Why Indonesian language seems so different from other Asian Languages?

First of all, Indonesian uses Latin alphabet unlike many languages in Asia that use characters of their own (Chinese and Arabic for instance). In addition, a lot of Indonesian words come from other language making it more similar to a European language rather than an Asian language. Also I’ve heard that Indonesian is easier to learn rather than other Asian languages. Finally, Indonesian has fairly easy grammar. Why it is not similar to most Asian language?
