Bro only watch western media, and try to make more issue, even people from java is look different than mollucan, or minahasan, or flores. There is no indonesian look.
Saying "West Papua people don't have indonesian looks" is like saying "Black american don't have american looks". In fact, there is no such thing as "indonesian look". Indonesia consist of hundreds of ethnicity each with different culture and colors. Javanese don't look like Dayak people, Sundanese don't look like Bataknese. Heck, we even have Chinese ethnic who looks really different than the rest but we still regard them as Indonesian. Defining a country based on race/ethnic is just pure racist.
he also said "Indonesia is a muslim country" which is also wrong. well, indonesian has the largest muslim population in the world. but it isn't a muslim country.
Fun fact, Papua is probably the only large island in Indonesia where Islam is not the major religion. Most islands where Islam does not make up the majority of the population are usually small, such as Hinduism in Bali and Christianity the Lesser Sunda islands.
There are also scattered Christian (both Protestant and Catholic) minorities in Java. You should visit one of their villages, such as Mojowarno, Peniwen, Segaran, Sitiarjo, Rejoagung, etc.
whoa that statement "they dont look indonesian" is very much a bullshiii. Theres no such thing as "Indonesian face" because we indeed are very diverse and multicultural. Melanesian people spread not only in papua but Mollucas islands and Timor Island. so yeah
Idk about aussie, but afaik US still an ethnic based. Americans always says ethnicity first, like : Afro-american, chinese-american, latin-american, etc. But in Indonesia you all are Indonesian.
You got it the wrong way honey. Indonesia has supposed to be a unitary country. But muslims are always trying to dominate in this country. Thts why Papua really want to escaping from Indonesia. I'm wondering why Indonesia is known as a biggest Muslim country, even though there are so many islands, languages and many differences.

Lot of people stereotypes diverse countries like Indonesia and India where there are hundreds of ethnicities, languages, customs,traditions (and looks obviously), geography etc and usually identify with the one mostly visible in media. I'm Indian and while travelling in SE Asia, lot of locals thought I was Malay and Indonesian.
i kinda understand why they mistook you as local, when i visited bali, sometimes i have some difficulties to differentiate which one is the indian tourist which one is the indonesian 😂 bcs sometimes you will find some indian physical feature on indonesian especially on the western indonesian, my teacher back then always mistook me to have somewhat indian/arab ancestry bcs of my sharp nose, brownish skin, and thick eyebrow and eyelashes, when in reality i have no record abt that, im just a mix of ethnic java + minangkabau, well indeed some of our ancestors had been mixed with the indian traders in the past, some had been mixed with the chinese, european, arab, melanesian, and others. So yeah, indonesia is pretty a diverse country. The media only shows a small portion of us, bcs we're so into west pop culture and kpop, they select the one that has the closest look to the trend to be on our media, and voila you got that "typical" look of an indonesian, when you go to indonesia and find the reality that not all people look the same then you'll put the statement "oh they dont look like an indonesian", then when you scroll the comment section you'll always find the comments saying that indonesia occupies that particular area, saying us the same as "western colonizer", im so sick of this 😔, we're not colonizer, they are just poorly educated abt us

