In Indonesia, racism still exists, sometimes a small form of racism is implied or hidden in a joke when we banter between friends. Our nation is not a perfect nation, but we hope we can continue to uphold our country's slogan "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika" which means "unity in diversity" because we have various races. Thanks for the video
Racism is basically an act of discrimination against a race. if you mean to describe the characteristics of a certain race, it is only limited to a joke, it is not an act of racism because there is no element of discrimination there. don't get me wrong in interpreting racism so that new sensitivities emerge.
Many black people who are not angry are called "black-man" in Indonesia because they understand that it is not a element of discrimination, it's the same when we call white people "bule". in Indonesia, all of these calls do not contain elements of discrimination, they are only limited to calls to describe the characteristics of a race. Don't equate it with the US when calling the N-word, automatically it is an act of discrimination because there is a bad history of discrimination behind the call.
Racist jokes do exist in Indonesia. I'm Indian-Chinese born and raised in Indonesia. My friends always joke about Indian and Chinese people (stereotypes) and I also joke back about Javanese and Sundanese stereotypes. No one ever has hard feelings about it because we know those were jokes and we truly respect each other. In my experience, people who call on others racist have hatreds buried deep in their hearts just as much as a true racist do.
Jangan mengatakan anda black, black & black lagi... Bagi saya, tidak menyenangkan untuk saya dengar. Bagi orang Indonesia tidak menyebut nama warna kulit merupakan hal Yang sensitif walaupun anda menyebut untuk diri anda sendiri. Kecuali kepada orang Yang sudah sangat dekat Dan berteman Lama. 🙏🙏🙏
@@akico9537kaga, itu bias aja, karena rasisme sering terjadi pada orang kulit hitam, makanya kedengerannya rasis. padahal mahh yaa “orang kulit putih” biasa aja, “brown people” biasa aja.

Tentunya tidak baik merendahkan dirinya sendiri saat berada di Indonesia, seperti dia sendiri Yang menciptakan jarak dia dengan orang Indonesia. Padahal dia sudah merasakan keterbukaan orang Indonesia terhadap orang asing. Lebih baik menyebutkan nama Sheku daripada Black. Kalau Black, seperti konotasi mengajak orang untuk merendahkan dirinya. Hanya saja, saya kesulitan menjelaskan kepadanya dengan keterbatasan bahasa. Dia tahu sikap orang Indonesia kepada dirinya tapi dia tidak tahu harus bersikap apa. Saya harap ada Yang dapat menjelaskan kepadanya.
Where you from is not important here. As long as you show good attitude, then you are fit in Indonesia. Mostly we always try to treat everyone well, eventhough we do not know each other. Hope you enjoy your trip
Indonesia is a friendly nation, except for the Chinese and Christian religions, how many temples and churches were burnt on Indonesian soil, just not exposed
@@mchlwj41 we muslims really sorry about that. About chinese both parties are at fault. One side is too arogant and the other are too jealous about moneys. And about christians. Well very sorry we cant control the extremies. We hate them too actually
@@addicz2 arrogant chinese?? I don't think that guy talking about Chinese Country. He means Tionghoa people who were born and live in Indonesia. The minority ethnic.
Racism and discrimination stem from disparity and injustice. Even in Indonesia, where there are disparities in areas such as education and healthcare, the habit of showing respect and kindness towards others has helped to unite the diverse population. The moral values held by Indonesians have played a key role in fostering a sense of togetherness. 🥰🥰
This, racism and discrimination are probably symptoms of deeper problems of the society, usually inequality, disparity, injustices, etc. Indonesia is not exactly free of racism either (especially worse during pre-reformation), but our cultural value and national historical root has make the Indonesia that's fairly tolerant you see nowadays; even with the same inequality, disparity, and injustice problems. Doesn't mean we should be lulled to this false sense of security though, eventually if the deeper problems persists, especially social inequality is not handled well, we will be well on express train to ethno-religious-social conflicts, maybe even way worse than the US now.
A lot of Indonesians have black/brown friends and guess what their nicknames are? Blacky, Keling, Ambon, and the list go on. Most of Indonesians respect other people in front of 'that people', once you're out of sight you might be the main topic of their convo. About moral value, oh idk where to start about this, try being gay or apostate, you will see what kind of moral value they hold on to.
just make them enjoy with u n u can control their mind here 🤣 make them hate each other or something, cause the data said "lowest iq in southeast asia". Government, please wake up~
Just a story, I had a colleague, he's a US citizen but originally from Africa (he migrated). He came to Indonesia for work and based in Jakarta. One day, we had a workshop in Jayapura (it's in Papua). He told me, that nobody thought he was a foreigner, even people tried to make small talk to him in Indonesian... Until he opened his mouth and replied in English.. 😄😄
Jangankan orang Afrika.. setiap suku di Papua pun memiliki ciri² fisik yang berbeda. Orang Infonesia di luar Papua pasti bingung menebak asal mereka dari suku apa atau wilayah mana.. tapi itu hal yg mudah bagi kami. So, i dont believe when you wrote that NOBODY here thought he was a foreigner.
@@tonce5508 when he said NOBODY, he meant nobody in Jakarta. Of course nobody might be an exaggeration, but most people in Jakarta has never interacted with black skin enough to tell the difference.
The funny thing is as an Indonesian myself, its not that we arent racist, some parts do have racist issues. Its just that its not that bad and we don't care due to our tradition and cultures keeping us busy. as long as you respect our lifestyle and culture we Will welcome you (and once we become close friends we can be racist torwards each other for shits and giggles)
Kadang mental orang Indonesia sudah terbiasa tidak mudah tersinggung sering kena mental sejak kecil jadinya rasisnya tidak menjadi masalah. Malah kadang menjadi candaan yang diingat ingat untuk dikenang
Nah, apalagi kalo tinggalnya di kita multietnis kayak jakarta. Itu kerasa banget kalo ngejoke antara teman pasti bawa ras. Tapi krna udah biasa, jadinya tetep ketawa bareng
8:30 Asia-Afrika Street is named after Konferensi Asia-Afrika (Afro-Asian Conference) in 1955. It sparked the independent movement across Africa. Even one of the country which had the representation in the conference did not even had a flag yet, and the committee created it. Nelson Mandela often mentioned the importance of Afro-Asian Conference for the African countries. Yet, it is way underrated since it is not the western favor. On the contrary, it shows the real face of the West in the history.
Love for the iraqi brothers and sisters I really love mesopotamian history. I watched them over and over since they play it on Indonesian local television channel back when I was a kid. Very heart breaking what they did to your country's valluable ancient relics and more over, every Iraq's civillian who receive the war damages. World has never been a fair place. But I believe we all still could do better and pray for each other.
From sabang to merauke...from malay people to our black brothers and sisters in papua and everyything in between, chinese, south asian, arabs, everyone! Unity in Diversity! We are Indonesia!
@@Ffdipedie saya suku jawa tapi saya tidak setuju dengan anda.,coba searching di google lebih dalam lagi..,nenek moyang kita dulunya adalah orang melayu dan juga dna kita udah tercampur dengan etnis lain karena perkawinan antar etnis.,jadi semisal kamu dari suku jawa.

