The Most HAUNTED Place In Indonesia 🇮🇩
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- Today I'm checking out the most haunted place in Indonesia, the Lawang Sewu. The Lawang Sewu (building of a thousand doors) was used by the railway headquarters of the Dutch East Indies Company. After the Japanese invaded in 1942, it turned into a military headquarters for the Japanese. When the Japanese surrendered in 1945, the Indonesian army was able to take it over. It was during this time that the bloodiest battle between the Indonesian fighters and the Japanese army took place. The Indonesian army wanted the weapons from the Japanese army and the Japanese commander in Semarang didn't want to hand them over to Sudirman and Gatoh Subroto, the commanders of the Indonesian army.
Because of all the executions and torture that took place in the building, it is known to be Indonesia's most haunted place. Before it was renovated in 2008, many horror films were filmed here also.

Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more videos from #Semarang
Hari ini saya akan mengunjungi tempat paling angker di Indonesia, Lawang Sewu. Lawang Sewu (gedung seribu pintu) digunakan oleh kantor pusat kereta api Perusahaan Hindia Belanda. Setelah Jepang menyerbu pada tahun 1942, itu berubah menjadi markas militer bagi Jepang. Ketika Jepang menyerah pada tahun 1945, tentara Indonesia mampu mengambil alih. Pada masa inilah pertempuran paling berdarah antara pejuang Indonesia dan tentara Jepang terjadi. Tentara Indonesia menginginkan senjata dari tentara Jepang dan komandan Jepang di Semarang tidak mau menyerahkannya kepada Soedirman dan Gatoh Subroto, komandan tentara Indonesia.
Karena semua eksekusi dan penyiksaan yang terjadi di gedung itu, dikenal sebagai tempat paling angker di Indonesia. Sebelum direnovasi pada tahun 2008, banyak film horor yang difilmkan di sini juga.
So, do you believe in ghosts?

IM believe comrade 👍
I believed in God but I know they are exist!!👻👻👻
Aku percaya pada yang gaib tapi tidak menyembahnya....
Karena Tuhan juga maha gaib
We do,we are asian, we keep our conservative and mythical belief,dont do this dont do that or you will be punished by spirit or supernatural thing
I think there's a museum about ghost and black magic in indonesia in surabaya
You should go there
Couldn't agree more, that 2 months vacuum of power must've been brutal that the Indonesian government immediately made the monument in the '50s... Thanks Nick!
for everyone on all sides it must of been a crazy time to be here
"Astaga" is an expression like "Oh my gosh". Sometimes some people go beyond the limit expressing it as "astaga naga", typically for something so surprising. "Naga" is dragon by the way. Yeah, it's so random 😂
ohh in interesting, thanks!
It's just because it's rhyme , like "holy molly"
"Pemuda" means youths or younger generations. It's not a name of an organization or anything, it's just an indonesian word for youths.
Woah.. you learn about the history of surabaya war and explain it really well. Not many foreigner and youtubers want to know about the historical story behind the place they visited. Props to you sir 👏
hello, I'm Raka's mother who held your camera when you went on stage at Lawang Sewu
Thanks for yet another enlightening video, Nick! Last time I visited Semarang was just before Covid hit but unfortunately didn’t get a chance to stop by Lawang Sewu. Btw that CFC was actually a franchise from America called Pioneer Take out before it is now completely owned and operated fully by Indonesia. And if you happen to encounter Texas Chicken (if you haven’t already) it was actually Church’s Chicken 😅 they go by different name here.
thanks! ill keep an eye out for Texas Chicken!
@@NickKTravel Oh and depending where you are right now, if you’re planning to stop by Jakarta again there’s a couple of museums I’d like to take you around to that I’m sure you’d be fascinated with its history or rather.. dark/sinister history 🙈
The man in the blue shirt sitting next to you and explaining the song "Mungkin Nanti" is Yanto Sianipar, Senior Vice President in Chevron Indonesia.
waw.. pantas saja bahasa inggris nya bagus, bukan bapak2 biasa..