@@danand4918 First of all, Drew mentioned that West Papuan and Papua New Guinean are ethnically Melanesian (curly hair with dark skin) in the Pacific. Not like the rest of Indonesian, which majority are Asian and Muslim, for example the Javanese. If you learn geography, Indonesia are part of Southeast Asia. Plus, West Papuan are Pacific Islander race not black. You are saying people from the east of Indonesia are black (black are also known as African/American or African). That is one of the reasons why West Papuan want to get independence from Indonesia because they are ethnically different. So, please educate yourself about ethnicity and race not just “black” and “white”. 😂
@@darrasmith7196 you forgot to mention that melanesian ethnic not only in papua,but also in maluku,lesser sunda island and some part in sulawesi. And drew clearly wrong when he said papuan people not look like indonesia because indonesian itself is not racial country. Its just that majority of indonesian people is brown skinned. If you look chinese,brown skinned or melanesian you're already Indonesia because Indonesia is multiethnic country. You cant describe like what is indonesian look because indonesia is a form from hundred of ethnic tribe
Indonesia is made of many different race and ethnic. So I don't understand what you mean by "normal" Indonesian look. So let me ask,what is a "normal" American looks? Isit the Spanish,African or the whites? Not to mention Hawaiian people also very different from the mainland america.
West Papua is heavily subsidized by central government, about $5 billion each year.....it turns out, Freeport has small annual profit, just $2 billions each year, Indonesian govt only get $1 billion.
Nope, PT Freeport Indonesia total revenues in 2022 are US$ 9,39 billion, meanwhile special autonomy funds granted by the Indonesian government to Papua are 1092 trillion rupiah (around 70 billion dollar) for 20 years (2002-2022) or around 3.5 billion dollar per year
Well Indonesia did basically massacre half the population of the Papuans and steal their land now Papuans only make 48% of Irian jaya due to their Java centric Transmigration policies
@@ntkproductions1761 another stupid lie.....even a single killing is reported. Rebels are very violent, they committed a lot of massacres recently, like in Wamena. Health workers, road construction workers etc are often killed by rebels.
What do u mean they're not look alike Indonesian? Indonesian is NOT race but nationality. FYI: Indonesia is Standing in two continents Asia and Oceania (pretty similar to Russia (Europe and Asia) as well as Turkiye. When you travel all across Melanesian lands you will find out that Papua Indonesia is much more better in term of everything.
Don't look Indonesian? The term Indonesian doesn't refer to an ethnic, it's nationality bruh. Just like American, it's not ethnic but nationality. There's no ethnic in this world called "Indonesian" bruh

