Hi guys. A lot of people have already commented that the date of independence is 1945 not 1949. I chose 1949 because that's when the Dutch were finally gone. But I probably should have said 1945 because that's when independence was declared, and it's better to use the date chosen by Indonesians themselves. Thanks!
Louis Timotius I don't think that's even an opinion, it's a fact and he read the fact wrong I guss
He read the fact correctly. The dutch actually admited Indonesian's independence in december 1949. While after the japan colonization and declaring lose in world war II, Indonesian immidiately declaring independence themselves in 1945 and struggling from the colonization of the dutch, england, etc from 1945 to 1949.
Most of historical events concerning Indonesian were retroactively constructed anyway.
It was formed as a federation but later unionized with blood and deceit.
true, but Egypt has accepted Indonesia's sovereignty in 1945. tht's why Indonesia officially Independence in 1945 cause tht time Indonesia fulfill provision as the nation either de facto or de jure. thanks for the video :)
indonesia declared independence in 1945, after japan lose war. dutch (with western country support) that has gone from indonesia coused be outcased by japan for 3,5year come again to force claim indonesia.
And dutch not officially admit indonesian independence until 2005. So please, any westman in the world, dont trust your west data about indonesia. come to indonesia if you want to know about indonesia, many lie in indonesia data that west country and media give to the world.
I’m Puerto Rican. Been to Indonesia twice. It has become my favorite country!

@@FunnyJoshVideoz if u want pure and authentic Indonesia, yeah, don't go to bali
Alhamdulillah glad to hear it concucure and im a Indonesia people myself
I was traveling throughout Indonesia and made it to all provinces in Indonesia. What amazed me the most about the country is the differences. It was so diverse that every time you cross the border between provinces, you’re entering to a whole different world. It was very jaw-dropping just to imagine that you can find conservative Islamic Aceh, to the party island of Bali, and tribal communities of Papua, all of them in a single country. That was just wow for me.
How much you enjoy our country and yes im a indonesia im in the island of sulawesi
Indonesia was not, is not and will never be Islamic country. World map is inaccurate since Mercator projection 1569. In reality Indonesia is huge as Russia including our ocean and even much richer. Even much bigger before West and Middle East came took our former Australia, Singapore, Malaysia+Brunei, South Thailand, The Philippines, Vietnam even Madagascar Africa. Actually countries in Europe are just regencies and provinces in Indonesia.
I just finished a train journey across Java. It was spectacular, and the people were fantastic. I really fell in love with Indonesia.

I once lived in Toronto for 9 years or so. A wonderful country, I enjoyed my years there, quite fulfilling, educative, and happy life I had there.
i dont understand how people can dislike any of his videos hes doing soo much to educate .
its because their expectation about what their country's explanation here is not the same with the reality in this video
+mkhridwan no.. there always be dislikes almost in eveeerrryyyy videos with many viewers, no matter is it a good video or bad video. i think its the bot who dislike every video.. maybe...

its okey, that's how youtube work. lol

Hi Paul, an Indonesian by birth place, raised, and nationality here.. I'm highly appreciate your video about my country.. It was quite balance in terms of geography, history, culturally speaking.. Yeah, it's kind of odd to see that the Dutch has colonised Indonesia for 3+centuries, yet their trace are almost invisible in Indonesian culture.. Maybe it's due to many of rural Indonesians still hold some grudge toward the Dutch, because they exploited their area but made no development there..
But anyway, I hope other people find your video as informative and educative as I had.. :)
While on vacation in Jakarta it took us 6 hours from the airport to the hotel (9km)... The traffic is chaotic but Jakarta is a beautiful city.
Wow! You have to wonder how many people miss their flights. Luckily it never happened to me.
I have a client here in Japan who's the CEO of a fairly big trading company, and he often travels around Asia on business. He was in Jakarta once and had to get to the airport, but there was a terrible traffic jam. So he offered the taxi driver an extra $50 to do whatever it would take to get him to the airport on time. So the taxi driver drove on the wrong side of the road, into the oncoming traffic! That side of the road was much less busy).
Then the taxi got pulled over by the police. So my client told the police that he would give each of them $50 too. So, the police turned on their sirens and escorted the taxi to the airport --- through oncoming traffic. Hahaha.
The government is still building MRT for reducing the traffic jam.
I hope it can finish soon..