Lmao that was some random encounter for sure
wow, i looked him up and sure enough that is him, how crazy! 😂
Hallo nick, maybe you can try to hear the song is “mungkin nanti” from Noah Band (one the bigest band in Indonesia), and the song also have japanese lyric with the tittle “Moshimo Mata Itsuka”, I hear you live for long time in japan, maybe you interesting about the song
Semarang is one of the most beautiful city in Indonesia..The old town and surrounding including Lawang Sewu is preserved beautifully.Something that other cities in Indonesia can learn from local Semarang government. I got an impression that Nick is more well knowledgeable than the local guide him self..I am sure that Harry the local guide is an expert guide but maybe because of the language barrier a lot of important info had not been delivered properly..but at least he tried his best.❤️🥰..Another impressive video Nick !!!!
I agree. Despite the language barrier i think the guide did a great job at explaining things. Though idk if its worth 100k 😅
yeah, he had a tough time explaining things, and i know a lot of my questions i asked him he didn't fully understand, he still tried his best
Nick, if you want to visit the mountain area in Semarang, you can visit Bandungan, there you can find the famous Gedongsongo Temple (9 temple), waterfall, and the warm of the local people
One reason why i keep watching your channel because you're smart man. Not only for walking around, but also for the historical side. Keep up the good work, bro!
Thank you for the wonderful tour, Nick. I went to Semarang once in mid 80s for some school trip. However, didn't know this place. Again, thank you and blessings 🙏🎉
It was a headquarter for Kodam Diponegoro back at 80s if I am not mistaken. It was used by regional Indonesian army headquarter
Yet another excellent, educative vlog Nick! I feel that our historical landmarks don't have enough care and enough tourist amenities to attract visitors, which is a shame. I hope that your channel gains popularity not just within Indonesia but also throughout the international audience as well. Hopefully it'll attract tourists and get the govt to start doing something as I hate to see those buildings being so "lifeless". Cheers from Surabaya!
the thing that like about your vlog is that is so raw which i like it very much. Not too much editing, just a simple vlog which gives a more engaging experience
Ghosts or no ghosts, these historical sites looked spooky enough to give goosebumps..
for real right!
@@NickKTravel Absolutely!
Awesome nick!!...we really appreciate what you did, finally you explored the building that became the icon of the city of Semarang. in addition to the history of the struggle of the Indonesian people, you can also learn about the history of the kingdoms that spread throughout Indonesia, the era of the kingdom in Indonesia may be almost the same as when you learned about the history of the samurai in Japan in the past. Keep it goin nick, your channel is very educational for today's young generation.
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for the video Nick, so i can see Lawang Sewu from outside and inside, good job
Very interesting vlog. Usually tourists from outside Indonesia just walk around and have fun. However, your vlog is unique in that it brings back to the history of Indonesians that may have been forgotten by today's younger generation. Nick, if you're really interested in the history and beauty of architecture, i suggest you visit the presidential palace of Indonesia, one of which is the Cipanas, presidential palace in West Java 😉👍👍
Just a suggestion, a video about top 5 foods or hotels that you experience in Indonesia, could be big hit for your youtube channel
In my opinion you know history better than the guide Nick, nice video as always, see you in Balikpapan
Nick, I really enjoy your vlogs. Please keep them coming.
Dulu saat 8 tahun merantau di Semarang tidak pernah masuk sedalam itu ke Lawang Sewu, karena saat itu bangunannya belum direnovasi.
Suasana "angker"nya masih sangat terasa karena waktu itu kondisi bangunan sangat tidak terurus.
Paling hanya "explore" dibagian luarnya saja.
Tapi itu juga sudah ketemu banyak hal yang aneh-aneh, baik dari manusianya yang tinggal di area itu, maupun dari hal lainnya.
Masih ada hantu nya ga sih bro di Sini?