1:07 Indonesian has many type of looks Indonesia is not ethnicity it's name of country that becomes umbrella for all ethnicity and faces. I believe you not gonna said that to black american ( " you don't look like american " ) lol.
Sorry, as an Indonesian from Christian background, I would like to tell you that native Papuans only make up around 15% of all Indonesian Christians here. So the narrative of “Papuans want to escape Indonesia because they’re the Christians unlike the others” is totally irrelevant. The largest ethnic groups making up the Christian population in Indonesia are the Batak (in North Sumatra), the Tionghoa (spread all across Indonesia but mainly in Java, Sumatra, Borneo), the Javanese (self-explanatory), and the Minahasa (North Sulawesi). There are more Christians living in Java than there are in Indonesian Papua. None of these ethnic groups wants to separate themselves from Indonesia, on the contrary, they’re the ones who want to valiantly preserve the Indonesian republic. Some predominantly Islamic ethnic groups such as the Acehnese and Minangkabau (both located in Sumatra) historically had some resentment or even declared separatist movements against the Republic of Indonesia between 1950s and early 2000s.
West Papua not Indonesia It's Melanesia It's under occupation Indonesia occupy west Papua and islamize the nation there We should all speak out and save west Papua from radical islam and occupation
What makes you think Indonesia is an Islamic country? Yes we have the largest Muslim population in the whole world but don't forget we also have around 40 million non Muslim here and we're not a Muslim country, we're a Muslim majority country. There are provinces like Bali who is 90% Hindu, North Sulawesi 70% Christianity (protestant), and East Nusa Tenggara 90% Christianity (Catholics). And they have never protest or even demand independence, in fact they're among the most patriotic and proud of being Indonesian. Meanwhile the bloodiest and longest separatist movement Indonesia have faced against is Aceh War, with 99% Muslim they've the highest Muslim percentage in Indonesia. Also they tried to become an independent Caliphate and now after 2005 peace treaty they're the only province that have devolved parliament and its own local political party and the only province to implement strict Islamic Sharia Law.
Keren dan menarik video ekslusif Drew tentang Jayapura dan Papua. Saya nonton video ini 2 kali. Drunk eyes itu seperti apa bisa dilihatin/ jelaskan kayak apa, Drew? Fun to watch Drew adventure dengan local tour guide. Semoga Drew dan teman lokalnya bisa bersama membuat video kunjungannya ke banyak kota-kota di pulau - pulau Indonesia Timur, seperti Papua & Maluku Indonesia.
so what if West Papua is part of Indonesia even though shares similar Melanesian culture with Papua New Guinea? what's your problem with it? it has been part of Indonesia since long, are u making this video to share your political view?? you rarely make contents about Indonesia except the negative ones
@@noname-qk2ut why you keep replying to me? If you have an opinion, write down on the comment under your name. but not on my comment. my comment is about drew sharing his political view about Papua, not about Indonesia history related to the Dutch. I have no interest to have argument with you about this matter. If I want information about if Indonesia will be exist without Dutch occupation, I will look for it by myself from reliable and trustworthy source, but definitely not from you!! so get the hell out of my comment and do what you wanna do or say by yoursef!!!!!!!!
No Papua was forced to become Indonesian in 1963 and then later in 1969. Papua never wanted to become part of Indonesia and was about to gain independence. Then Indonesia attacked and caused massacres. Killed half the Papuan population.
I hope you enjoy your stay in Indonesia Drew. You might want to consider visiting our newly appointed capital city that is still in building progress, Nusantara, and it's surrounding supporting cities in east Borneo island. 😁
@@dingobonzaWhat is the capital of Papua? What is the tallest mountain of Papua? Name 5 district in Papua Clearly you are fucking clueless about Papua, and yet you spout those shit Just look at how Australia slurped all Timor Leste oil resources, you're hungry for Papuan gold aren't you?
Don't get me wrong, west Papuans elected their own governors, mayors, parliament members, so they have a degree of autonomy. What makes it different from Papua New Guinea is Indonesian central government provides subsidies, financial support, and infrastructures to them. Not to mention many people from other parts of Indonesia are developing the areas and economies in west Papua. Had they fully governed the territory as their own country, it would not be this prosperous.
"Indonesian Diverse", meanwhile Indonesian complain if their "Suku" not speak Bahasa Indonesia. 😂 Edit : We all Austronesian. That's why we all have brownish skin color, black eyes. 🥸✌🏻
Indonesia itu bahasa Nasional, itu hukumnya wajib, tapi setiap etnis dan suku juga wajib menjaga dan melestarikan bahasa ibu mereka masing², Di Malaysia orang minang, orang jawa, orang bugis, orang aceh, irang dayak semua dipaksa menjadi melayu.
Jadi ingat pengalaman pribadi dengar kata dia "West Papua They don't look like Indonesian" 😂. Pengalaman kami sekeluarga dari Jayapura Papua saat liburan ke Malaysia, Singapore & Thailand, saat itu kami berjumpa bnyak orang di masing-masing negara yg kami kunjungi!! Dan Pertanyaan yg sama yang selalu mereka tanyakan!! "Where are you guys from?, dan kami menjawab Indonesia... Tiba tiba mereka diam sejenak sambil mikir seperti g yakin begitu!!! 😂😂 dan tiba tiba respon mereka spontan keluar " But you guys don't look like Indonesian!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Orang luar emang agak kurang info Soal Indonesia...... Di Malaysia itu ada propaganda namanya " Alam Melayu " yg ngira klo Di Indonesia itu Mayoritasnya Orang Melayu semua 😂
Right - I am a journalist who lived in Indonesia for years, I speak Bahasa, I work with Indonesians. I played for national rugby team and my closest teammate was papuan. Every Indonesia comment you made is wrong and the view propogated by all the lazy journalists who come through for their careers.
for every westerner who have consumed the propaganda, i will tell you something from the history book (world history, not something indonesian make). the west papua is a region that gone into long dispute between the netherland and indonesia, eventually the united nation take over the government for a month and after that the people were given the option to vote between staying with indonesia or get their own independence with the help of the netherland after the round table agreement and the vote result was they want to stay with indonesia. the remarkable local hero who loves indonesia till he died jailed by the dutch is frans keisiepo which had his face and name printed on indonesian rupiah 10k bill. you can search this history anywhere. so please educate yourself and please just mind your own country, supporting separatist movement of other country is nasty af.
Indonesia is colonized west papua, Indonesia means "Indian island" and has nothing to do with south east asian . Back in the day indoNazia try invade other SEA country to make "Greater IndoNazia", thats why Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand & GB joint military group FPDA . To prevent indonazia from invading other SEA country.
They don't look like Indonesian? What does an Indonesian look like? Indonesia is not an ethnicity, it's a nationality. Indonesia consists of many ethnic groups. Also Indonesia is not a Muslim country. It's a Muslim majority country. There's a difference.
Wish u started a campaign for hatay antakya. I know you love the whole region of Turkey. South east.Or have u already? Im not on instagram so i havent followed what you posted. But i checked community and nothing was there.
That fish dinner you had is a product of culture rich papua with all regions of Indonesia with their seasonings, sambal, etc. What do you mean disrespectful? Papuan natives been there and here in Indonesia, they are in the army, serving as presidential staff, scientist, enjoyed better education, living than the east side of the island.
Bcuz most americans have adhere paranoid and don't really know how to clean plants from parasite. Heck some of them don't even know that the brocolis on their salad often times have something similar.
West Papua is not Indonesia It struggels for independence since more than 50 years and is widely known as a prominent example of neocolonialsm and modern occupation.
I love all your videos Drew. But I must say what you said about “looking Indonesian” is WRONG on many levels. It’s factually wrong, it’s ethnically wrong, and it’s discriminatory. There are people who harbor those kinds of thoughts about Jews and I wonder how you would react if someone made that type of comment about you or your background?
The Papuans also use it when they are protesting in Jakarta, so idk like no real problem with it. It also used to be legal to fly the flag during the 4th president era, but I'm not really sure for now.
I am also sad for my PNG brothers and sisters for their systemic rape of their rich natural resources over in Hidden Valley, Hides, Simberi, Lihir, etc
I am sorry, could you explain what you said, " the local people here who don't feel respected by the government "? ...did you make any study of it, or did you misspeak?...I challenge you to answer it....!!!!
I mean 15-60 years ago this would be accurate, the only thing wrong is Papua was not Indonesian colony, maybe treated like colony but not an colony Now current president is W and Papua are getting better, just sad his reign will be over 160 days later
This is the guy who experience border crossing to PNG via batas otw to Vanemo and found out PNG side is closed due to binge drinking. What do you know about what my papua brother needs? More booze and western culture? 😂😂😂
The problem is that the Javanese themselves are mixed race. You can easily find chinese/japanese/korean/malay/arab/european/indian javanese As long as you use Javanese, people will think you are Javanese no matter your race

