The cost of an Indonesian passport costs about 350 thousand... however if you use a "middle man" to speed up the process it shouldnt cost anymore than 600 thousand...
got my boyfriend a passport back in June, and it cost us 550 thousand, but we used a middleman..if we didnt we would have been at the immigration office all day... (we had already been there for 3 hours anyway)
and actually ive heard that its 50 million in the bank accounts...and the aussie visa office checks the bank account statements, if there's one huge deposit of money they usually decline the visa... (my friend works as a visa processor in the jakarta embassy) and she told me this.
Even having her on the "inside" cant make it easier for me to get a visa for my partner...they are very strict.
