Questions

How many Indonesian-speaking doctors are there in Japan?
We list 42, in 14 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?
Tokyo, with 13 of the 42.
Is Indonesian unusual for doctors in Japan?
1% of the 8136 doctors we hold in Japan are recorded as working in Indonesian. Most of them come from Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, a register that records the languages each provider offers, so the figure reflects who that register covers, not only who speaks what.
