JOINT PROXY STATEMENT FOR THE
ANNUAL MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON APRIL 21 AND 22, 2005
----------
This Joint Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with a solicitation
of proxies by the Boards of Directors (each a "Board" and collectively, the
"Boards") of the Funds for use at the Annual Meetings of Shareholders at the
offices of Credit Suisse Asset Management, LLC ("CSAM"), 466 Lexington Avenue
(between 45th and 46th Streets), 16th Floor, New York, New York 10017 on April
21, 2005 (The Chile Fund, Inc. and The Latin America Equity Fund, Inc.) and 22,
2005 (The Indonesia Fund), and at any adjournments thereof (each a "Meeting" and
collectively, the "Meetings"). A Notice of Annual Meetings of Shareholders and a
proxy card (the "Proxy") accompany this Joint Proxy Statement.
Proxy solicitations will be made primarily by mail, but solicitations may
also be made by telephone, telegraph or personal interviews conducted by
officers or employees of the Funds, CSAM, the investment adviser to the Funds,
Bear Stearns Funds Management Inc., the administrator of the Funds (the
"Administrator"), or D.F. King & Co., Inc. ("D.F. King"), a proxy solicitation
firm that has been retained by each Fund and which will receive a fee not to
exceed $1,500 per Fund and will be reimbursed for its reasonable expenses. All
costs of solicitation, including (a) printing and mailing of this Joint Proxy
Statement and accompanying material, (b) the reimbursement of brokerage firms
and others for their expenses in forwarding solicitation material to the
beneficial owners of each Fund's shares, (c) payment of D.F. King for its
services in soliciting Proxies and (d) supplementary solicitations to submit
Proxies, will be borne one-third by each Fund. This Joint Proxy Statement is
expected to be mailed to shareholders on or about March 1, 2005.
CSAM has its principal executive office at 466 Lexington Avenue, 16th
Floor, New York, New York 10017. The Administrator has its principal executive
office at 383 Madison Ave., 23rd Floor, New York, New York 10179. Celfin Capital
Servicios Financieros S.A. ("Celfin"), located at Apoquindo 3721, Piso 19,
Santiago, Chile, serves as Chilean investment sub-adviser and Chilean
sub-administrator to The Chile Fund, Inc. ("CH") and The Latin America Equity
Fund, Inc. ("LAQ"). Credit Suisse Asset Management (Australia) Limited ("CSAM
Australia"), located at Level 32, Gateway Building, 1 Macquarie Place, Sydney,
NSW 2000, serves as investment sub-adviser to The Indonesia Fund, Inc. ("IF").
The Funds' Annual Reports, containing audited financial statements for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, accompany this Proxy Statement. They are
not to be regarded as proxy-soliciting material.
EACH FUND WILL FURNISH, WITHOUT CHARGE, A COPY OF ITS MOST RECENT ANNUAL
REPORT AND ANY MORE RECENT SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT TO A SHAREHOLDER UPON REQUEST. ANY
SUCH REQUEST SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO THAT FUND BY CALLING 1-800-293-1232, BY
WRITING TO THE SECRETARY OF THE RELEVANT FUND C/O CREDIT SUISSE ASSET
MANAGEMENT, LLC AT
3
<Page>
466 LEXINGTON AVENUE, 16TH FLOOR, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10017, OR AT THE FUNDS'
WEBSITE AT www.csam.com/us. THESE REQUESTS WILL BE HONORED WITHIN THREE BUSINESS
DAYS OF RECEIPT.
If an enclosed Proxy is properly executed and returned in time to be voted
at the Meeting to which it relates, the shares represented thereby will be voted
in accordance with the instructions marked on the Proxy. If no instructions are
marked on the Proxy, the Proxy will be voted "FOR" the election of each Fund's
nominee(s) for director, and, in accordance with the judgment of the persons
named in the Proxy on any matters that may properly come before the Meetings and
that are deemed appropriate. Any shareholder giving a Proxy has the power to
revoke it by mail (addressed to the Secretary of the relevant Fund, c/o Credit
Suisse Asset Management, LLC, 466 Lexington Avenue, 16th Floor, New York, New
York 10017) or in person at the Meeting by executing a superseding Proxy or by
submitting a notice of revocation.
A quorum of shareholders is constituted by the presence in person or by
proxy of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of a Fund entitled
