      @@nurphurecarnium ada kesalahan di statement lu. Indonesia ga pernah ngejajah timur leste, timur leste itu punya 3 golongan setelah portugis melepas timur leste.
      1. Ingin jadi bagian Portugis
      2. Komunis (FRETILIN)
      3. Ingin jadi bagian Indonesia
      Indonesia disini berperan sebagai pihak pembantu seperti amerika di korea selatan, lebih tepatnya karena terjadi perang saudara di timur leste yang ngebuat 60k jiwa pendukung yang ingin masuk indonesia mati di tangan komunist. Saat itu indonesia ngebuat semua pendukung komunis di timur leste musnah hingga sekitar 80k mati akibat bom dan kelaparan. Barulah pihak timur leste bergabung dengan indonesia. Singkat cerita timur leste lepas dari Indonesia masuk ke cengkraman Aus malah tetep nyalahin Indonesia padhal Aus yang ngambil SDA mereka dan menghasut mereka untuk lepas dari Indo.

    Regarding the Jesus statue thing from Indonesia... you might learn later in the Indonesian episode that the country may be predominantly Muslim, but there are sizable Christian, Hindu and assorted pagan religions throughout the archipelago. And generally, Indonesia tends to try to keep the peace with them, especially with Bali, which is mostly Hindu, and a major source of tourist money. It's an incredibly diverse region of the world, and you can imagine, keeping it all together is a monumental task.

      No. The thi g that Barbs want to point out is "Why Suharto (as a muslim) giving Christ statue to East Timor?"
      For normal Sunni Muslim, making/giving/having/buying/selling statue is forbidden in Islam. Because most of Muslim Indonesian aren't pious Muslim, so he said "...that's okay in Indonesia." (Although it's forbidden in Islam)

      Hello my friend. I ain't a Portuguese nor I speak Portuguese but I would suggest the following. Portuguese speaking community hosted numerous occasions of international sports events every three to four years. Among all sports, ⚽ football/soccer is popular and also globally popular. Also the most influential Portuguese speaking nations are Brazil, Portugal, Angola, Mozambique and few other nations who also play lots of football. In Brazil, it is a global leader.
      Consequently, I recommend that promoting and coaching more football to binding the Portuguese speaking community.
      For example, Timor-Leste developed football as popular as it is in Brazil?
      On the individual players, brilliant football players from Timor Leste could play internationally and earn hir income and popularity for the nation. Please refer to the Argentine Diego Maradona as a reference.

      Caribbean islands?? People in the Americas know them relatively well. Also some are word wide figures such as the Bahamas, Jamaica, Cuba, Dominican Republic. I live in a less known one, Trinidad and Tobago, but still we're known, because of our Carnival, Nicki minaj, Cricket records, and being the richest Caribbean country (sometimes being beat by the bahamas or smn) Theres also some lesser known ones but you get what I mean. I think Oceania Islands really take the cake when it comes to being unknown. and as you say, timor leste.

    The fact that the surrounding Island are predominantly Christian and you said that it's predominantly muslim is funny because Flores is the only Catholic native kingdom in Asia back in the day. Also the Portuguese were relocated from Flores to East-Timor. Sumba is a heavily Christian island (I'm from Sumba so I do know that) and the other Islands (alor, solor, etc.) to the east are mostly Christians so it's not weird about having a lot of pork cuisine. The fact that most pigs were farmed in Sumbawa (a Muslim majority Island) and shipped to the Flores, Sumba, Timor, etc. shows that Indonesia, despite a muslim-majority country, is not an extremist muslim one. Also you failed to mention Macau and Goa as the Portuguese family :(

They might tell you a different story. Not as extreme as the middle east but it is still far away from 100% secular. The government and the cabinet are packed with Javanese muslims. Though Javanese is majority, it is only 20% of the whole population. Very unhealthy democracy.

    • @junirenjana
      @junirenjana Před 3 lety +29

      @@bnbcraft6666 You're correct in saying that the govt moved people from Muslim-majority areas to Papua, following the now-halted "transmigration", purportedly to distribute the population more equally between Indonesian islands. However, the provinces surrounding East Timor are *not* the target of transmigration. East Timor and Papua are separated by more than a thousand kilometres. The province of East Nusa Tenggara, which surrounded East Timor, was still 90% Christian in 2010. This is in contrast to the province of West Papua, where Muslims now form a significant minority there.
      The transmigration program, btw, did not move only Muslims but also non-Muslims, especially Christian Javanese and the majority-Hindu Balinese. In West Papua (the province, not the whole region), where half of the population are non-indigenous, only 38% are Muslims. This means that at least 10% of the population are both non-indigenous and non-Muslim.
      In any case, the conflicts that arose out of transmigration so far are more ethnic-based than religion-based, e.g. the Madurese-Dayak clashes in Borneo. Most Madurese are Muslims, but the similarly majority-Muslim Javanese and Malays were relatively untouched by the Dayaks.
      Also, conflicts due to transmigration have happened even when the target areas are majority Muslim. The province of Lampung, for example, is now majority Javanese, while the indigenous Lampung people (who are mainly Muslims as well) form no more than 15% of the province's population, due to heavy transmigration since the early 20th century (yes, this program is one of the legacies left by our colonizer, and continued by our corrupt politicians). This has resulted in some conflicts between the locals and transmigrants. Nowadays, the provincial government is required to safeguard the indigenous Lampung culture and language, but it took years and regime change before these policies were legally implemented.

      No, Singapore and vietnam reject themjoin ASEAN. East Timor will be burden for South Asia since they are poor country.
      And sadly polynesian not accepting them too.
      They stand by they own since no other country want ET join them.

      ***** not until but exactly in 1999 the Indonesian millitary bombed and burned down the Dili City because they feels Timorese were betray and cheating on them.
      Anyway those day 100% of Timor Infrastructure was build by Indonesian money. Meanwhile the other parts of Indonesian still very suffer yet even millions of Indonesia haven't electricity and roads. Thats why now we learnt from our experiences in the past and build some ex-disputed places like Aceh and Papua and other parts as well.

      uhhh indonesia never conquer timor leste,
      31 may 1976 the people representative council of timor made a petition to urge indonesian government legalised timor into indonesian territory, because the political situation when timor was still under portugal colonization plus the revolt from fretilin. it was a mess, and chaotic.
      and yeah indonesia took them into their nation, build timor with much their soldier life,money,and time. And when the timor people want to be severed tie, they let it go. there's no conquering in here.

    As an Indonesian speaking, here are some info i know about East Timor you can use in Geography more!
    1. East Timor gain their independence in 2002, via a referendum which held in 1999.
    2. The dry season you were talking about called El Nino and La Nina. Look them up on wikipedia
    3. In the video you said that, "the islands surrounding East Timor is predominantly muslim." The entire country is surrounded inside Eastern Nusa Tenggara Province which is a Catholic majority province.
    4. Austronesian not only lives in East Timor. Lots of them came from Eastern Indonesia. Eg: Maluku & Papua
