      @@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.

      We have female president, which is not allowed in a muslim country. All the first lady from the first to the 7th doesnt wear hijab.
      We name everything under Sanskrit(which is used in Hindus bible). Airline, hospital, university, national emblems,Corporate name,streets, you name them all.

      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)

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.

      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.

    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 3 ปีที่แล้ว +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.

    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

    As a West Java citizen, I was there several times in the 90s when I worked for a consulting service in the Indonesia's 27th province. There were only 20% village roads before we started the program then it became 100% disclosured villages in 1999 It was budgeted by government under OECF loan for rural infrastructures development program (indeed we paid it even after independence). Instead, other teams were also working on human development effords in form of student & college programs, likewise in school infrastructure, public functions, communications, electricity and various other programs that have not been provided by the Portuguese for hundreds of years. We kept on many affordable affirmative approaches to its accomplishment along with many security issues (atrocities by both sides). So it is not entirely true that Indonesia left damages as propagandized upon its retreaval. But now, I am happy to see how a lot young generation of East Timor is doing such endeavours to advance their country. God bless them.

    By the way I always try to understand the each side.

      That"s because of the fact that Oecussi was the place where Portuguese arrived in Timor island for the first time. Thus, they did not give the land to the dutch. My father is for Oecusse btw.

    Hey Barby, when you mentioned José Ramos Horta, in portuguese it's pronounced "Giosé Hamos". You pronounced it the way it would sound like in spanish. And yes, I am aware this is an old video.
    Sallutations from Brasil! Love your videos.