to vote at a Meeting. In the event that a quorum is not present at a Meeting,
the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy will have
the power to adjourn such Meeting, without notice other than an announcement at
such Meeting, until the requisite number of shares entitled to vote at such
Meeting is present. In the event that a quorum is present at a Meeting but
sufficient votes to approve any of the proposals are not received, the persons
named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of that Meeting to permit
further solicitation of Proxies. Any such adjournment will require the
affirmative vote of a majority of a Fund's shares represented at the Meeting in
person or by proxy, and the persons named as proxies will vote those Proxies
that they are entitled to vote "FOR" any proposal in favor of such adjournment
and will vote those proxies required to be voted "AGAINST" any proposal against
any such adjournment. Absent the establishment of a subsequent record date and
the giving of notice to the holders of record thereon, the adjourned Meeting
must take place not more than 120 days after the record date. At such adjourned
Meeting, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the
original Meeting. If a quorum is present, a shareholder vote may be taken on one
or more of the proposals properly brought before the meeting prior to any
adjournment if sufficient votes have been received and it is otherwise
appropriate.
For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting
business at a Meeting, abstentions and broker "non-votes" (that is, proxies from
brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions
from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote shares on a
particular matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have
discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present but which have
not been voted. Accordingly, shareholders are urged to forward their voting
instructions promptly.
The election of a Director at each Meeting will require that the successful
candidate(s) receive a plurality of the votes cast at a Meeting in person or by
proxy. Because abstentions and broker non-votes are not treated as shares voted,
any abstentions and broker non-votes would have no impact on the elections.
CSAM and its affiliates have advised the Funds that they intend to vote the
shares over which they have voting power at the Meetings, including shares that
are held directly or on behalf of employees, in the manner instructed by the
customers or employees for which such shares are held.
Each Fund has one class of shares of capital stock, par value $0.001 per
share (the "Shares"). Each Share of a Fund is entitled to one vote at that
Fund's Meeting, and fractional Shares are entitled to a proportionate share of
one vote. On the record date, February 25, 2005, the following number of Shares
of each Fund were issued and outstanding:
<Table>
CH 10,139,926 Shares
LAQ 6,322,240 Shares
IF 8,266,202 Shares
</Table>
4
<Page>
This Joint Proxy Statement is being used in order to reduce the
preparation, printing, handling and postage expenses that would result from the
use of a separate proxy statement for each Fund and, because shareholders may
own Shares of more than one Fund, to avoid burdening shareholders with more than
one proxy statement. To the extent information regarding common ownership is
available to the Funds, a shareholder who owns of record Shares in more than one
Fund will receive a package containing a Joint Proxy Statement and Proxies for
each Fund in which that shareholder owns Shares. If information relating to
common ownership is not available to the Funds, a shareholder who beneficially
owns Shares in more than one Fund may receive more than one package, each
containing a Joint Proxy Statement and a Proxy for a single Fund. It is
essential that shareholders complete, date, sign and return EACH enclosed Proxy.
In order that your Shares may be represented at the Meeting(s), you are
requested to:
--indicate your instructions on the Proxy;
--date and sign the Proxy;
--mail the Proxy promptly in the enclosed envelope; and
--allow sufficient time for the Proxy to be received and processed on or
before the commencement of the applicable Meeting(s) on the dates and at
the times indicated below.
<Table>
CH April 21, 2005 3:00 p.m.
LAQ April 21, 2005 3:30 p.m.