I'm Dutch, you said that there is not very much Dutch influence in Indonesia. but there is A LOT of Indonesian influence right here, there are a lot of Indonesian restaurants and monuments referring to Indonesia. around 2,5% of the Netherlands is Indonesian, but at least 10% has an Indonesian heritage (like me)
Is there any Indian influence in the Netherlands? The Dutch East India company was originally based in India right?
I like living in the Netherlands but it is very cold because I can't survive in the cold since I'm used to stay at warm places
+Permafrost - no.. that time Colonial thought we are India...east Indian company...based in Netherland to explore Indonesia resource... to colinize I mean...
thanx God they are disappear...
And those blessed Hagelslag (aka muisjes, or meises in Bahasa) that really popular both in Indonesia and Netherland..
gosh, i want to spread the love of Muisjes 😍😍😍
back in the day, there are pretty much confusion about India. Because european used to named India after every land they discover. Remember Columbus, he thought he landed in India but he's not that's why he named the native there Indian. Same thing happened with Dutch, they thought Indonesia was India, then after that they discover there are two India (the one is Carribean that Columbus discovered, and the second is Indonesia), so to solve this confusion they named Indonesia as east India, and Carribean as west Indies. cmiiw
Indonesia declared independence in 1945 but was only recognized by the Dutch in 1949 after a series of fights. However some countries had recognized Indonesia earlier than 1949 (e.g. Egypt, or so what my teacher taught me). That's the only thing that irked me but otherwise, it's a great and in all honesty a correct explanation towards my country. Thank you! :)
13 year old Indonesian here! You pretty much got all of the history correct! For the flag, the red means "courage" and the white means "purity". Great job!
Indonesian independence is declared in 17 august 1945, year 1949 is the year dutch ended their re-colonializing campaign effort and acknowledge the soverignity of Indonesia. Telling the indonesian independence in 1949, is like telling americans that their independence is in 1783, forgetting their long and bloody struggle to defend and preserve their independence since 1776. It is only acknowledgement from the imperialist point of view.
Well said, they are just too arrogant to said that 👍👍
@Illidan Stormrage secara teknis kedua tahun bisa dianggap betul. 1945 deklarasinya, 1949 pengakuan internasional dari kebanyakan negaranya. Mesir pun baru mengakui tahun 46, jadi kalo dibilang merdeka tahun 1945 masih ada bintangnya. Kedaulatan satu negara harus diakui oleh negara lain, kalo nggak ada yg mengakui ya nggak sah.