Indonesian here. I went to Oklahoma city for a business trip and I have a hard time explaining to people there, what my race is because I've never been asked about my race my entire life. And I consider it to be rude and unprofessional. At one point someone even said to me "If you're from Asia, why don't you look yellow and your eyes are not almond shaped?" girl deadass thinks all Asians look like Chinese.
the issue in america atm is education, people have gotten more ignorant over the years and social media ismaking it worse by the bombardment of fake news and fake crimes/articles.
It doesn't matter where you're from. You'll be fine in Indonesia if you maintain a positive attitude. Even if we don't know each other, we try to treat everyone with respect. We are more drawn to someone's kindness than their physical appearance. As an Indonesian, I am thrilled that you visited and highlighted so many of the country's best features! Despite the fact that racism still exists in Indonesia.
Just share the tips of your trip : Keep respect the locals wherever you are, then they will give you hospitality... and they will keep you away, if you look down on them whatever the color of your skin
In Indonesia,we have something that called “PANCASILA” which means “5 DASAR” in Indonesia,but translated “5 Rules” or smth like that. Rule No.3 says to: “Persatuan Indonesia” which means Indonesian people needs to work together,and have a strong relationship between each other,and ends racism around us 😊
Inti nya jelasin ke bule.. bahwa Indonesia itu orang nya berbeda tapi bersatu atas nasionalisme bangsa Indonesia is fill with Different ethnics,races, tradition and beliefs but Together we are united on the basis of Indonesian nationalism Together we are stronger@@anayiuyiu4476
You will find most of them very friendly when you meet them in person. But in social media, you could use their comments as adrenaline trigger. Very energizing
I've seen so much foreign travel vlog in indonesia, especialy bandung coz i live in bandung. youre the best travel vlogger so far, the video taking, the naration, everything. youre doing great capturing bandung mate. thank you so much... PS: dont say about your skin colour too much mate, coz in indonesia we always stand with our country motto: UNITY IN DIVERSITY ☺
R8, Indonesia have multiple & various tribes, around 700 tribes lies from the west to east islands of this country, and to tell you the truth, those tribes has many kind of skin colour, from the white skin, yellow, brown until black, and we never highlight or pointed onto your skin color.
Indonesia is like most south east asian countries, a melting pot of many cultures. Not saying that there's no racism, but it's no longer a big problem here. We've been through a big racism problem in the past and we learned so much from it and we try to be better. I'm so happy you enjoyed your time in indonesia. Please come again and bring your friends with you.
Actually, I'm considering Indonesia to be a part of Northwestern Oceania, but it's reasonable to consider it an Asian country due to geopolitical factors. I don't feel I'm an Asian at all, even though I'm a Sumatran.
Here is mostly body shaming rather than racist tbf especially in high school below, but not that big deal anyway most of the time because in the end it's still banter..
Saying that there isn't any racism is an overestimation, if the racist joke between friends is not a good example then the events of 1998 is a prime example. It's just that in Indonesia,children from a very young age is educated to respect others despite their difference be it skin colour, race , religion , etc . To put it simply It is the nature of Pancasilla the ideology of Indonesia to not be racist .
No matter what your skin color, as long you can say "saya cinta Indonesia", you'll be welcome. We'll love you as long you love our country. That is Indonesia.
Sheku, we are waiting for you visiting the center of Javanese culture: Yogyakarta. It is called as a miniatur of Indonesia orang the melting pot of Indonesia, since students from 34 provinces are studying in hundreds of higher education in Yogya. This city was also the capital of Indonesia during the war against Dutch attempt to recolonize Indonesia.
Ngawur, gak ada yang nyebut yogyakarta sebagai melting pot apalagi sebagai miniatur indonesia. Suku yang berkumpul di yogyakarta, gak sebanding dengan suku yang berkumpul di Jakarta. Masih sangat jauuuh...
As an indonesian Im really happy that you visited indonesia and pointed so much all of the perfect things in indonesia! Though theres still a little racism on indonesia, theres not alot of them unlike usa, because indonesian are very friendly to almost anyone, thank you for visiting indonesia i really appriciate it! Indonesia loves you. ♥︎
Ayyo, that's hundreds percent true, Indonesia is wild not just the country also the people who livi in it. And don't forget about the warm and togetherness. Love from Banda Aceh, Aceh - Indonesia
Indonesia sebagai negara Yg terdiri dari banyak suku dan etnis,saling kompak melengkapi serta budaya,kuliner dan adab yg baik sehingga orang asing yg berada di indonesia merasa berada di dunia yg berbeda
I learn about my country through your content while I am in London. Thanks for bringing out the best of Indonesia deeply about the people kindness because that's what I missed the most now. And I learn also to make UA-cam because of you 😁 Enjoy Indonesia
in Indonesia there are thousands of ethnic groups, there are various skin colors, various languages, various regional languages / tribes... Indonesians are taught from childhood about tolerance a strong sense of brotherhood, respect, appreciation, etc. So that we are accustomed to treating other people regardless of ethnicity, race, religion. Everyone is special...
as an Indonesian, im kinda proud u like Indonesia! I rarely see any drama related to racism in Indonesia, so people like you dont need to worry much about racism at all in Indonesia! Semoga kamu ada hari yang baik! ❤ Edit: wow some ppl sayin im overproud am i getting overproud tho?
Everywhere you are, you Will be okay in Indonesia, wherever you go in Indonesia, as long as you don't do anything criminal or make a bullying then you will be safe and welcomed in a friendly manner. Indonesian people are used to welcoming guests very well

