The command is mklocale(1).

id_ID locale(s) are not included in FreeBSD. If you have correct LC_*
files, you should talk to FreeBSD team member responsible for l10n,
(which is, according to

  http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/contributors/staff-who.html

Andrey) about official inclusion. I also suggest you to use
freebsd-i18n at freebsd.org mailing list for that purpose.

Beside this, please don't forget that, if you just need Indonesian
translations of userland applications, you can just install appropriate
ports, for example:

  misc/kde3-i18n-id    Indonesian messages and documentation for KDE3
  textproc/id-aspell   Aspell Indonesian dictionary

Finally, you might find this page useful:

Best regards.
