AFAIK, there is no translation of specifically Debian packages to
Indonesian. So, there are plenty translation works can be done on
Debian.

Agreed. Also, description of packages would be great as well.

:( I'm a bit disorganised at the moment. I've got some updated, but
still on my machine.

Well, not many Indonesian are using Debian yet. Further, people think
that Debian is hard to use, they prefer to use other distros. All in
all, not many Indonesian involved in translation project. If any, they
are more likely to stuck in a particular project or work in a company
(a distro).
The i18n mailing list for Indonesian is available at linux.or.id.
It's not Debian specific but easier to find others.