10:05 Don't go to the basement nick...it is very haunted 😅. I've been there..it's so dark... and cold...🥶. It was originally built to store water for cooling down the temperature of floor above.
Awesome Nick ! I didnt had a chance to visit this building when i was there. Very proud of you to visit this memorial building.
Sekarang saya belajar sejarah bangsa saya dari nick melalui chanel ini. Terimakasih nick. God bless you.
trying my best to understand the english with javanese accent. i always loooved hearing people speak in english but never forget their roots! it is more challenging to decipher but that makes it so much fun to learn! i had fun watching this, nick. have fun on your indonesian trip! subscribed❤️
it's creepy, I used to almost walk into the basement because I didn't see the road
Yes nick most of us do believe in ghosts, when you go hike the mountains you need to be respectful towards the area because there are many stories that when you say bad words you can either get lost in the mountains or have ghosts look like one of your friends and get you confused. Here's a few channels of ppl that communicate with ghosts: Sara Wijayanto, Kisah Tanah Jawa, Jurnalrisa
Perfect time to upload Nick. Accompanying us breaking the fast 👍
We need more content like this Nick! not just walking around and trying street food, But also explore historical places in Indonesia. This is amazing, btw I got Goosebumps when you Explaining the Horrible Story about Lawang Sewu in the hallway.
Good job Nick.
I’m very impressed with you, your insight into Indonesian history is very good for a foreign tourist.
Here I will give you suggestions of places and foods that you have not had time to visit in Yogyakarta and Surakarta. The two cities are close together, about 2 hours by car.
I have seen your vlog in Yogyakarta. It was very good, but if you go back there I recommend this place for you to visit later:
1. Sri Getuk Waterfall
If the weather is good, you can swim there. You can go there in the morning or afternoon.
2. Paragliding Hill / Shoka Hill
Both have great views, you can see along the Parangtritis coastline from this location, and they are close together. You can choose Paragliding Hill if you want to enjoy the sunset with a peaceful atmosphere, or Shoka Hill if you want to enjoy the sunset while eating typical Jogja dishes. I suggest you come here in the afternoon before sunset.
3. Pengger Pine Forest
I suggest you come here at night. you can see the view of the city of Jogja from the top of the hill which is very beautiful.
4. Fried Cabbage / Kol Goreng
You can stop by the lesehan / tent on the side of the road. make sure there is "lesehan" written on the tent, you can find it anywhere at night. You can order fried catfish or fried chicken there, but don't forget to add “Kol Goreng” to your menu list. I'm sure you've never tried this food.
5. Merapi lava tour
For this one I suggest you to come on the 2nd day after visiting all the places before. It’s located quite far from the city center, precisely on the slopes of Mount Merapi. you can rent a jeep that will take you on an adventure to the remnants of the eruption of Mount Merapi. There you will find the Merapi museum which witnessed the enormity of the eruption at that time. In addition, there is another volcano museum that you can visit if you have time, there are miniatures and pictures of the eruption of Mount Merapi. If you like history, you will enjoy this trip.
The second destination is Surakarta City, you can go there directly after ending the tour in Merapi.
From Yogyakarta to Surakarta I suggest you to take the electric train (KRL). Depart from Tugu Jogja station to Purwosari Solo station.
Similar to Yogyakarta, Surakarta is the center of Javanese culture. If Yogyakarta has 1 palace, Surakarta has 2 palaces that you can visit.
1. Kasunanan Palace & Mangkunegaran Palace
You can visit one or both. The two are not too far apart. Both are no longer active as the center of government, but still have a king and royal soldiers. You can learn a lot about the Javanese kingdom there.
From Purwosari Station you can go directly to the bus stop to take a rapid transit bus called BST (Batik Solo Trans) to get to these two places.
2. Klewer Market / Kauman Batik Village
There are 2 ways to shop for batik clothes in Surakarta City. If you prefer traditional and cheap you can try Klewer Market, if you prefer something exclusive you can come to the batik-making village directly in Kauman. Both are not far from the Palace. Batik Solo/Surakata has been widely known as a quality Batik in Indonesia. You can buy some for the family back home.