@@danand4918 First of all, Drew mentioned that West Papuan and Papua New Guinean are ethnically Melanesian (curly hair with dark skin) in the Pacific. Not like the rest of Indonesian, which majority are Asian and Muslim, for example the Javanese. If you learn geography, Indonesia are part of Southeast Asia.
Plus, West Papuan are Pacific Islander race not black. You are saying people from the east of Indonesia are black (black are also known as African/American or African).
That is one of the reasons why West Papuan want to get independence from Indonesia because they are ethnically different.
So, please educate yourself about ethnicity and race not just “black” and “white”. 😂
@@darrasmith7196 you forgot to mention that melanesian ethnic not only in papua,but also in maluku,lesser sunda island and some part in sulawesi.
And drew clearly wrong when he said papuan people not look like indonesia because indonesian itself is not racial country. Its just that majority of indonesian people is brown skinned. If you look chinese,brown skinned or melanesian you're already Indonesia because Indonesia is multiethnic country. You cant describe like what is indonesian look because indonesia is a form from hundred of ethnic tribe
Indonesia is made of many different race and ethnic. So I don't understand what you mean by "normal" Indonesian look. So let me ask,what is a "normal" American looks? Isit the Spanish,African or the whites? Not to mention Hawaiian people also very different from the mainland america.
West Papua is heavily subsidized by central government, about $5 billion each year.....it turns out, Freeport has small annual profit, just $2 billions each year, Indonesian govt only get $1 billion.
Nope, PT Freeport Indonesia total revenues in 2022 are US$ 9,39 billion, meanwhile special autonomy funds granted by the Indonesian government to Papua are 1092 trillion rupiah (around 70 billion dollar) for 20 years (2002-2022) or around 3.5 billion dollar per year
@@austronesianpride5162 Nope, check net profit of Freeport not revenue. Don't forget to include DIPA for all four provinces. Otsus fund just bonus.
Well Indonesia did basically massacre half the population of the Papuans and steal their land now Papuans only make 48% of Irian jaya due to their Java centric Transmigration policies
@@ntkproductions1761 another stupid lie.....even a single killing is reported. Rebels are very violent, they committed a lot of massacres recently, like in Wamena. Health workers, road construction workers etc are often killed by rebels.
@@ntkproductions1761 massacre half of the population? that's a big lie, you've been brainwashed by a propagandas media
Thank you for your tips for the travelers to travel in West Papua, Indonesia.
What do u mean they're not look alike Indonesian? Indonesian is NOT race but nationality.
FYI: Indonesia is Standing in two continents Asia and Oceania (pretty similar to Russia (Europe and Asia) as well as Turkiye.
When you travel all across Melanesian lands you will find out that Papua Indonesia is much more better in term of everything.
Except freedom raise the Papuan flag 17 yrs jail nice 😢

