Nearly 63 million
people in Indonesia will access Facebook via a mobile phone at least
once per month this year, according to a new eMarketer forecast,
which for the first time breaks out mobile phone Facebook users by
country. This number of users makes Indonesia home to the third-
largest mobile phone Facebook audience in the world, after the US
and India.

eMarketer estimates.
‘The percentage of Facebook users who access the platform via
mobile phones is higher in Indonesia than in any other country we
study; 92.4% of Facebook's audience there accesses the social
networking service through mobile phones at least once per month.
‘That compares with 79.1% of Facebook users in the US and 82.9% in
India.
eMarketer’s latest worldwide forecast for mobile phone social
network usage includes an increased estimate for usage in Indonesia
due to a higher-than-expected audience reported by Facebook in the
country.
In addition, virtually all mobile phone social network users in
Indonesia are mobile phone Facebook users. In all, just under a
quarter of the country’s population and 42.0% of mobile phone
users will use their devices to access Facebook at least monthly.
