Indonesia has many volcanoes, not just one. Indonesia has volcanoes because it is located along a subduction zone, where a slab of oceanic crust is sinking under another plated and into the mantle. Water that the plate takes with it alters the chemistry of the mantle rock, causing some of it to melt and rise through the crust.