Welcome, brother.Just remember these while staying in Indonesia : 1. Most of us don't see one's appearance, but the kindness, talents that help others 2. Someone is attractive in the eyes of the right man/woman 3. Simple rules for different occasions:office worker/formal ceremonial=neat hair,neat outfit,smell nice, the rest=dress the way u see fit and normal, ur style 4. Smile. Everyone here love your smile 😊
@@Shekumanstravel believe me, your level of work is surpass Our Ministry of Culture and Science civil servant. Be proud of that. Thanks for beutiful representation.
Buat kami di Indonesia,indah nya melihat kecantikan tak dengan hal2 mentah ... Warna kulit apapun, budaya apapun, suku apapun , bahasa apapun buat kami bisa melihat semua kecantikan nya
As Indonesian, being nice and humble is like.... Normal 🤣. Mostly we enjoy our lives without disturbing the others, so just enjoy your time bro 🗿👍 We don't care about rasist and other bad thing like that. it doesn't matter what tribe or race you are, the truth is.... you are still human. and that's enough for us 🤣 Btw : I'm still learning English right now. Sorry if my typing is can't be understand
@@coolestgangsta7164 Di cianjur pernah terjadi pemurtadan secara paksa yang dibeking oleh jendral polisi.

I think, we actually don't really care about skin colors in here, Indonesia. As long as you're nice+kind person, obey the law, respect others especially the locals and the traditions, you're guaranteed to be very welcomed. Enjoy your time here! 🍻
I as Indonesian well very thank to sheku mans has done to make short original story about Indonesian people and open minded too to the another foreign or tourism to come out country Indonesia. Good job brother
Mungkin masi ada di beberapa tempat di indonesia yg masi rasis, tapi bahkan di beberapa kota kecil toleransi antar suku, ras dan agama bisa lebih baik dari yg kita kira. tapi kami sebagai bangsa yg punya beragam suku mencoba untuk saling menghargai agar semua bangsa di dunia bisa melihat indonesia dengan beragam suku dan budaya yang kita punya bisa berbaur dengan baik dan damai. Kami punya sejarah buruk soal rasisme tapi itu menjadi pelajaran berharga agar kita lebih bisa memahami antar suku ras agar kedepan nya tidak terjadi hal rasis yg bisa mengakibat kan kekerasan. Kami orang indonesia kami cinta semua orang.
We can't choose our skin color nor our origin, but still we have to respect each other no matter what your religion, your skin color or your origin, welcome to Indonesia, Peace, Love & Gaul Broooo ❤
Respect and kindness begets respect and kindness.This is the lesson I've learned through all my years traveling. There is no hiding when you are on the road. If you are in a bad mood and rude to people, as a foreigner you get it back pretty quick or at least you become self aware of your actions quickly. Its such an important lesson for life and humanity - We are all connected, constantly giving off positive or negative charges. Seems like you have connected to the positive. Awesome!
What i love the most is that not only you being happy and enjoying your time here but you also make the people smile because you gave out such beautiful positive energy.. thank you for visiting Indonesia 🇮🇩🫶🏻
Nothing to worry about when you're in Indonesia. Whether you are white, yellow, black, whatever. We treat you as human, brothers/Sisters/family. You are all very welcome to visit.
In indonesia respect is the key. if you respect us we respect you if you doing something bad or disrespect to us we do it too so be respect and kind when in indonesia we always welcome good souls. No matter what color you are
Indonesians are known to be very friendly and make friends with anyone and like to help. Cheap smile and easily blend in with the surroundings, so there is no doubt and fear even if you are a new person visiting
My front neighbors is from south africa.. 5 people 1 family.. 4 years ago they came to indonesia.. as a teacher.. they very kind people and nice neighbors.
Pepatah indonesia. Kamu sopan kami pun segan. Orang indonesia itu ramah.asal jangan menyakiti suku,agama,dan ras lainnya.sebab diindonesia banyak suku dan bahasa.mudah sensitif dengan menhina suku,agama,dan bahasa. Kami sebagai warga peribumi indonesia siap melayani siapapun yang datang keindonesia dengan sepenuh hati kami.
Yes, sometimes we too fight each other. Well you know, neighbors 😄 But, indeed we are one of the friendliest nation in the world. I LOVE your video, it's simplicity and down to earth approaches. You start from different angles and perspectives compared to other videos made by foreign UA-camrs, the geology and the people. Not just the generic records of how beautiful the views and the resorts are. You even booked Gojek by yourself and ate Durian! So, welcome to Indonesia and to the durian lovers club, Bro!
Thank you for visiting our country🇮🇩 Don't forget if you are in Indonesia to visit Nusa Penida in Bali & Malioboro in Yogyakarta, Because it does have an amazing day & night atmosphere, Perfect for relaxing👍 Don't forget to also taste Indonesian specialties, Such as Sate Madura, Rendang, Nasi Padang, Martabak Telur & Martabak Manis, Or many others..
