The AICC was established in 1949 before Indonesia received its full sovereignty from the Netherlands.

A private membership organization headquartered in New York, AICC was the first US organization to openly lobby for Indonesia’s independence. Its members include major investors who have contributed greatly to Indonesia’s economic development as well as small companies who are the lifeline in the US for Indonesia’s exports.  AICC members are primarily US companies but also include companies based in Indonesia as well as other countries.
