What can you tell regarding recent events between Malaysia and Indonesia? I'm an indonesian, and lately, one can observed that things started to heat up between Malaysia and Indonesia. About two months ago, an official Indonesian martial arts referee, invited by Malaysian government, were beaten by 4 Malaysian authorities, without any clear reasons. The minister then apologize, days later, via phone call. (which some consider as not a proper apologize) Then days ago, one of Indonesian traditional song, "Rasa Sayange", were used by Malaysian government as part of their tourism program. The Malaysian minister stated that Indonesia won't be able to prove that the song were originally from Indonesia. In my knowledge, the song, which originated from Maluku region of East Indonesia, was considered traditional, that it's not patented or anything. I found out about these events from the news, not from any rumours. So what can you say about this? Does any of these news appear at your place? or do you have different perspective regarding these events?

Is the difference between British and Dutch policy the reason present-day Malaysia is better than Indonesia? According to present-day political situations in both Malaysia and Indonesia, it's not difficult at all to deduce which country is more peaceful and the citizens of which countries have happier lives. What I really wonder is that both nations have identical civilization development - They both are located in the maritime section of Southeast Asia which were first being indianised and then dominated by Islam brought into the regions by Indian trader. But I think the difference between the two in present day is because of the difference in policy during the colonial era. The British colonial policy gave the locals education for self-determination in return for the benefits taken from spice trade, showing intention to give Malaysia indepedence. The Dutch colonial policy, on the contrary, was meaner by not only not giving the locals education but also showing that The Dutch totally craved benefits from spice trade. Is this the reason why nowadays Malaysia is more peaceful than Indonesia?

WHAT DO U THINK ABOUT THIS STATEMENT? 4 ME ,IT ONLY PROVES THAT THE MUSLIMS ARE WORST PEOPLE THAN DEVILS THAT HUNGER 4 BLOODS!
Is Indonesia truly the RICHEST-MOST POWERFUL nation in ASIA? As American citizen, I of course proud that United States of America is the richest-most powerful nation on Earth! But how about Indonesia then? I read from Wiki that under the strong leadership of Sukarno, Indonesia became very strong and powerful… is that true? If it IS true, why then I hear next-to-nothing impressive from your country at all? The most corrupted nation on Earth, severe racism toward the Chinese-Indonesian people, separatism everywhere, low-quality maid from Indonesia, poor management toward natural disaster, unimpressive human resource, crazy religion (read: Islam) partisan, mafia-like social organization, I-hate-America-and-Israel syndrome, what else?!? Anyway, I have no bad intention toward Indonesia... I just wish that Indonesia were not that bad so that I can visit your beautiful and exotic Bali as soon as possible…. What do you all Indonesian think then? Any Indonesian people to respond here?
Is INDONESIA truly the RICHEST, most POWERFUL nation in the SOUTH EAST ASIA? I once thought that Indonesia is truly the RICHEST, most POWERFUL nation in the ASIA. Most people disagree and argue that China or Japan is more appropriate. Okay, but those two are located in the East Asia. How about in the region South East Asia? Is Indonesia truly the one there? PS: I read that President Soekarno of Indonesia once declared war toward Malaysia. Who won the war actually? Indonesia? Malaysia? Are they still at war right now? If Indonesia and Malaysia had TOTAL WAR right NOW in the 21st CENTURY, who would win?