We Indonesians have never distinguished any color, race, religion. Everyone can come to our country as long as it follows the applicable laws and also behaves well. We would be happy to welcome you anywhere in Indonesia. Hope you enjoy your time while in Indonesia❤️
Well, one thing Indonesia did is dividing population based pribumi and chinese by that b4statd Suharto, with cultural genocide that bars Chinese names, languages, and festivities. And resulted in why we Chindos having difficulties finding our surnames. Spit upon ASUharto's grave.
Jangan bilang never, kita masih jauh dari perfect dlm urusan toleransi. Apalagi soal agama dan ras. Kayaknya utk ras secara general kita udh semakin baik tapi secara agama?? Mungkin kalo yg mayoritas ga berasa ya, tp yg minoritas masih terasa. Masih banyak PR kita.
The key is keep being a good and humble person, trust me they will accept you in any ways. And don't forget to keep respect and they will respect you more Sheku. Enjoy your experience in Indonesia and stay humble! cheers...
Lmao yes, we're really nice in real life and just treat you fair based on your attitudes instead your race or religion or communities, but can't deny that we're way more judgy than other countries. Not rare we find mothers gossiping and judging the hell out of peoples' life like it's their own business, and not to mention the comments in the internet😂
Watching your video is like watching a National Geographic documentary....in lite version haha Indonesia is too large to explore in short time Maybe you will need years 😅 Thanks for sharing your moments here Stay healthy my friend...watch what you eat (we have lots of hot food here)
We have had problems with racism, in the period between 1998-2004ish there were many riots caused by ethnic/religious strife. But we are still united as a nation and learning to develop a cohesive national identity. There are still incidents of racism nowadays but not as massive, those incidents are small and still controllable. We are a country which had been independent for less than 100 years, before that we were many ethnicities and kingdoms with no unity between them. We still have a long way to go but we believe we will become more unified in the future.
In Indonesia, we have Gojek/Grab, these 2 are driving applications for people, so with it, you can order them to bring you to other place, order food, buy some stuff, and sending package, you can pay either money paper or online.
I'm just so happy everytime someone points out Indonesia's simple beauty and not just mainly focus on the negatives Also, Indonesia is being talked about 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
Hi Sheku, hope that you are enjoying your visit to Indonesia. As someone who had lived pretty much in the most conservative sided part of the US, i can totally understand what you feel. I think that with the current condition of the US, more and more Black Americans are tempted to also live and to work here as well. Since this country, which actually is as far as from the West Coast to the East Coast, is large... many more things for you to discover and to unravel ahead. My best tip will always be to taste every best local cuisine from each city. You will discover how the tastebud can be so different, even if they are in the same island. Even the soy sauce ketchup has different ingredients. Enjoy!
Ow you're absolutely right dude! In east Indonesia there is Papua island, the land where the origin of millions Papuans who have black skin. They are our family, and now you are also our brother! 🤝
Very ironical because America is the number one who always talk about human right and human right, egality and egality, etc. xD Btw, great editing Bro!!
Lol then you haven't been in the US or been paying attention we got people here that bitch about the human rights thing and we literally had a super bowl where they sang the black national anthem 😂😂.
We welcome anyone to come to our country, as long as they don't make a fuss and don't touch on issues of religion and politics, it's very sensitive here, but we don't discriminate about race and skin color
Because Indonesia is an Austronesian race where a mixture between the indigenous population (Negrito Papuan) and Asian and Indian formed a new Austronesian race with brown skin.Don't be surprised, within one ethnic group in Indonesia, there is a diverse range of physical appearances, from black-brown-white, to some who resemble Africans-Indians-Asians.
Thank you for promoting Indonesia. At least it has helped us to continue to be better. Bro Sheku's advice, Indonesians are rarely happy with bullying people, let alone racists. In principle, we take care of ourselves. Thanks bro
I remember working there in the 90s and there's one black guy in our team who raps all the time. He was a novelty and became a mini celebrity everywhere we went.
Indonesia is a big country, just visiting Bandung or Bali is only a small part of what you can get from all over Nusantara, hope you enjoy your trip here and hope you can visit other extraordinary places in Indonesia next time.
Thanks for the tips! but I have been to other cities as well lol Like the capital, Bogor and more places soon to explore. But I get you, Indonesia is massive and if I have more time I will definitely explore beyond in the near future.

