The Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) is a non-profit organization based in Indonesia which has served as a think tank for the government on social, international, political and economical issues. the CSIS was founded on Sept 1, 1971 by Hadi Soesastro. It was founded to give advice, ideas and support to government and other stakeholders such as parliament, political parties, businesses and NGOs and to reach out to the regional and international communities and to develop awareness of Indonesian policies and its state of development, while giving feedback to the Indonesian government on domestic and international developments.〔 It is located close to the National Museum of Indonesia in ''Jl. Tanah Abang III/23-27'', Jakarta. ==History== CSIS was conceived in the 1960s as a strategic and security studies think-tank by brothers Jusuf Wanandi and Sofjan Wanandi. It is funded in part by the Chinese Indonesian business community and had the support of the Indonesian administration, including General Ali Moertopo and General Soedjono Hoemardani as well as two of the personal assistants of president Suharto. They turned down an offer to become a presidential think tank in order to stay independent and credible amongst international actors. In its early years, CSIS was not trusted from the Muslim community in Indonesia as it was seen to be a Catholic and Chinese-biased institution.〔 In 1988, President Suharto distanced CSIS from his administration as a yearly memo from Jusuf Wanandi which advised the preparation of a new generation of leadership for Indonesia after 20 years of his presidential rule was seen as a call for him to step down. He then advised his government to sever ties with CSIS. However, some politicians still maintained links with CSIS.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Centre for Strategic and International Studies」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
