Hi, welcome to Spider ID. 🙂 This is an Argiope orbweaver. There are a lot of options in Indonesia I’m not familiar with but nevertheless it looks just like and is probably most likely Argiope appensa.
So cool! Thanks for ID’ing it for me. I’ve never seen a spider with such a distinctive gold color before. It almost looks like a crown or some kind of ornate decoration
Yes, Argiope can be really striking!
