Whilst there are local Indonesian members of this forum, it is primarily intended for expats so your suggestion is likely to be illegal.
For an expat to be involved in an Indonesian company as a partner, it has to be a PT PMA, and that requires a notable investment, very likely a lot more than you're proposing.
Any expat getting involved in a business on the Island of the gods absolutely has to follow the law or risk a 100% loss of any invested money and probable deportation.

Thank you for your explanation, Mr. Fred. I really appreciate it.
I am newcomer here so I thought following the rule would be the best way. Let's regard it as
my first mistake in this forum. And I apologize.
And your explanation about legal aspect for expat regarding business, surely I have to learn more about it. However, what I meant I am looking for a good and trusted partner to discuss about starting a small business, so this will very very beginning phase.
However, if it is still not possible, a good job with promising career step relates with my expertise, I would be happily discuss the opportunity.
Have a nice day 
Regards,
Leika

Hi, Adrianix. Welcome to expat.com. I am Leika and I am Indonesian.
I live in Samarinda, East Kalimantan.
Nice to know you 
This is Hasib, from Bangladesh, working and living at Tarutung, in North Sumatra. would like to know people and communities in here.

The story so far.........I was dragged kicking and screaming my first time to Bali [Ubud]. And, as per most of you-fell hard for the place. Could NOT shake it. Fast forward 13 years later, and 5,000 trips back and forward over that time [every 6-8 weeks!!!], I'm renting a villa for a year to trial my new life.
Just found out today that my villa is set to go WOOHOOO, so bloody excited to get there. May not be for a couple of months, as I wrap things up here. My sister and her partner have already moved there, so that makes things easier. And have already got an amazing network of great friends there...lucky me.
I'm a nutritionist, that has all sorts of plans in that regard.
Love to connect with all of you, Let the games begin!
I am ex-WNI. Left the country in 1999 and now back

I am/was a Mathematician. Having spent 15 years in the corporate world, I am ready for a change. Now in Bali, getting my tan back and pursuing my dream to open a vegan cafe.
Looking forward to connect with you all.

I really want to move toBali because compared to my island, Bali is everything I ever dreamt of.
Hi, and welcome.
Perhaps you might like to read this in order to get some basics sorted out. It's heading out of date a little as I no longer need to deal with immigration, but it will start you off.

Actually I’m not new to Indonesia... moved to Surabaya in 2012 from America. Two years later moved to Jakarta for 1 year followed with a move to Bandung for 3 years. July 2017 moved back to Surabaya. I consult for a furniture factory in Sidoarjo and live comfortably in Pakawon Indah.
Had some British friends that we enjoyed immensely but unfortunately they moved back to GB. Basically, social life here now is with the principles of the factory occasionally for dinner and social events. For fun we travel to Bali all over Bali Island) and to various other islands e.g. Labuan Bajo, Komodo, Pink beach, live-a-board boat island hopping, Lombok, Gili Trawangan, Menjangan Island, Sumatra, and Kalimantan.. to name a few. Favorite hobby right has been scuba diving; slowly moving up in certifications ;-).
Enjoy good restaurants foods and cooking great dinners at home..love good red wine and occasionally a Chardonnay or a good bourbon.
Anyway, in a microcosm, that’s me. Any Surabaya expats out there interested in meeting up for drinks, chill?
Cheers,
Kevin
Surabaya is an interesting place and one that sees regular friends find topics, but people never seem to hang around long enough to see replies so they always seem to fail.
Perhaps I could encourage you to check the forum from time to time if you don't get any immediate replies.
I have a question..I wrote a "job Offer' about needing a maid and the auto reply said it would be reviewed first for approval b before posting...are you the person who approves or disapproves posts like that? I've been looking to see whether it has been approved and posted online but see nothing. Can you kindly enlighten me on the process? Thank you
I'm in Bali, glad I found the Expat site looking for recommendations for housing and way of life here?
Thanks
Hopefully others can help you with Bali.
Thats ok, appreciate your reply.
would love to know more about your project .
lets talk

Thank you
I dislike drunks, prostitution, and hate drug dealers, three things there is way too much of on Bali for my tastes. I got absolutely sick of men shouting "Young lady" or even "Young girl" and being offered weed and stronger drugs on the street.
The drunks were a lesser concern, but the rip off merchants are a pain in the bottom.
It's the only place in Indonesia I was happy to leave.