Terima kasih banyak, Paul! As an Indonesian, I really appreciate this video.
Indeed, Indonesia is most famous of its beautiful scenery. And yes, Jakarta is the city with the worst traffic in the world.
Anyway, Indonesians declared independence in 17 August 1945 and the date has been celebrated ever since. After that, there was a time of national revolution because the Dutch wanted to keep their control of Indonesia. The revolution ended in 1949 with our independence secured. The UN apparently decided to formally recognize our Independence date as 27 December 1949.
Rich country, with so much language. I feel the goverment efort to united all of them
Yes.. we are different but only one flag white (putih) and red (merah) which has united us.
+Adi Prasetiyo L the most importance is they are separated by the sea, mountains, forest, island. how can?
I know 2 place that separated just by the wall and they decided to make their own country
I think it because same national language "bahasa" its help us alot know each other and reduced conflict, even timorese still use bahasa
i mean before they know Bahasa how can they united?
Drimz
we united because colonialization :)
As I expected, a lot of Indonesians commented on the 1949 independence date... I'm Indonesian and let me help clear the situation
Paul, technically you were correct to say that Indonesia became independent in 1949. However, for decades ever since then students at schools were educated to call 17th August 1945 as Indonesia's independence day, being the day when Sukarno made the declaration of independence. To have full independence, a country must have de facto independence and de jure independence where that de facto independence is recognised by law. Indonesia acquired de facto independence on 17th August 1945 when Sukarno made the declaration and acquired de jure independence on 27th December 1949 when Queen Juliana of Netherlands recognised sovereignty of Indonesia.
It is quite a sensitive subject among Indonesians who were mostly indoctrinated to hate the Netherlands as the "colonialist". Even the Netherlands today have acknowledged 1945 as the independence year to normalise and strengthen the relations between the two countries but unfortunately public sentiments have been largely unchanged. Fact of the matter is, like it or not, Indonesia achieved full independence by 1949 when a de facto declaration had been made and the former colonist acknowledged the independence, as well as recognition by the United Nations. Some Indonesians might say "go to hell with the Dutch and the UN" but these are simply enraged patriotism that resulted from decades of education. I'm Indonesian and from an objective point of view, I would say that Indonesia's independence was fully achieved in 1949.
With that in mind, when you mentioned the independence, it might be best to list both years and pointing out the controversy behind it to avoid offending some Indonesians. Apart from that, I'd say this is a good piece. Great stuff!!
lu Leto rude and reported
Irfan, then you are thinking the way THEY are thinking. NO, that's not it. Independence is where and when we think we are independent. I don't personally give any s**t about others think or write.
For me and most of Indonesian, August 17th 1945 is the independence day. whether there is another such 1949 is just there are some people outside indonesia in the world state it and not represents the people who has it (The Independence).
If you, Irfan, say that you are born at 17 August 1945 but other people recognized your date of birth at 27th December 1949. How would you say and think?
I hope the last question I mention, will make you change your mind about the TRUE INDONESIA INDEPENDENCE DAY.
Well said, sad that a lot of people can't seem to understand your point
The last paragraph should've explained everything
Well, correct me if i am wrong. But base on my understanding, independence is an independence. Either it's full independence (de facto and the jure) or not full independence (Just de facto).
I am totally aware of how a possibility of some politicians and 'people' with interest who trying to change the history to the way they wanted it but I do believe that our independency were declared on 17 of August, 1945 and that is our independence date. Those date on 1949 is the date when The Netherlands acknowledged our independency not our Independence date and that doesn't really matter for us, as Indonesian.
I love when all people are interested on our country, not because of Bali. But maybe because of the languages, or the arts, and the history. I appreciate all people interest feeling for my country
Thankyou for your education...
Peace from Indonesia.
I miss u indonesia
Indonesia independence in 17 August 1945 not 1949.
+Raihan Ariq Muslim de facto 17 August 1945, but de jure 1949 following the recognition by the Dutch
+Mohamad Utama Lol, even me as the indonesian don't really know that indonesia was officially recongnised in 27 December 1949, because it's not written in textbook hahaha, you know, PKN subject.
Faisal D No dude, it is in History instead of Civic (PKN), are u sure? Where did you go to school? It is taught since elementary school! Do you know Round Table Conference (KMB), the recognition came after it
i don't know haha, nowadays seems like that so called "nationalism" subject never write 27 december 1949 as the UN version of indonesian independence. Btw history subject doesn't exist in my school's programmes even in elementary, instead it's a mixture of sociology-economics-geography-history in just one subject haha
Faisal D How old are you?
The most useful overview of Indonesia I have found on You Tube.
Thanks! I'm glad to hear that.
I'm proud to be Indonesian people 😍 thank you for the beautiful video

Too bad I just found out about this channel. I'm from Indonesia, and I'm quite impressed about the information you gave and your pronunciation. Mostly, people will pronounce the c in Puncak Jaya as /k/, not /tʃ/, however you just pronounce it correctly 👍
You’re here now, and that’s the important thing!

Hey Paul, I just wanted to say really nice video and I would love to see more like this :D
Thanks Masa. What do you like about this one?
+GEOfocus I really liked the way that you covered all of the aspects of the country and you could really tell a lot of study went into this, plus I enjoyed the way it was presented. A channel called Geography Now does a similar thing and I would recommend checking him out too.
MasaEmpire Thanks Masa, that`s good to know. I asked because on this video I tried to improve the production quality and wanted to see if it made a difference to viewers.
I`ve heard of Geography Now because I`ve seen it in the related channels tab, and in the suggested videos. But I avoid watching similar channels because I don`t want to worry about whether someone else has already done the same topic, or worry about whether I`m copying them without knowing, etc. I`d rather not know what they`re doing. But it sounds cool.
By the way, do you know my other channel LangFocus?
You totally capture what geography is all about in your videos. Keep up the good work!
+Ljupka Jovanovska Thank you! I`m happy to hear that. Sorry I haven`t uploaded a new video recently. I`ve been so busy with the LangFocus channel.
Anyone (except Indonesians) who has seen this video and wants to visit Bengkulu, the home of two biggest flowers (Female Rafflesia and Male Kibut), you guys can stay freely at my home, in Bengkulu, Indonesia.
Thank you for your video, Paul! Greetings from Indonesia! :)
Great stuff!

