Because of the flash it's hard to distinguish, but i think this could be Nephila maculata or Nephila pilipes (both found on Indonesia). Here's a photo of N. pilipes jarolensis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Giant_Wood_Spider_(Nephila_pilipes)_in_Kawal_WS,_AP_W2_IMG_1531.jpg And here is a photo of N. maculata: http://www.nicksspiders.com/nicksspiders/nephilamaculata.jpg For you to compare and decide wich one is the correct one
