the NAV of the Fund's common stock is greater than the market price (plus estimated brokerage commissions) on the payment date, then Computershare (or a broker-dealer selected by Computershare) shall endeavor to apply the amount of such distribution on your shares to purchase shares of Fund common stock in the open market.
You should be aware that all net investment income dividends and capital gain distributions are taxable to you as ordinary income and capital gain, respectively, whether received in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Fund's common stock.
The Plan also permits participants to purchase shares of the Fund through Computershare. You may invest $100 or more monthly, with a maximum of $100,000 in any annual period. Computershare will purchase shares for you on the open market on the 25th of each month or the next trading day if the 25th is not a trading day.
There is no service fee payable by Plan participants for dividend reinvestment. For voluntary cash payments, Plan participants must pay a service fee of $5.00 per transaction. Plan participants will also be charged a pro rata share of the brokerage commissions for all open market purchases ($0.03 per share as of October 2006). Participants will also be charged a service fee of $5.00 for each sale and brokerage commissions of $0.03 per share (as of October 2006).
You may terminate your participation in the Plan at any time by requesting a certificate or a sale of your shares held in the Plan. Your withdrawal will be effective immediately if your notice is received by Computershare prior to any dividend or distribution record date; otherwise, such termination will be effective only with respect to any subsequent dividend or distribution. Your dividend participation option will remain the same unless you withdraw all of your whole and fractional Plan shares, in which case your participation in the Plan will be terminated and you will receive subsequent dividends and capital gains distributions in cash instead of shares.