Keep up the good work!
+curt Thanks! It's good to see that people watch both! :)
Great! Looking forward to you explaining the Indonesian language on your Langfocus channel ;)
thanks for this video, love it
You videos are great man, keep up the good work!
+Heath Mitchell Thanks Heath! Did you come here from Langfocus? Or did you find this channel through search?
Through search. But your other channel is also very interesting
Heath Mitchell Thanks Heath! That`s good to know. This channel doesn`t have many videos yet so it doesn`t get too many views yet. But I`ll make more!
Video yang bagus sekali. Terima kasih, Paul!
You explained my country so well. Langfocus and GEOFocus are incredibly good and educative. Then I wish I have my turn to visit Canada someday.
To be honest I laughed hearing the song from the ending of this video, hahaha. Have a nice day!
Indonesia is my favourite country .

Great info paul
thank you so much for doing this video.
hi, great video in introducing Indonesia without any political agenda and pretty neutral. Therefore it is very recommended for educational purposes for kids. I'm an Indonesian yet due to my job, we keep moving around from country to country. My 6 yo son is confused with his identity and rarely know about Indonesia. Now, i find this channel that explains briefly about my country and helps my son's learning process and his presentation in class about his Motherland. Thank you, keep up the good works!
i love indonesian country so amazing
Really really awesome video.. You learn a lot about the nation ;)
I highly appreciate for your effort make video about my beloved country. Thank you. If you don't mind, I'm going to share this on Facebook :)
740 languages.. i'm proud!!
Yes!
If im not mistaken, the reason why in Indonesia we don't see much influence from the Dutch was because of the way that the Dutch was colonizing back then. They didn't go for the 3G(gold, glory, gospel) like all the other empire, but instead they go only for the trading profits. Hence, not much influence was impacted during colonial times.
Total area of Indonesia is about 5 million km². Land area is about 1.9 million km² and sea area is about 3.1 million km²
Great job!
Hi! I'm Indonesian. Thanks for featuring our country, even though there are some mistakes. I also live in Jakarta, and I laughed so hard to your description about the traffic and "to take your own private helicopter". Dang, I love that part! 😂😂😂
Great job Paul. I thought Indonesian was so small. I have no idea how big and populated it was. I heard that Indonesian was one of the easiest languages in the world. Do you think intonation would balance out how easy it is, making it harder. Thanks Paul.
+mykka alessandro de oliveira Thanks Mykka! Yeah, a lot of people think Indonesia is just a few small islands with a small population, like Tahiti or something. But it`s big and is densely populated, especially Java. I took a train ride across Java once and it was like a non-stop chain of villages the whole way.
Indonesian is quite simple in its textbook form. So you can learn to speak like that quite easily, and most people can speak like that with you. The more challenging part is the casual language which has a lot of abbreviations and dropped syllables, slang, etc. It`s the kind of thing that`s hard to learn without living there, but I managed quite well without knowing much of the casual language. It was just a bit hard with young native speakers in Jakarta. Most other people spoke it as a second language so they stuck to the textbook language a little more.
Wow, that was 10 years ago! I haven`t spoken it since then.
+mykka alessandro de oliveira +GEOgraphy FOCUS
As far as intonation, I haven't noticed it from my wife who speaks Bahasa Indonesia and Javanese as native languages but perhaps Paul can clarify.
Absolutely Paul, words are shortened literally ALL the time. You'll have words that are 3-4 letters long and they STILL have a shorter form.
Indonesia is absolutely underrated. The train ride through Java as well as experiencing the urban centres of Indonesia are quite the sight. Highly encourage anyone who loves nature or is into anthropology to check out Indonesia, there's more going on than meets the eye.
+GEOgraphy Focus Don't forget the Affix. I see many foreigners still suffering on that.
+GEOgraphy Focus Don't forget the Affix. I see many foreigners still suffering on that.
Nile Devile in a country like Indonesia, a lingua franca is pretty much a necessity. I think this informal and formal language divide is relatively common as well, it's a trend I've been noticing when learning about different languages.

