Bagus banget! :) I agree with Jellis, similar to Thyreus nitidulus.. but there're a lot of species in this genus, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyreus
Jellis
pretty close to a Neon cuckoo bee (Thyreus nitidulus) but not sure if the marks and lack of blue on wings match. Though listed as being in Australia, they have been spotted in Indonesia.
