57 of the 60 sit on an official list; the rest rest on the provider saying so or on a directory listing, and each card says which.

Questions

How many English-speaking doctors are there in Indonesia?
We list 60, in 8 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source, not the number that exists.
Which city has the most?
Jakarta, with 29 of the 60.
Is English unusual for doctors in Indonesia?
90% of the 67 doctors we hold in Indonesia are recorded as working in English. A consular list records the language because the mission publishes it for its own citizens, so the figure reflects who publishes lists, not only who speaks what.