this is undoubtedly a good video to watch, it has pretty good choice of songs to use it feels like i'm watching a netflix documentary about my country, hope you have a good time in Bandung which is also the city i live in, sorry for the high traffic rate, hope you could come back here and make another good video that highlight the great views and places of another Indonesian cities
I visited the Museum Geologi back in the 90's when I was in junior high school. I remember it was dark, gloomy, not much going on. Now flat screens with touch input are everywhere, and the museum looks so much interesting
Im glad you had a great time! I think its important to note that this experience isnt universal. Many Indonesian people treat foreigners with respect only for tourist money and make racist remarks behind their back. I've seen it countless times in Jakarta and Bali. Stay safe everyone👍
many tourists that come to Indonesia especially Bali just to being crazy, and do whatever they want here, in Indonesia wherever you go, if you respect the ppl and the culture, they won't being rude to you, i live in Bali, there are few times i almost beat tourists here because of their actions are so impolite, not obeying the rules. i hate to say all of this, but basically if you are honored person, you'll get honor and respect from Indonesian
Hi bro.. What happened bro? As Indonesian, I feel weird while read the title of your video.. This country doesn't recognize differences in ethnicity bro, I mean we tolerate each other in our country... just think we all are equal, respect each other's differences.. In Indonesia there are more than 300 ethnic groups, and we still consider all of them as brothers. .. If you have travel around at least 3 different big islands in Indonesia, you will feel a different atmosphere and culture.. I have been to several different islands, such as Sumatra, Java, Madura, Bali, Lombok, Sumbawa and Flores. Everything will feel like traveling to several countries, only for us as Indonesian to communicate in many regions in Indonesia there is no language barrier because there is a unified language as the national language, namely Bahasa Indonesia because it is impossible to communicate for every province who have a different language. And here there are 1300+ regional languages. Don't blame your country too bro.. and there must be strong and charismatic leadership to dig back a sense of brotherhood as a nation. Just start to spread kindness and mutual respect there will definitely be no racism, because racist actions are a manifestation of a feeling of being superior to other people who have no tolerance and have no feeling that we are all equal as humans.. Understanding each other feels Excellence itself causes division, conflict and war. Look at Indonesia like hundreds countries in a country but we can unite with our national motto "Binneka Tunggal Ika" which means "Unity in Diversity".. Enjoy learning many things from Indonesia bro and enjoy your journey too..By the way, you have excelent video editing, bro 👍. God Bless..🙏

oh believe me, we have internalized racism here. difference is people think it’s simply a ‘joke’ and nothing wrong with it. my family refers to a papuan boy ‘si item’ or ‘the black’, and they always comment about his ‘ugly’ skin. but somehow, they continue to give food and let him play around with my nephew. they really think it’s fine and they don’t hate him per se, it’s a little confusing for me.
very interesting video with well-organized storytelling, great job, it is nice to hear a genuine review of our culture that is important to enrich our society, thank you for report
We still like n enjoyings sheku content video , what ever you come from , 100% love this content , tetap sehat n vit stamina , terus dengan ide-ide kreatifnya
I can confirm, we are somewhat racist towards Chinese or in our language Tionhoa people. But we do use either your skin color or your body physique (Either skinny or fat) for joking between ourselves. (Example: Like you and me talking like we are friends and I say "So with your skin color does it make you harder to spot at night?" like that, we often use little racism but it is for fun and you can ask the same thing but don't take it too far.)
My blood is red, my bones are white, that is the meaning of the Indonesian flag, That is what unites the Indonesian people of different skin colors 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩

Yes, because Indonesians think they have black skin, even though they have tan skin, it happens because many Indonesians want to have white skin, even though they have brown skin.And they assume whatever your type as long as you are kind and friendly they will welcome you well because they are very friendly with anyone they think is one of their happiness 😊

