I don't know the answer to you your question.

Do you think it is because they are a Muslim State they act this way and lie?

Indonesia was largely Hindu from the first through seventh centuries. Buddhism arrived and was popular until the fourteenth century when the Majapahit Empire collapsed. Arab traders then began establishing Islam as the dominant religion.