Great video, Sir! Thanks for explaining my country.
I like how you explain it. I like when you explain about the capital of Jakarta. I agree with you and I personally dislike my country capital haha.
And for the year of independence, the correct one is on 1945. However, personally, it's okay for me if you get wrong on mentioning the year of independence of Indonesia since 1949 independence was where de jure and de facto recognition took place.
Yeah, sadly the Dutch didn't want to spread their cultures on us. I personally wanted them to spread their cultures on us and we finally could speak Dutch.
You mismatched between the meaning of those Dutch terms with the associated years when Indonesia gained independence. De jure or "by law" we gained independence in 1945, but de facto or "in reality" we only had them Dutch to actually leave us for good in 1949.
I'm Dutch but 1/8 Indonesian. and it would be really cool if you guys could speak Dutch and your indigenous languages. just like Suriname
+VuurwerkFanaten what? You mean Javanese? I can but it's not understandable here so it's pointless. Yeah, I agree with you, I wish we could speak Dutch.
+Dionisius Baryatdika we? many indonesian can speak dutch language, you know.. but not the majority..
+Dzulfiqar Bagas Tito ha? really? then why aren't there any statistic showing so?

thanks Paul!
+GEOgraphy Focus Great video, but i have to point out that we call the whole Borneo Island as Kalimantan (we never actually call it Borneo). And also, we call the New Guinea Island simply as Papua (we never really refers it as New Guinea).
Yes, I think the way they're referred to in English is different from the way they're referred to in Bahasa Indonesia and other Indonesian languages.
+GEOgraphy Focus Borneo & new Guinea actually named by dutch colonial, we Indonesian ignore to still use that name (Borneo) because we are already free from the colonial and proud to use name that given by Indonesian.
Not true. I am a native English speaker who lives in Jakarta.
We only ever refer to these places as Kalimantan or Papua.
Terms like 'Borneo' and 'New Guinea' are outdated, much like 'Peking' or 'Madras'. They have an imperialistic feel, even in English, so please drop the habit rather than defending it.
Misu Satriyo we don't have the right to name the whole island like Borneo because the island have multiple countries in it, so the island name should follow international name.
it different case with Sumatra, previously named Andalas island.
we have the right to change the name from Andalas to Sumatra because the whole island only have one country in it, Indonesia
@@saretgnasoh7351
Calling the whole island Borneo is ok with me, though it may have come from the pronunciation of the name 'Brunei' by the Europeans. It might also be from the trees Borneol found there, so, okay.
But to call the Indonesian part of the island other than 'Kalimantan' is a bit insulting to Indonesians. Please have some respects...
Hello there! Greetings from Indonesia, I want to request a video, about Mount Krakatoa (pls do a part two of this vid, and include the informations that i give you)
1. Krakatoa makes the moon blue at one point (bcs of the ashes, and yes BLUE!! 💙💙💙)
2. Krakatoa killed more than 36k people and destroyed 2/3 of the island (Rakata Island)
3. The explosion of Krakatoa is considered to be the LOUDEST sound in the modern history, with reports that the explosion could be heard 3000 miles away!
4. The eruption of Krakatoa mountain is one of the most violent volcanic events in history
5. The eruption was equivalent to 200 megatons of TNT - about 13000 times the nuclear yield of the Little Boy bomb (in Hiroshima) and 4 times the yield of the Tsar Bomba (THE MOST POWERFUL nuclear device EVER detonated)
(Based on wiki, and these are only some of the facts about Krakatoa)
Edit = i misspelled two 😂😂

As I observe , Kalimantan is a good place to build its capital even though there are not a lot of people it is at the heart of Indonesia , there are not that many volcanoes nearby and earthquakes there are lowest in Indonesia but Java is a nice place , it's very fertile and good trades come from there so geographically Kalimantan is better but economically the best place is Java

Indonesia destroys the rain forests, is an overpopulated country like India & on top of that has Sharia law. Nasty combination. Leave those islands to better countries.
@@jamescook2412 yeah sharia law, you know everything about my country wow you must be very smart.
As natives to the island, my people have the right to call the island the name that has always been in use by our ancestors, Kalimantan. If Malaysia and Brunei want to refer to the island by the name given by their former colonial masters, Borneo, it’s up to them. But don’t tell use what to do with our ancestral name for the island.