I think exposure from an early childhood to all sprts of different cultures and races and learning to debunk the stigmas and stereotypes surrounding those cultures are important, but it's also not a one and done thing. I am Indonesian and from early childhood I grew up with all sorts of cultures and races, I'm chinese-indonesian myself but most of my friends aren't lol. What I kind of find funny is sometimes the stereotypes and stigmas surrounding different cultures kind of arise or get stronger in some people as they grow up even when they encounter all sorts of people on their daily lives
In Indonesia, racism still exists, sometimes a small form of racism is implied or hidden in a joke when we banter between friends. Our nation is not a perfect nation, but we hope we can continue to uphold our country's slogan "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika" which means "unity in diversity" because we have various races.
Thanks for the video
yes that's true and body shaming 😂. Anyway it's not as bad as the states where some people being racist for no reason
Racism is basically an act of discrimination against a race. if you mean to describe the characteristics of a certain race, it is only limited to a joke, it is not an act of racism because there is no element of discrimination there. don't get me wrong in interpreting racism so that new sensitivities emerge.
Many black people who are not angry are called "black-man" in Indonesia because they understand that it is not a element of discrimination, it's the same when we call white people "bule". in Indonesia, all of these calls do not contain elements of discrimination, they are only limited to calls to describe the characteristics of a race. Don't equate it with the US when calling the N-word, automatically it is an act of discrimination because there is a bad history of discrimination behind the call.
Racist jokes do exist in Indonesia. I'm Indian-Chinese born and raised in Indonesia. My friends always joke about Indian and Chinese people (stereotypes) and I also joke back about Javanese and Sundanese stereotypes. No one ever has hard feelings about it because we know those were jokes and we truly respect each other. In my experience, people who call on others racist have hatreds buried deep in their hearts just as much as a true racist do.
Its all fun and jokes, until they start to joke about their religion.
INDONESIA PEOPLE THANK YOU! For your warm hospitality. What’s your experience as a black or a foreigner in Indonesia?

Racism and discrimination stem from disparity and injustice. Even in Indonesia, where there are disparities in areas such as education and healthcare, the habit of showing respect and kindness towards others has helped to unite the diverse population. The moral values held by Indonesians have played a key role in fostering a sense of togetherness. 🥰🥰
This, racism and discrimination are probably symptoms of deeper problems of the society, usually inequality, disparity, injustices, etc. Indonesia is not exactly free of racism either (especially worse during pre-reformation), but our cultural value and national historical root has make the Indonesia that's fairly tolerant you see nowadays; even with the same inequality, disparity, and injustice problems.
Doesn't mean we should be lulled to this false sense of security though, eventually if the deeper problems persists, especially social inequality is not handled well, we will be well on express train to ethno-religious-social conflicts, maybe even way worse than the US now.
A lot of Indonesians have black/brown friends and guess what their nicknames are? Blacky, Keling, Ambon, and the list go on. Most of Indonesians respect other people in front of 'that people', once you're out of sight you might be the main topic of their convo. About moral value, oh idk where to start about this, try being gay or apostate, you will see what kind of moral value they hold on to.

Just a story, I had a colleague, he's a US citizen but originally from Africa (he migrated). He came to Indonesia for work and based in Jakarta. One day, we had a workshop in Jayapura (it's in Papua). He told me, that nobody thought he was a foreigner, even people tried to make small talk to him in Indonesian... Until he opened his mouth and replied in English.. 😄😄
Haha kocak :D
Ketemu yg selevel soalnya 😂
If you were born and raised in Papua, you can definitely see the physical differences between Papuans and Africans.
Jangankan orang Afrika.. setiap suku di Papua pun memiliki ciri² fisik yang berbeda. Orang Infonesia di luar Papua pasti bingung menebak asal mereka dari suku apa atau wilayah mana.. tapi itu hal yg mudah bagi kami. So, i dont believe when you wrote that NOBODY here thought he was a foreigner.
@@tonce5508 when he said NOBODY, he meant nobody in Jakarta. Of course nobody might be an exaggeration, but most people in Jakarta has never interacted with black skin enough to tell the difference.
The funny thing is as an Indonesian myself, its not that we arent racist, some parts do have racist issues. Its just that its not that bad and we don't care due to our tradition and cultures keeping us busy. as long as you respect our lifestyle and culture we Will welcome you (and once we become close friends we can be racist torwards each other for shits and giggles)
Yeah, racism in Indonesia isn't non-existent, it's just that racism in America is worse
Yea i can agree cause im too an indonesian
I agree with this lol
can't agree more, that's a main indication of "close Friends" when you can laugh at religion jokes and body shaming each other
Yeah me and my friends bring each of our own ethnicities for fun and have a good laugh about it lol

8:30 Asia-Afrika Street is named after Konferensi Asia-Afrika (Afro-Asian Conference) in 1955. It sparked the independent movement across Africa. Even one of the country which had the representation in the conference did not even had a flag yet, and the committee created it. Nelson Mandela often mentioned the importance of Afro-Asian Conference for the African countries. Yet, it is way underrated since it is not the western favor. On the contrary, it shows the real face of the West in the history.