Wow West Papua is the last tourist frontier. Definitely like to go for a few days.

Offcause they don't look like Indonesia people, cause they are part of papua new guinea.

Great video drew
Strange timing to upload this with recent developments in Papua
Don't look Indonesian? The term Indonesian doesn't refer to an ethnic, it's nationality bruh. Just like American, it's not ethnic but nationality. There's no ethnic in this world called "Indonesian" bruh
😂😂😂😂
Sembunyiin fakta?
@@nreralpapua Loh, faktanya memang kata "tampang orang Indonesia" itu tidak merujuk ke suku tertentu saja. Indonesia terdiri dari 1,300 suku bangsa, tentunya tampang orang Indonesia sangat beragam dan berbeda-beda.
@@hafizilmi7255 tambang mana bang? Milik banyak suku ITU?
@@nreralpapua Iya betul kita bangsa yang majemuk dan otulah kebanggaan kita. Jerman dan Austria sama-sama bahasa Jerman dan sama-sama ras Jerman, tapi mereka beda negara. Sementara kita berbeda agama ras suku bahasa tetap satu jua di dalam bingkai Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia.
1:07 Indonesian has many type of looks Indonesia is not ethnicity it's name of country that becomes umbrella for all ethnicity and faces. I believe you not gonna said that to black american ( " you don't look like american " ) lol.
Sorry, as an Indonesian from Christian background, I would like to tell you that native Papuans only make up around 15% of all Indonesian Christians here.
So the narrative of “Papuans want to escape Indonesia because they’re the Christians unlike the others” is totally irrelevant. The largest ethnic groups making up the Christian population in Indonesia are the Batak (in North Sumatra), the Tionghoa (spread all across Indonesia but mainly in Java, Sumatra, Borneo), the Javanese (self-explanatory), and the Minahasa (North Sulawesi). There are more Christians living in Java than there are in Indonesian Papua.
None of these ethnic groups wants to separate themselves from Indonesia, on the contrary, they’re the ones who want to valiantly preserve the Indonesian republic.
Some predominantly Islamic ethnic groups such as the Acehnese and Minangkabau (both located in Sumatra) historically had some resentment or even declared separatist movements against the Republic of Indonesia between 1950s and early 2000s.
Understand that Drew is Jewish background.
West Papua not Indonesia
It's Melanesia
It's under occupation
Indonesia occupy west Papua and islamize the nation there
We should all speak out and save west Papua from radical islam and occupation
What makes you think Indonesia is an Islamic country? Yes we have the largest Muslim population in the whole world but don't forget we also have around 40 million non Muslim here and we're not a Muslim country, we're a Muslim majority country.
There are provinces like Bali who is 90% Hindu, North Sulawesi 70% Christianity (protestant), and East Nusa Tenggara 90% Christianity (Catholics). And they have never protest or even demand independence, in fact they're among the most patriotic and proud of being Indonesian.
Meanwhile the bloodiest and longest separatist movement Indonesia have faced against is Aceh War, with 99% Muslim they've the highest Muslim percentage in Indonesia. Also they tried to become an independent Caliphate and now after 2005 peace treaty they're the only province that have devolved parliament and its own local political party and the only province to implement strict Islamic Sharia Law.
😂😂😂 Indonesia never be islamic country
This video was really fun, glad you make it

