A republic in Southeast Asia (9)

I believe the answer is:

indonesia

(Other definitions for indonesia that I've seen before include "State" , "An ionised country of South East Asia" , "somewhere in Asia" , "I said none (anag) - country" , "Muslim republic" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