I love indonesia? Heres why: babi guling sold there is delicious. women seldom wear head-scarfs. foreigners can enter into any place with no shirts. guys esp. liquor easily obtainable. grass is easily available too. hand-made handicrafts are cheap. cheap imitations easily available. this is the muslim country i like. truely paradise. well, in my point of view, of course. if u compare indonesia with malaysia, i think indonesia rocks. i wonder what slows indonesia's economical growth if compared with malaysia? indonesia has the potential. coz indonesia is somehow more open-minded. not so religion tied-up. thebear: oh yeah, i think i know whats slowing indonesia's growth. education. yup, no such thing as public/govt education. school is only for the rich/privilleged. well, thats what i heard from an indon. bloodweaver: tourist attractions are security tight. patrol guards are stationed there. i just got back from bali. boozjed: oh sorry, i should have use indos instead of indons? sorry. i dont much. boozjed: what do u mean i cant compare? im just really puzzled why indonesia has slower growth. ohhh yes ! i remembered ! indonesia has too many political fights in the last few years. sighz. i hope indonesia recovers quickly. and ROCK ON !!!!
Hmm... INDONESIA!!! Are you PROUD to be an Indonesian... or ASHAMED to be an Indonesian? Lots of Yahoo! Anwers users have told me that Indonesia is bad, but also beautiful. Indonesian government is corrupt, everybody wants bribery, warfreaks everywhere, lots of religious organisation-especially Moslem organisation- terrorize the civic society and act like bully, blackout almost everyday.... O.M.G!! Is Indonesia really that terrible? All I want is to go to watch and meet another Dancing-Girl in Bali (I'm a dancer also, and I really want to see great and beautiful dancers there ;), LOL!!), where they also told me that one of the most beautiful, friendly, and open-minded part of Indonesia. Tell me, is Indonesia really a beautiful bad country?
Indonesia vs Malaysia? Do you know the conflict between Indonesia and Malaysia lately? Malaysia "stole" one of Indonesia's culture song, titled "rasa sayange". Malaysia use it in a promotion of their culture and they admit it to be their own. They change some phrases from "rasa sayange" to "rasa sayanghe", related to their accent. Some source say that it's not the first time Malaysia stole Indonesia's culture. I, as an Indonesian, of course support my own country since I see it's in the right side. I just want to ask your general opinion about it, as the third side. For those on Malaysia's side, I'm very sorry with this post. I just want to know global people's arguments about it. FYI : Indonesians start to call Malaysia as "Malingsia". Where "maling" (in indonesian) means "thief".
Indonesia killing tourists and sponsoring terrorists? Indonesia courts carry the death penalty for drug traficing for tourists but rarely for their own citizens, also the goverment is more harsh on christian defendants. If Indonesia has such an outstanding interest in the hate towards their own tourist in which they welcome in, why dont countries take millitary action to protect their own citizens? like the australians with the bali 9. They may be guilty but their sentencing was based soley on nationality not degree of guilt and the courts want to ban foriegners from appealing their crimes. This may sound ridiculous but I think millitary action is needed by foriegn countries to indonesia. not only for foreign nationals but also for them harboring terrorist towards other countries. The Government wants to kill Australian citizens, they want to kill other foreigners, that whole "constitution" they have is just a wall to hide behind for their crimes to sponsor terror and killing foriegners. they probably setup half the tourists they catch. the motivation would be to ward of th drug trade from outside the country. they want to dearly execute foriegners. look at nes articles and court cases by them
Is INDONESIA a GOOD country or BAD country? What do you think about this unique NATION actually? I heard that Indonesia is celebrating her independence day now. Congratulation Indonesia!!

Tell me then, what else do you know about this Indonesia? I'm kinda interested in Indonesia -especially Bali- since my friend told me that girls in Bali are beautiful and hell great dancers! I'm also a dancer and if I got the opportunity, I want to visit Bali someday... LOL!!
Will INDONESIA ever rise again as the RICHEST-MOST POWERFUL nation in SOUTH EAST ASIA? Lots of people in Y! Answers told me that Indonesia was once a prosper nation before the 90’s crisis. Now they’re weak and suffering in the bottom, mostly from the corruption in the government! Is there any chance for Indonesia to rise again? Indonesia’s last chance? Is there is, what should Indonesian people and government do to advance their country ASAP? Rise of a Nation here…?
Why Indonesia is not an issue with Obama? For one thing most schools in Indonesia are Islamic due to the fact that it is an Islamic school. It is a very moderate Islamic country. Sharia law in only some communities that choose to enact it. but not all over for the majority. Two years as a young child is all he went to school there. There is no terrorist teachings. All students there wear uniforms too. again So what!! If you actually went to Indonesia to see for yourself you would know that. So many people hear about a "madrassa" school and then use the word like they know what they are talking about by assuming ALL Muslims go to those types of schools and are terrorists. Its laughable except people actually believe it. He's a christian. If he doesn't want to wear a flag lapel on his coat. So what? I wouldn't either as I don't have to wear a flag to prove I'm a patriot. a red an white flag does not go good with many colors. If you really are dead set on believing this then I say go to Indonesia and look for yourself. http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/Story?id=2822061&page=1
Why is Indonesia unable to control the yearly forest fires in Indonesia ? Forest fires occur yearly in parts of Indonesia, such as in Kalimantan and parts of Sumatra and Sulawesi. Why has the Indonesian government been unable to control the fires - although these fires are obvioulsly bad for the environment and the image of Indonesia ? First, i'm not from California, so.. i'm not interested in whatever that is happening there. and second, i'm only interested in Indonesia
