Indonesia has the second-lowest number of doctors in Southeast Asia, with only 0.4 doctors per 1,000 people. This means that only 4 doctors serve a population of 10,000. This is significantly lower than Singapore, which has 2 doctors per 1,000 people.

Besides doctors, Indonesia also faces a shortage of other healthcare workers. The availability of nurses and midwives in Indonesia is also the worst among other countries. The nurse-to-population ratio is 2.1 per 1,000 people, meaning two nurses serve 1,000 people in Indonesia.
