Why Tempo Works for Investors and High-Net-Worth Readers
Media Intelligence: Reaching Investors and High-Net-Worth Readers in Indonesia
Why Tempo Matters in Indonesia
Tempo first appeared in March 1971 as a weekly news magazine and resumed publication in 1998 after a period of government restriction. An English-language edition has been available since September 2000, and the title runs an Indonesian website and an English one.
What the Published Data Says About the Audience
- Circulation. 300,000 copies in 2010, an older figure shown for scale rather than as a current count.
- Frequency. Weekly magazine, with daily news on the website.
- Languages. Indonesian as the main language, with English content through en.tempo.co and an English magazine edition.
A Media Planner's View: Where to Place
Use Tempo for premium and corporate brands that want to reach informed Indonesian readers, including professionals, executives and investors. The weekly magazine suits campaign launches, brand statements and special editorial moments.
Add the website to extend reach between issues. Use tempo.co for Indonesian-language creative and en.tempo.co where an English-speaking, international audience is the target.

Our guidance. We decide the right split between Indonesian and English creative, and between print and website, as part of the plan for your audience.