</Table>
PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
The only proposal to be submitted at the Meetings will be the election of
directors. If elected, each director will hold office for the term set forth
below and until his successor is elected and qualified.
Pursuant to each Fund's Articles of Incorporation, each Board is divided
into three classes, each class having a term of three years. Each year the term
of one class will expire. Each nominee is a current director whose term expires
on the date of the applicable Meeting and, if elected, will serve until the 2008
Annual Meeting of the Fund(s) on the Board(s) of which he sits and until his
successor is elected and qualified. Each nominee has indicated an intention to
continue to serve if elected and has consented to being named in this Joint
Proxy Statement. The nominees for election to the Boards of the Funds are as
follows:
<Table>
CH: James J. Cattano (three-year term)
Steven N. Rappaport (three-year term)
LAQ: James J. Cattano (three-year term)
IF: Lawrence J. Fox (three-year term)
Michael E. Kenneally (three-year term)
</Table>

Information about each nominee is set forth in more detail below.
The following tables set forth certain information regarding the nominees
for election to the Boards of the Funds, directors whose terms of office
continue beyond the Meetings, and the officers of the Funds. The current terms
of office of each Fund's officers will end at the applicable Board of Directors'
meeting next following the Meeting.

As of December 31, 2004, none of the non-interested nominees for election
to the Boards, the non-interested directors or their immediate family members
owned beneficially or of record any class of securities in CSAM or in a person
(other than a registered investment company) directly or indirectly controlling,
controlled by or under common control with CSAM.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, each director who was not a
director, officer, partner, co-partner or employee of CSAM, the Administrator or
any affiliate thereof, received an annual fee of $5,000 and $500 for each
meeting of the Boards attended by him and was reimbursed for expenses incurred
in connection with

<Page>
his attendance at the Funds' Board meetings. The total remuneration paid or
accrued by CH, IF and LAQ during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 to all
such unaffiliated directors was $36,500, $29,000 and $39,500, respectively.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, each Board convened five
times. Each director attended at least seventy-five percent of the aggregate
number of meetings of each Board and any committees on which he served during
the period for which he was a director.
Each Fund has an Audit Committee consisting of all the directors who are
not interested persons of that Fund and who are independent of that Fund (as
such term is defined by the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange
("NYSE") for CH and LAQ and by the listing standards of the American Stock
Exchange ("AMEX") for IF). Each of the Audit Committees of CH, IF and LAQ
convened twice during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. Each Fund's Audit
Committee advises the full Board with respect to accounting, auditing and
financial matters affecting that Fund.
Messrs. Arzac, Cattano and Rappaport constitute CH's Nominating Committee,
Messrs. Arzac, Fox and Francis constitute IF's Nominating Committee and Messrs.
Arzac, Cattano and Torino constitute LAQ's Nominating Committee, each of which
is composed of Directors who are not interested persons of the applicable Fund
and who are independent of that Fund (as such term is defined by the NYSE's
listing standards for CH and LAQ and by the AMEX's listing standards for IF). At
a meeting of CH's Nominating Committee held on February 18, 2005, the Nominating
Committee (with the nominees abstaining from voting) nominated Messrs. Cattano
and Rappaport each for a three-year term. At a meeting of IF's Nominating
Committee held on February 14, 2005, the Nominating Committee (with the nominees
abstaining from voting) nominated Messrs. Fox and Kenneally each for a
three-year term. At a meeting of LAQ's Nominating Committee held on February 18,
2005, the Nominating Committee (with the nominee abstaining from voting)
nominated Mr. Cattano for a three-year term. Each Fund's Nominating Committee
selects and nominates Non-Interested Directors. The Nominating Committees will
consider nominees recommended by shareholders should a vacancy arise.
Recommendations should be submitted in writing to the Nominating Committee in
care of the Secretary of the relevant Fund. Each Board has adopted a Nominating
Committee Charter (a copy of which was included as Appendix A to the Fund's
proxy statement dated March 1, 2004). In nominating candidates, each Committee
shall take into consideration such factors as it deems appropriate. These
factors may include judgment, skill, diversity, experience with investment
companies and other organizations of comparable, purpose, complexity, size and
subject to similar legal restrictions and oversight, the interplay of the
candidate's experience with the experience of other Board members, and the
extent to which the candidate would be a desirable addition to the Board and any
committees thereof.
None of the Funds has a Compensation Committee.
OTHER BOARD-RELATED MATTERS
Shareholders who wish to send communications to the Boards should send them
to the address of the relevant Fund and to the attention of that Board. All such
communications will be directed to the Board's attention.
The Funds do not have a formal policy regarding Board member attendance at
the Annual Meetings of Shareholders.