Keren dan menarik video ekslusif Drew tentang Jayapura dan Papua. Saya nonton video ini 2 kali. Drunk eyes itu seperti apa bisa dilihatin/ jelaskan kayak apa, Drew? Fun to watch Drew adventure dengan local tour guide. Semoga Drew dan teman lokalnya bisa bersama membuat video kunjungannya ke banyak kota-kota di pulau - pulau Indonesia Timur, seperti Papua & Maluku Indonesia.

West Papua has been under Indonesian occupation for over sixty years.
A low intensity guerrilla war is being conducted by the OPM.
Occupation my ass, ask any president even North Korea or even Dutch, Indonesia colonizer they will say Papua is a part of Indonesia
Papuans dont want to be separated, stay away you propagandist.
Who says indonesia is a muslim country? Most moslem are in java island where the capital city is located.. other islands have different majority
Saying indonesia a moslem country is like saying USA a christian country just because you see a lot of white people 🤦🏻♂️

You could say that the Indonesian Nation is a "Federation of all nations who live and grow up in the territory of the Indonesian state."
so what if West Papua is part of Indonesia even though shares similar Melanesian culture with Papua New Guinea? what's your problem with it? it has been part of Indonesia since long, are u making this video to share your political view?? you rarely make contents about Indonesia except the negative ones
You have to thank the Dutch for that
@@noname-qk2ut not at all
@@theislandgirladventures yes, indenosia exist because of Dutch East Indies company
@@noname-qk2ut why you keep replying to me? If you have an opinion, write down on the comment under your name. but not on my comment. my comment is about drew sharing his political view about Papua, not about Indonesia history related to the Dutch. I have no interest to have argument with you about this matter. If I want information about if Indonesia will be exist without Dutch occupation, I will look for it by myself from reliable and trustworthy source, but definitely not from you!! so get the hell out of my comment and do what you wanna do or say by yoursef!!!!!!!!
No Papua was forced to become Indonesian in 1963 and then later in 1969. Papua never wanted to become part of Indonesia and was about to gain independence. Then Indonesia attacked and caused massacres. Killed half the Papuan population.
Came back to Wamena west Papua and you Will see paradise my friend 😊
Went visit to west Papua again I want meet you give Respect 🤝
The super short haircuts suit you !
I hope you enjoy your stay in Indonesia Drew. You might want to consider visiting our newly appointed capital city that is still in building progress, Nusantara, and it's surrounding supporting cities in east Borneo island. 😁
West Papua is not Indonesia. West Papua is West Papua. Free West Papua!
@@dingobonzaWhat is the capital of Papua? What is the tallest mountain of Papua? Name 5 district in Papua
Clearly you are fucking clueless about Papua, and yet you spout those shit
Just look at how Australia slurped all Timor Leste oil resources, you're hungry for Papuan gold aren't you?
Don't get me wrong, west Papuans elected their own governors, mayors, parliament members, so they have a degree of autonomy. What makes it different from Papua New Guinea is Indonesian central government provides subsidies, financial support, and infrastructures to them. Not to mention many people from other parts of Indonesia are developing the areas and economies in west Papua. Had they fully governed the territory as their own country, it would not be this prosperous.
"Indonesian Diverse", meanwhile Indonesian complain if their "Suku" not speak Bahasa Indonesia. 😂
Edit : We all Austronesian. That's why we all have brownish skin color, black eyes. 🥸✌🏻
Indonesia itu bahasa Nasional, itu hukumnya wajib, tapi setiap etnis dan suku juga wajib menjaga dan melestarikan bahasa ibu mereka masing²,