Indonesia is like most south east asian countries, a melting pot of many cultures. Not saying that there's no racism, but it's no longer a big problem here. We've been through a big racism problem in the past and we learned so much from it and we try to be better.
I'm so happy you enjoyed your time in indonesia. Please come again and bring your friends with you.
Actually, I'm considering Indonesia to be a part of Northwestern Oceania, but it's reasonable to consider it an Asian country due to geopolitical factors.
I don't feel I'm an Asian at all, even though I'm a Sumatran.

@@hanggaraaryagunarencagutuh7072 Kinda agree with you, cause we're also linguistically closer to Hawaiian people than to most Asians
Saying that there isn't any racism is an overestimation, if the racist joke between friends is not a good example then the events of 1998 is a prime example. It's just that in Indonesia,children from a very young age is educated to respect others despite their difference be it skin colour, race , religion , etc . To put it simply It is the nature of Pancasilla the ideology of Indonesia to not be racist .

Welcome, brother.Just remember these while staying in Indonesia :
1. Most of us don't see one's appearance, but the kindness, talents that help others
2. Someone is attractive in the eyes of the right man/woman
3. Simple rules for different occasions:office worker/formal ceremonial=neat hair,neat outfit,smell nice, the rest=dress the way u see fit and normal, ur style
4. Smile. Everyone here love your smile 😊

We have had problems with racism, in the period between 1998-2004ish there were many riots caused by ethnic/religious strife. But we are still united as a nation and learning to develop a cohesive national identity. There are still incidents of racism nowadays but not as massive, those incidents are small and still controllable.
We are a country which had been independent for less than 100 years, before that we were many ethnicities and kingdoms with no unity between them. We still have a long way to go but we believe we will become more unified in the future.
In Indonesia, we have Gojek/Grab, these 2 are driving applications for people, so with it, you can order them to bring you to other place, order food, buy some stuff, and sending package, you can pay either money paper or online.

Hi Sheku, hope that you are enjoying your visit to Indonesia. As someone who had lived pretty much in the most conservative sided part of the US, i can totally understand what you feel. I think that with the current condition of the US, more and more Black Americans are tempted to also live and to work here as well. Since this country, which actually is as far as from the West Coast to the East Coast, is large... many more things for you to discover and to unravel ahead. My best tip will always be to taste every best local cuisine from each city. You will discover how the tastebud can be so different, even if they are in the same island. Even the soy sauce ketchup has different ingredients. Enjoy!
I can't stop smiling watching this video, thank you for visiting our country 🇮🇩🇮🇩