REPORTS OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEES
Pursuant to the Audit Committee Charter adopted by each Fund's Board (a
copy of which was included as Appendix B to the Fund's proxy statement dated
March 1, 2004), the Audit Committee is responsible for conferring with that
Fund's independent registered public accounting firm, reviewing annual financial
statements, approving the selection of that Fund's independent registered public
accounting firm and overseeing that Fund's internal controls. Each Fund's Audit
Committee charter also contains provisions relating to the pre-approval by the
Audit Committee of certain non-audit services to be provided by
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") to that Fund and to CSAM and certain of its
affiliates. Each Audit Committee advises a Fund's full Board with respect to
accounting, auditing and financial matters affecting the Fund. The independent
registered public accounting firm is responsible for planning and carrying out
audits in accordance with standards established by the Public Accounting
Oversight Board (United States).
Each Audit Committee has met with the applicable Fund's management to
discuss, among other things, that Fund's audited financial statements for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. Each Audit Committee has also met with the
Funds' independent registered public accounting firm, PwC, and discussed with it
certain matters required by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61,
COMMUNICATIONS WITH AUDIT COMMITTEES, as currently modified or supplemented,
including, but not limited to, the scope of that Fund's audit, that Fund's
financial statements and that Fund's accounting controls. Each Audit Committee
has received from PwC the letter required by the Securities and Exchange
Commission's ("SEC") independence rules describing any relationships between it
and the applicable Fund that may be thought to bear upon the independence of the
independent registered public accounting firm. Each Audit Committee has
discussed with PwC its independence and has considered whether the provision of
services by PwC to that Fund and to CSAM was compatible with maintaining PwC's
independence.
The members of the Audit Committees are not professionally engaged in the
practice of auditing or accounting and are not employed by a Fund for
accounting, financial management or internal control. Moreover, each Audit
Committee relies on and makes no independent verification of the facts presented
to it or representations made by management or the independent registered public
accounting firm. Accordingly, an Audit Committee's oversight does not provide an
independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate
accounting and financial reporting principles and policies, or internal controls
and procedures, designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and
applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committees'
considerations and discussions referred to above do not provide assurance that
the audit of a Fund's financial statements has been carried out in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards or that the financial statements are
presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Based upon these reviews and discussions, each Audit Committee recommended
to the Board that the applicable Fund's audited financial statements be included
in that Fund's 2004 Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2004 and be mailed to shareholders and filed with the SEC.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
At meetings held on November 30, 2004 for IF and December 2, 2004 for CH
and LAQ, each Fund's Audit Committee approved the selection of PwC for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 2005. PwC has been each Fund's independent
registered public accounting firm since that Fund commenced operations, and has
informed each Fund that it has no direct or material indirect financial interest
in that Fund. A representative of PwC will be available by telephone at the
Meetings and will have the opportunity to make a statement if the representative
so desires and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.
The information in the table below is provided for services rendered to
each Fund by PwC for its fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31,

