Number format for Indonesia
Mobiles in Indonesia carry 9 digits after +62. Locally they are written with a leading 0, like 0812-345-678; with Indonesia as the default country the console reads that as +62 812 345 678, so local and international forms end up as the same recipient.
+62 812 345 678
Alphabet and message length
Indonesian and Malay text fits the GSM-7 alphabet, so a single SMS to Indonesia carries 160 characters and each part of a longer one carries 153. One emoji or curly quote turns the whole text into Unicode at 70 characters per segment; the composer names that character and can swap quotes and dashes for plain ones.
Local time in Indonesia
Indonesia spans 3 offsets in January, from UTC+7 to UTC+9, so a national list reads the same text at different local hours. A 09:00 start in Jakarta is 02:00 UTC; the console shows both times when you schedule.