Jadi ingat pengalaman pribadi dengar kata dia "West Papua They don't look like Indonesian" 😂. Pengalaman kami sekeluarga dari Jayapura Papua saat liburan ke Malaysia, Singapore & Thailand, saat itu kami berjumpa bnyak orang di masing-masing negara yg kami kunjungi!! Dan Pertanyaan yg sama yang selalu mereka tanyakan!! "Where are you guys from?, dan kami menjawab Indonesia... Tiba tiba mereka diam sejenak sambil mikir seperti g yakin begitu!!! 😂😂 dan tiba tiba respon mereka spontan keluar " But you guys don't look like Indonesian!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Orang luar emang agak kurang info Soal Indonesia......
Di Malaysia itu ada propaganda namanya " Alam Melayu " yg ngira klo Di Indonesia itu Mayoritasnya Orang Melayu semua 😂
dude thats a sign, raise your flag (the blue stripe one) wkwk
Right - I am a journalist who lived in Indonesia for years, I speak Bahasa, I work with Indonesians. I played for national rugby team and my closest teammate was papuan. Every Indonesia comment you made is wrong and the view propogated by all the lazy journalists who come through for their careers.
Thank you for speaking the truth Mister, that means a lot to us😊
Finally an honest, smart journalist who dont get brainwashed by those western media, thank u for u're honesty.
Nice bro
Poor Otis didn't get any money from any of this.
Yes, @adamboxoo, you are say it true but this is Just myexperimant
As an Indonesian, Papua is already consider "the most expensive place to live in Indonesia", yet Drew call it :
"SO CHEAP"
for every westerner who have consumed the propaganda, i will tell you something from the history book (world history, not something indonesian make). the west papua is a region that gone into long dispute between the netherland and indonesia, eventually the united nation take over the government for a month and after that the people were given the option to vote between staying with indonesia or get their own independence with the help of the netherland after the round table agreement and the vote result was they want to stay with indonesia. the remarkable local hero who loves indonesia till he died jailed by the dutch is frans keisiepo which had his face and name printed on indonesian rupiah 10k bill. you can search this history anywhere. so please educate yourself and please just mind your own country, supporting separatist movement of other country is nasty af.
Seems like a dangerous place. Binsky did not show us much. Seemed worried and afraid, always looking around. Stay away Papua! Thanks for the video!
Indonesia is colonized west papua, Indonesia means "Indian island" and has nothing to do with south east asian . Back in the day indoNazia try invade other SEA country to make "Greater IndoNazia", thats why Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand & GB joint military group FPDA . To prevent indonazia from invading other SEA country.
Youre either Malay or Singaporean
They don't look like Indonesian? What does an Indonesian look like? Indonesia is not an ethnicity, it's a nationality. Indonesia consists of many ethnic groups. Also Indonesia is not a Muslim country. It's a Muslim majority country. There's a difference.
Wish u started a campaign for hatay antakya. I know you love the whole region of Turkey. South east.Or have u already? Im not on instagram so i havent followed what you posted. But i checked community and nothing was there.

I love all your videos Drew. But I must say what you said about “looking Indonesian” is WRONG on many levels. It’s factually wrong, it’s ethnically wrong, and it’s discriminatory. There are people who harbor those kinds of thoughts about Jews and I wonder how you would react if someone made that type of comment about you or your background?
6:14: Glad that they sell the bags with the West papuan flag. Papua Merdeka!
The Papuans also use it when they are protesting in Jakarta, so idk like no real problem with it. It also used to be legal to fly the flag during the 4th president era, but I'm not really sure for now.
Well. Actually, lots of Indonesian provinces have their own flags tho.

Ah, West Papua. Indonesia's favourite copper mine-I mean colony-I mean territory.
I mean 15-60 years ago this would be accurate, the only thing wrong is Papua was not Indonesian colony, maybe treated like colony but not an colony
Now current president is W and Papua are getting better, just sad his reign will be over 160 days later

The Indonesian look that he meant was the javanese
💚💚
The problem is that the Javanese themselves are mixed race. You can easily find chinese/japanese/korean/malay/arab/european/indian javanese
As long as you use Javanese, people will think you are Javanese no matter your race
Just an advice.
Never give money with left hand in Indonesia, it’s rude.
