D’ville Great Decisions’ ‘Understanding Indonesia’ set for Feb. 2

Scot Alan Marciel

Ambassador Scot Marciel will give a talk entitled “Understanding Indonesia,” as the second in the 2024 Deltaville Great Decisions lecture series. The talk is set for 10 a.m.-noon Friday, Feb. 2, at the Deltaville Community Association building at 17147 General Puller Highway (Route 33) in Deltaville.

Despite its large size, Indonesia remains virtually invisible to most Americans. But as one of the world’s largest democracies, the world’s largest Muslim-majority nation, and as an economic driver, why does it fly below the radar? What are current issues in U.S.-Indonesian relations, and what role can the country play in Asia?

Scot Alan Marciel (born 1958) is an American diplomat and served as principal deputy assistant secretary in the Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs until February 2016.

Ambassador Marciel presented on Myanmar in 2023 via Zoom and will again present via Zoom from Stanford University.