Each Audit Committee is responsible for pre-approving (i) all audit and

any service provider to the Fund controlling, controlled by or under common
control with CSAM that provided ongoing services to the Fund ("Covered Services
Provider"), if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial
reporting of the Fund. Each Audit Committee may delegate its responsibility to
pre-approve any such audit and permissible non-audit services to the Chairperson
of the Committee, and the Chairperson shall report to the Committee, at its next
regularly scheduled meeting after the Chairperson's pre-approval of such
services, his or her decision(s). Each Audit Committee may also establish
detailed pre-approval policies and procedures for pre-approval of such services
in accordance with applicable laws, including the delegation of some or all of
the Committee's pre-approval responsibilities to other persons (other than CSAM
or a Fund's officers). Pre-approval by an Audit Committee of any permissible
non-audit services shall not be required so long as: (i) the aggregate amount of
all such permissible non-audit services provided to a Fund, CSAM and any Covered
Services Provider constitutes not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues
paid by the Fund to its independent registered public accounting firm during the
fiscal year in which the permissible non-audit services are provided; (ii) the
permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of
the engagement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly
brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee (or its
delegate(s)) prior to the completion of the audit.
The aggregate fees billed by PwC for non-audit services rendered to CH for
the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 were $22,482 and
$14,482, respectively. The aggregate fees billed by PwC for

billed by PwC for non-audit services rendered to LAQ for the fiscal years ended

These amounts include fees for non-audit services required to be pre-approved
by the Funds' Audit Committees.
PwC did not bill any amounts to the Funds for non-audit services rendered
to CSAM and Covered Service Providers of the Funds for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004.

Notice is hereby given that for a shareholder proposal to be considered for
inclusion in any Fund's proxy material relating to its 2006 annual meeting of
shareholders, the shareholder proposal must be received by that Fund no later
than November 1, 2005. The shareholder proposal, including any accompanying
supporting statement, may not exceed 500 words. A shareholder desiring to submit
a proposal must be a record or beneficial owner of Shares with a market value of
$2,000 and must have held such Shares for at least one year. Further, the
shareholder must continue to hold such Shares through the date on which the
meeting is held. Documentary support regarding the foregoing must be provided
along with the proposal. There are additional requirements regarding proposals
of shareholders, and a shareholder contemplating submission of a proposal is
referred to Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the 1934 Act. The timely submission of
a proposal does not guarantee its inclusion in a Fund's proxy materials.
Pursuant to the By-laws of each Fund, at any annual meeting of the
shareholders, only such business will be conducted as has been properly brought
before the annual meeting. To be properly brought before the annual meeting, the
business must be (i) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement
thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board, (ii) otherwise properly
brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board, or (iii)
otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a shareholder.
For business to be properly brought before the annual meeting by a
shareholder, the shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to
the Secretary of the Fund. To be timely, any such notice must be delivered to,
or mailed (certified mail being recommended) and received at, the relevant Fund
c/o Credit Suisse Asset Management, LLC, 466 Lexington Avenue, 16th Floor, New
York, New York 10017 not later than 45 days before the date in the then current
year corresponding to the date on which the Fund first mailed its notice and
proxy materials for the annual meeting held in the prior year; provided,
however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced or
delayed by more than 30 days from the first anniversary of the preceding year's
annual meeting, notice by such shareholder to be timely must be so received not
later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which
notice or public announcement of the date of such meeting was given or made. In
no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment of an annual meeting
commence a new time period for the giving of a shareholder's notice as described
above.
Any such notice by a shareholder to a Fund shall set forth as to each
matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting: (i) a brief
description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and
the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name
and address, as they appear on the Fund's books, of the shareholder proposing
such business, (iii) the class and number of shares of the capital stock of the
Fund which are beneficially owned by the shareholder, (iv) a representation that
the shareholder is a holder of record of shares of the Fund entitled to vote at
such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to
present such business, (v) whether the shareholder intends or is part of a group
which intends to solicit proxies from other shareholders in support of such
business and (vi) any material interest of the shareholder in such business.
A Fund may exercise discretionary voting authority with respect to any
shareholder proposals for the 2006 annual meeting of shareholders not included
in the proxy statement and form of proxy which are not submitted to the Fund
within the time-frame indicated above. Even if timely notice is received, a Fund
may exercise discretionary voting authority in certain other circumstances.
Discretionary voting authority is the ability to vote proxies that shareholders
have executed and returned to a Fund on matters not specifically reflected on
the form of proxy.
