Hi, This is the cooking setup used on a long trek in Indonesia: http://i.imgur.com/9WEAfZq.jpg Can someone suggest something more efficient, to cater for around six to eight people?

Thats a pretty sweet setup. For real cooking with a party size of six to eight, I would suggest the following cookware. A Frybake or maybe two if going all out, for frying your proteins, fats and vegetables, making sauces, and for baking breads. The frybake is a simple aluminum frying pan with a tight fitting lid. They are magic, you can cook anything in them. They aren't nonstick but anodized, so if something gets burnt or stuck on you can use river rocks to clean them. Then a 3 to 4 liter pot for your grains and drinks, simple. light aluminum is fine. Finally a smaller pot for sauces or drinks. Plastic plates to do chopping and prep work on. A big spoon and a bamboo spatula. Pot grabbers and a rag Basic and you can cook anything with it. You're in Indo so I would be expecting curries, rice, noodles, and flatbread right? Cooking over fires or stoves?
They use wood for fires. I think the cooking pots they use a fairly lightweight for their size, but that's because they are cheap household grade stuff, IYSWIM, rather than anything designed to be specifically lightweight. No flatbreads, but rice, instant noodles, curry, in that order.
