Yes, this is a real question. As of posting this, Indonesia's 30yr APY is 7.44 (https://tradingeconomics.com/bonds), and Indonesia is a G20 member, as well as 'Investment Grade' and stable by all major credit rating agencies (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_credit_rating).
With my abject lack of comprehension, this seems like a no-brainer. What aren't I understanding? Is it like an inflation/PPP/real-wage difference with the Euro that people expect it to be worth less than a Western investment, or is this actually somehow a perfectly fine and safe investment I accidentally stumbled upon, that you might now be personally considering?
(If this ain't the right sub, please point me along. Forgot r/PersonalFinance is ass and asked there, won't make that mistake again.)