3. Jaladara Train
Sepur jaladara is an old steam train tour that operates on Jalan Slamet Riyadi, side by side with other vehicle lanes. This train line is the same line that was used during the Dutch colonial period.
To be able to ride Jaladara, you can ask the officers at the Purwosari train station about the departure schedule and ticket costs.
4. Galabo & Nasi Liwet
In the evening you can go to Galabo to enjoy traditional food in the city center. In the morning, you can find Nasi Liwet on the roadside in every corner of the city, only in morning. To be able to find Nasi Liwet, you have to go down to the street around 6-7 am. If it's too late they are closed. Nasi liwet Solo is different from Nasi liwet in Bandung, very different, only the name is the same. you must try it.
5. De Tjolomadoe
Lastly, before you end this trip. You can visit De Tjolomadoe, which is a former large Dutch sugar factory that has been restored and used as a historical tourist spot.
And don't forget to interact with local people in both cities, they are very friendly. Good work, I really like your content. 👍🏻
He didn't lie that they threw the bodies to the river at that time. How sad 😔can't imagine what it'd be like.
man, that's brutal
Yeah,The Japanese army shot everyone there.
@@NickKTravel during 5 days battle on Semarang, thats can be brutal time for Semarang citizens. Those region is residentials zone and become hq for Japan those time. Theres any more radicals japanese forces than they wish to work with Pemuda's. The radicals Japanese murders, burn the Kampongs and do more brutal actions at Semarang after issued kill a doctors who investigates poisoning well. In short time, battle is coming anywhere and Japanese finnaly surrounded at those building. But battles goes anywhere. Bodies can be found anywhere and just let it go until cease fire happen. On 7th days, surrounded residentials is daring them self to go out from them house and found bodies overwhelmed the river behind Lawang Sewu. Actually there also massacre happen on lawang sewu and the women prisoners of Bulu (probably 1 km from the lawang sewu, at front of ADA supermart today)

@@pancayogapurnama6787 Sorry friends, if I may give you a suggestion, don't go to Indonesia.

For me my personal opinion , Indonesia county pretty weird country in southeast Asia you know , and so a...
Nick you amaze me
You know history indonesia better than indonesian people it self
Thanks for the sharing of history in semarang

The Sun & Moon Cast into the Hell-Fire, ‘The intent of them being in the Hell-Fire is not that they will be punished there, but they will be a remorse for those who worshipped them in the Dunyaa, so that those people know that their worship of them was false.’
terima kasih Nick saya baru pertama kali melihat Lawang Sewu di youtube channel anda, Finally !
I think there's a museum about ghost and black magic in indonesia in surabaya
You should go there
Your explanation bout Indonesia's history a lot much better than my teacher when I was in High School 😁
i think so... haha, our teacher are textbook machine... lol
Near the city of Semarang there is also a Dutch heritage, in the city of Ambarawa.
- Ambarawa Railway Museum (Willem I . Station - 1873)
- Pendem Fort (Fort Willem I - 1834)
Huge historical building..so interesting, there two funny moments i i think..first Nick more known history battle better than guide.., and two when Nick answered " mungkin nanti " , the band recognized requested that a song title..ehehe..akward and funny too..thanks Nick..this first time I Saw inside that Lawang Sewu
I hope you have fun and enjoy in indonesia nick, good job 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
That building history is actually a lot more disturbing, especially under japanese rule, as many elders said 3,5 years of japan colonialism is a lot painful than hundred years of dutch colonialism..
- There's a chamber where japanese army used to execute people
- Japanese army also used to bring their "s*x slaves" to Lawang Sewu
- Japanese army would execute their slaves if they get pregnant. There was some who got hanged by the Japanese under the ceiling of those corridors.
- There's a lot of beheading, and torture happened in those rooms.
