Abstract
New oil data is 21st century jargon. This movement has not been widely echoed in Indonesia. Although some initiatives should be recognized and appreciated, the status of the availability of reusable data in most countries, especially in Indonesia is still low. Most of the data published in Indonesian open access journals are in the form of pdf files that cannot be reused. We advise editors of Indonesian scientific journals to consider adopting FAIR data sharing by encouraging authors to share their data as additional files in a machine readables format, e.g. csv or xls. This effort will also contribute to the principles of transparency and sustainable development in Indonesia's research ecosystem.

Data is new oil [1]
This article explores the importance of reusable data, how to share it, and evaluates the availability of reusable data in scientific papers published in Indonesian and international earth science journals
Reviews in FAIR Data The focus on data sharing has shifted from data tables provided in a scientific article to FAIR data tables
Summary
Data is new oil [1]. Data may not be a significant component of published papers [2,3,4]. Most of the data is shared as non-reusable PDF files along with the descriptive text. The data itself cannot be directly reused for further study. Other researchers have to retype the data to research and develop it. This article explores the importance of reusable data, how to share it, and evaluates the availability of reusable data in scientific papers published in Indonesian and international earth science journals. 2. Reviews in FAIR Data The focus on data sharing has shifted from data tables provided in a scientific article to FAIR data tables. FAIR here is an acronym for Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable [5]
