Indonesian People and Culture
I don't know what foreign people feel whe he/she lives in Indonesia. When i ask them, they most answered positive thing. Usually they felt good, but I don't know what the truth. I hope it's right.
You can call Indonesian people with many way, no need to know they name first. Just using below before him / his name :
Old Men = "Kakek" (like a grandpa)
Old Women = "Nenek" (like a grandma)
Mr = "Pak" or "Bapak"
Mrs. = "Bu" or "Ibu"
Young Men = "Mas"
Young Girl = "Mbak"
Little Boy / Girl = "Dek" or "Adik"
Culture
Culture is a habit that contains the value, an important and fundamental values that are passed from generation to generation. The heritage must be maintained so as not to fade or losing, so it can be studied and preserved by the next generation. Cultures can generally be divided into two kinds:
1. The Regional Culture is a common practice in certain areas or regions that are passed from generation to generation by the older generation to the next generation on the scope of the area. The local culture appears when the population of a region already have the mindset and the same social life so that it becomes a habit that distinguishes them from the population - the population to another. Local culture itself began to be seen growing in Indonesia at the time of the kingdom - the kingdom earlier.
2. Culture is a combination of local culture in the country. That meant that experienced local cultural assimilation and acculturation with other place in a State will continue to grow and develop into habits of that State. Examples Pancasila as the state, Indonesian and Anthem were initiated in the Youth Pledge October 12, 1928 which was attended by all the youth of various regions in Indonesia are determined to unite Indonesia by equating the mindset that Indonesian culture is different in each region, but remains in one unit Indonesia Raya in the motto "Unity in Diversity". There is a wise proverb says: "Love your culture like you love your mother" "A State is not going to be a great country if it does not know the identity of the culture of the country"
How does Indonesia people feel if they meet people from other country?
Absolutely, they are so happy. May be you won't see the pleasant in a big city of Indonesia. But, if you going to the small town or village, they usually watching you. They won't rob your money, no no no, they just so happy with your presence but they don't know how to speak english.
So, if you meet villagers seems like that, just say hi with a smile.
One thing, don't be angry with a question "where are you go?" (mau kemana mister?). I see, it's stupid question, but it's not a real question, just as mean as "How do you do", you don't need to answered that one. Wellcome to Indonesia