- There used to be a massacre of locals milita group called "Tentara Keamanan Rakjat" .
- They used to forcefully drag people to 3rd floor to be tortured until they meet their fate. And there's more..
It's actually sad and painful monument that always remind me of how colonizers disrespectfully treat our ancestors.
Underground jail (basement) in lawang sewu have a lot of story not just about mistic (ghosts) but a lot of story / history about the prisoners who locked up there.
I forgot how the year before restoration, me and my friends with guide can access underground jail in lawang sewu, its very spooky and also memorable.
I don't know right know, access in underground jail is closed or still open?
If still open, you must visit underground jail nick..
Great video! Been there too👋🏼 my father was born in Semarang 🇮🇩🇳🇱
wow, iam impressed with your knowledge of the history Indonesian people during the war. FYI the fact is that the Lawang Sewu building only has 928 doors. Not a thousand like the name of the building but it almost that number.
One of the greatest colonial buildings in Indonesia. They had very good architects and civil engineers
CFC is maybe Canteen Fried Chicken. Local shop or warung in Indonesia often use pelesetan. Pelesetan is words game in Indonesia. Example, you sell fried chicken in Kuta at Bali. You can give name your shop is KFC (Kuta Fried Chicken)
Thanks for sharing this video Nick. I never visit Lawang Sewu. Your video really Cool 👍👍❤. You read a lot about Indonesia History, very impressive 🤩🤩🤩.
As an Indonesian citizen, I hope that the quality of English-speaking tour guides in Indonesia will always improve, to make it more comfortable for foreign tourists.
There's still time to learn ya! Semangat!
Hello from Singapore!
Nick, you could be a history teacher😆i'm learning history and also haggling skills thru you.!spicy food gives me hiccups too!enjoy and have a nice time.
Hello. I’m from Indonesia live in Alabama. Been watching on you tube.
Wow... You know that much Nick? I appreciate it... You awsome....
Hallo nick, maybe you can try to hear the song is “mungkin nanti” from Noah Band (one the bigest band in Indonesia), and the song also have japanese lyric with the tittle “Moshimo Mata Itsuka”, I hear you live for long time in japan, maybe you interesting about the song
Watching your vlog is a wholesome experience...you gave insight about history, the interaction with the locals which is awesome, the food experiences of your perspective, awesome scenery and places...
Love your work Nick, keep it up mate
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Eii Nick, Try to make a video of your daily life where you live now, it must be fun and I'm also curious :)
great vid dude! specially u learn, research and tell us history trivia 👍🏼
This is an appreciation post for the guide. You did a great job translated and explained the history of Lawang Sewu pak. I've never really been there so this is a new knowledge for me☺👍
Dinas Pariwisata Kota Semarang, please...perbanyak lagi pelatihan untuk pemandu bahasa asing..agar punya guide guide yang mumpuni berbahasa asing terutama Bahasa Inggris..
I hope you can go to Selo Boyolali, Borobudur Magelang and Prambanan Klaten, Colomadu Solo sugar factory, Cetho temple, Sukuh, Grojogan Sewu waterfall, Tawangmangu Karanganyar, ... Etc...Surakarta..
cool... you are good at telling the history of the Indonesian smoothly
occasionally travel in the city of Indonesia, bring a friend who can speak Indonesian, bro Nicki, welcome to Indonesia, which has so many natural attractions, bro
Your knowledge about the history ,so amazing👍🏼
The ending is really make my day NICK
200 meters from Lawang Sewu there is the Central Java governor's guesthouse (Mr. Ganjar Pranowo) and behind the governor's guesthouse is Dian Nuswantoro University. I graduated from Dian Nuswantoro University in 2008😁
Good Job Nick 😁👍
Your Semarang my hometown video make me happy.
