Indonesia will not most likely be a global superpower, but probably will be an energy superpower in 2050.

Alright, let me try.

I think that a potential superpower will be one that can also tap into the emerging African market, which I acknowledge China has done and India does poorly.

The rapidly growing and healing African market is something I feel is unnoticed- though none of these nations can become superpowers, they are worthy of investment.

We have many energy resources. Many. Not lots, but many.

Although, maybe not an energy superpower in the world, but most likely in Southeast Asia...