Thank you.
sebelum lawang sewu di renovasi,
bisa turun ke ruang bawah tanah, pakai sepatu bot yang sudah di sediakan, sekarang ditutup mungkin karena semua hantu di pindah di sama biar tidak mengganggu para pengunjung,
di ruang atas yang di tutup juga masih boleh naik,
ruangan yg di tengah sebelah pohon mangga itu adalah museum lawang sewu, ada bahan2 & material bangunan yang lama. dan foto2 restorasinya. sayang sekali nick ga masuk sana.
Tugu obor yg di opening video, itu sebagai tanda tentang "pertempuran 5 hari di semarang" pertempuran besar berdarah di tampat itu sampai 5hari.
Mungkin nanti was actually really a big song back in the day. Group name was Peterpan before they changed it to Noah
lived 5 years in Semarang.
entered Lawang Sewu once with an ex.
the experience haunts me still.
so yes i do believe in ghosts.
anyway...
i love how you showcased the site.
cheers, mate!
what's more haunt you? your ex or the ghost hahaha
@@NOVACHRONOO masih angker ga sih bro skg, Setelah di renovasi?
Hello Nick my name is Surya Adhyaksa From Jakarta,
I Love The USA 🇺🇲
Go to Pekalongan, Nick, the world city of Batik. It only takes about 1 hour by train from Semarang.
starting to get Bald Bankrupt or Harald vibes here lol, cool. curious on where you'll be headed next after Indonesian trip, cheers from Bandung
luckily I had come to Lawang Sewu before the restoration and got a full guide from the guide at that time. I added some information regarding Lawang Sewu.
1. The rooftop: I think it's a cool place, if you're allowed to go upstairs. You will see some remnants of the war. There is an iron structure that melted due to the explosion of a bomb thrown from the Japanese army. And the top floor is also the place of execution of Indonesian soldiers at that time. Some of the steel structures and wooden structures are still on the upper floors.
2. Basement: I got this information from my Architecture Lecturer. Basement is a unique place. In addition to a place to store wine, Lawang Sewu Basement is used for the ventilation system. a kind of traditional Air Conditioning (AC) system at that time. Because Semarang has hot weather, the Dutch government had to make a system to cool the building.
During the Japanese occupation the basement was used as a prison. There is a prison standing: prisoners are chained to the walls. There is a squat prison, its shape is like a small bathtub. some captives will be soaked there.
As explained when the bodies were dumped in the river, near the hole, in the basement was the execution area. Beheading place, there is a large enough room, in the middle there is a wooden block for beheading, on the right side there are small tubs for beheaded heads.
All I know is that the Rootop area and post-restoration basement are forbidden places. For tourism purposes this area should not be entered and not discussed. Even when my friend visited there, the guide would say there was no basement.
There used to be night tours and we could go around Lawang Sewu at night. maybe it's still there but the permit is difficult.
I think the stairs to the basement were deliberately destroyed so that no one could access to the bottom.
they have the funds to restore the place to be nice and pretty. But don't have the funds to build a staircase to the basement? Don't have the funds to pump water from the basement to the outside?
that guide seemed a bit confused..made me miss MR Catur from the Sunda Kelapa vlog xD
the Lawang Sewu management could've done better..oh well..
anyways.. another interesting video Nick keep it up :D
was it explained by the tour guide what the function of the rooms under the Lawang Sewu building, built by the Dutch? In the past, these rooms were for storing water, so the room above was not hot, like an air conditioner.
actually, at the Fatahillah Museum in the Old City area of Jakarta, there is also a dungeon which is famous for being haunted. they kept the chains with iron balls that the prisoners used in the past.
One day you must make a video about "haunted buildings" in Indonesia 🤭
Ruang bawah tanah ?
Sama seperti si Gedung Merdeka Asia Afrika Bandung ,di bawah jalan raya Asia Afrika di depan gedung AA ,awalnya ada ruang ruang ,sempat di gunakan ,dan lorong lorong ,sampai ke belakang ,dahulu ada bangunan penjara Kebon Kawung .(sekarang telah di rubah jadi pertokoan).
Minimal menghubungkan 3 gedung jaman itu ,dan sempat ruang ruang itundi jadikan Bar di jamannya .
I recommend that you try fasting, holding back hunger and thirst from dawn to dusk, it's okay not to try it, and it looks like it's good content for you nick
The Tour Guide English Is Not So Good, But He Tried The Best He Can, The Best Tour Guide Is The Lady Explain About Asia Africa Confrence Building In Bandung, She is Great English & Great Knowledge, Miss My Home Town Bandung Anyway...
I like your history channel, i subscribe you, thank you nick
Nice historical content Nick👍👍
Thanks to Nick, I recall all my history class lesson in almost every of his video.
nick... I have a slightly scary experience about Lawang Sewu, Semarang, I can't see ghosts but they seem to tell me their existence is real and exists through my cellphone.. at that time I really believed that ghosts existed.
closed stair to go up one of my favorite place Nick, That was sniper hiding and shooted. really sad late to know you come to Semarang. Thank you for Coming, please let me know if you come back to Semarang Nick. Matur Nuwun (It mean, Thank you in Semarang)
Last time I was at lawang sewu was back in 2014, it was a study trip with my highschool, back then the basement was still open to public, it was an interesting experience going down there!
I looked though the building before it opened up as a museum. And yeah the ghosts were well known back then too. Tuga Muda is in the centre of the roundabout. The Jawa Tengah Governor's house is across the road and the HQ of TNI in Jawa Tengah on the other side of the turnpike too.
Also the semarang cathedral
@@EA_SET Yes the Catholic Cathedral is there and my Father in Law and Mother in Law got married in that Church. I forgot about that!
@@jp95js the church is even older than lawang sewu
@@EA_SET I believe you. I was surprised that Semarang had so many Catholics. My wife is ashli kota Semarang, Prebumi and Catholic. That made things simple because I am too a Catholic so being of the same religion made getting married easier in Indonesia.
Hi Nick, I think you should go to West Borneo, probably in Singkawang City.There is a lot of interesting culture and delicious food. And the city is nickname the City of a thousand Temples. Thx
California Fried Chicken (CFC) is not American brand, It's a local (Indonesia) brand.
Saya juga heran kenapa mereka menyebut CFC , Ayamnya asli Indonesia, yang masak, dan bumbunya juga semua dari Indonesia, tapi brand yang kebarat baratan membuat pikiran kebanyakan konsumen tergila-gila karenanya, banyak brand asing di sematkan pada produk lokal, Ayam bangkok yang netas gede kawin di indonesia, jambu bangkok, Pepaya California dll.padahal biji di tanam tumbuh dan berbuah di Indonesia.
@@sulaimanrosid1538
CFC dulunya perusahaan milik Amerika (kalau tidak salah namanya Pioneer), saat hampir bangkrut kemudian sahamnya dibeli oleh pengusaha lokal.
Sekarang CFC sudah sepenuhnya milik orang Indonesia & dioperasikan oleh karyawan orang Indonesia juga.
woah.. you are in semarang already.. too bad here in bandung we're going to held commemoration for Asia-Africa Conference, tomorrow
Hopefully you have tried "Tahu Gimbal".. you can't missed that when you are visiting Semarang..
i never came to lawang sewu, but now i can see of virtual traveling to lawang sewu.. awsome nick!
You can also explore anothe historic building called Sam Poo Kong, it is Chinese tample that estabilished by Muslim Chinese explorer in the past. or having signature semarang food like Bandeng Fish, Wingko or lunpia. maybe having Poffertjes, originally netherlands food that u can buy in Toko Oen and its pretty famous.
idk if i go to semarang feels like it's city pretty well acculturated many culture with Past the Netherland, Chinese, the Local Muslim and Javanese Culture.
Semoga chanelmu berkembang pesat 😃
some Indonesians have bonds with the spirits of their ancestors that make them unable to move to other places. similar to the story of the Thai people they are tied to their ancestral land.
Ooh that's interesting. Can you tell me more about it?