Lol then you haven't been in the US or been paying attention we got people here that bitch about the human rights thing and we literally had a super bowl where they sang the black national anthem 😂😂.
@@DawnAfternoon 🤣🤣🤣Savage
We welcome anyone to come to our country, as long as they don't make a fuss and don't touch on issues of religion and politics, it's very sensitive here, but we don't discriminate about race and skin color
Because Indonesia is an Austronesian race where a mixture between the indigenous population (Negrito Papuan) and Asian and Indian formed a new Austronesian race with brown skin.Don't be surprised, within one ethnic group in Indonesia, there is a diverse range of physical appearances, from black-brown-white, to some who resemble Africans-Indians-Asians.
Thank you for promoting Indonesia. At least it has helped us to continue to be better. Bro Sheku's advice, Indonesians are rarely happy with bullying people, let alone racists. In principle, we take care of ourselves. Thanks bro
Aku bangga jadi Indonesia, walaupun gk semaju negara lain
Bro, if you go to the eastern part of Indonesia, you will find something a little similar to what is in your mind and heart 👌
In Indonesia, everyone can be an individual, don't view too much about race but if something happens always see it as personal 🙏
Well said
I remember working there in the 90s and there's one black guy in our team who raps all the time. He was a novelty and became a mini celebrity everywhere we went.
Indonesia is a big country, just visiting Bandung or Bali is only a small part of what you can get from all over Nusantara, hope you enjoy your trip here and hope you can visit other extraordinary places in Indonesia next time.
Thanks for the tips! but I have been to other cities as well lol Like the capital, Bogor and more places soon to explore. But I get you, Indonesia is massive and if I have more time I will definitely explore beyond in the near future.
@@Shekumanstravel But Avoid Papua Region If You Want To Live And See Sunrise The Next Day Because Those Area Are Unsafe Because Of Armed Separatist Movement
@@sayfolman7752 nah. Don't avoid Papua.
Yes we have separatist problem there, but at least our combined police and armed forces are able to contain their main activity to the dense jungle region of papua.
As for the big city in the "bird head" region (like Jayapura) or tourism city like Raja Ampat are relatively safe compared to the other area.
@@sayfolman7752 it's true but untrue at the same time. Just say be careful if want to travel there, that's enough. And I don't think Papua is unsafe, I have so many friends from Papua, and they are nice people.
@@tarsisiusbagus92 Yeah, not all Papua land is dangerous, just there are several locations that are unsafe, like in the center of Papua & mountain Papua province, but besides that, Papua land has a safe location like in west Papua or east Papua
it's nice to get out sometimes to leave toxic people in the west, heal yourself.
Nice place
I am from here ,but I didn't grow up here
Love your videos.. 💖
Please explore more about Indonesia..
Thank you..
I will try my best! I enjoy explore Southeast Asia.
this is undoubtedly a good video to watch, it has pretty good choice of songs to use it feels like i'm watching a netflix documentary about my country, hope you have a good time in Bandung which is also the city i live in, sorry for the high traffic rate, hope you could come back here and make another good video that highlight the great views and places of another Indonesian cities
love your Playlist "Emo Shit" , defiinitely visiting Indonesia within a year, if not this one !!!
Much love from USA
I visited the Museum Geologi back in the 90's when I was in junior high school. I remember it was dark, gloomy, not much going on. Now flat screens with touch input are everywhere, and the museum looks so much interesting
Im glad you had a great time! I think its important to note that this experience isnt universal.
Many Indonesian people treat foreigners with respect only for tourist money and make racist remarks behind their back. I've seen it countless times in Jakarta and Bali.
Stay safe everyone👍
@rismansomary9881 Pindah donk ke luar negeri sana..
many tourists that come to Indonesia especially Bali just to being crazy, and do whatever they want here, in Indonesia wherever you go, if you respect the ppl and the culture, they won't being rude to you, i live in Bali, there are few times i almost beat tourists here because of their actions are so impolite, not obeying the rules. i hate to say all of this, but basically if you are honored person, you'll get honor and respect from Indonesian
@rismansomary9881 Ya udah segera pindah..
@Risman Somary enak kalau punya duit
@Risman Somary gatau bersyukur
Thank you for visiting Indonesia and coming to my city, Bandung. Here we don't discriminate between ethnicity, culture and skin color.
Thanks for visiting my country...
And YESS...
We are always welcome to foreign and not see them as an alien😁
Hi bro.. What happened bro? As Indonesian, I feel weird while read the title of your video.. This country doesn't recognize differences in ethnicity bro, I mean we tolerate each other in our country... just think we all are equal, respect each other's differences.. In Indonesia there are more than 300 ethnic groups, and we still consider all of them as brothers. .. If you have travel around at least 3 different big islands in Indonesia, you will feel a different atmosphere and culture.. I have been to several different islands, such as Sumatra, Java, Madura, Bali, Lombok, Sumbawa and Flores. Everything will feel like traveling to several countries, only for us as Indonesian to communicate in many regions in Indonesia there is no language barrier because there is a unified language as the national language, namely Bahasa Indonesia because it is impossible to communicate for every province who have a different language. And here there are 1300+ regional languages. Don't blame your country too bro.. and there must be strong and charismatic leadership to dig back a sense of brotherhood as a nation. Just start to spread kindness and mutual respect there will definitely be no racism, because racist actions are a manifestation of a feeling of being superior to other people who have no tolerance and have no feeling that we are all equal as humans.. Understanding each other feels Excellence itself causes division, conflict and war. Look at Indonesia like hundreds countries in a country but we can unite with our national motto "Binneka Tunggal Ika" which means "Unity in Diversity".. Enjoy learning many things from Indonesia bro and enjoy your journey too..By the way, you have excelent video editing, bro 👍. God Bless..🙏
Everyday I am learning and most of the things you mentioned got some truth. Thank you for your contribution and I will prove going forward.
Jangan biasa'in pake kata "BAHASA" blok, karena "BAHASA" itu artinya language in english, bilang aja indonesian or indonesian language.
@@donyalfatih6698 biar gampang kali orang bule taunya bahasa karena kita sering bilang "bahasa indonesia" gini aja di ributin nah elu nih 0,1% orang indonesia yg bakal ngobrak abrik ke keberagaman indonesia dasar🤦🏻♂️
@@julinaonYT ngga bro, itu dikarenakan kebiasaan orang indo nya yg selalu bilang kata "BAHASA" ketika nanya ke bule, padahal "bahasa" dlm bahasa inggris tuh "language", jd klo nanya ke bule you can speak bahasa? Si bule nya yg ada ngira nya "bahasa" itu adalah nama dr sebuah bahasa, yg padahal bukan.
Dr ketidaktahuan orang indo bahasa inggrisnya "bahasa", maka nya mereka mungkin pengen bilang you can speak indonesian language? Tp karena mereka tidak tau bahasa inggrisnya "bahasa", jd mereka bilangnya you can speak bahasa indonesia (yg harusnya indonesian language)?. Itu lah kesalahan yg di anggap sepele, malah di anggap wajar dan jd kebiasaan.
@@donyalfatih6698 yang elu bilang itu bener, tp cara penyampaian lu salah. Ga usah pake kata blak blok bs ga sih? Mau ngajarin orang berbahasa "Indonesia" yg baik tp sendirinya begitu...
Di semua negara pasti ada yang rasis , di Indonesia pun sama , namun disini masih nyaman , masih lebih banyak orang yang baik yang anti rasis.. bahkan orang Indonesia terkenal sangat ramah terhadap orang asing.. padahal tidak pernah jumpa namun tidak sungkan untuk bertukar sapa dan senyuman 😂😂
Karena image orang hitam di indonesia itu digambarkan dari pemain sepak bola hebat berkulit hitam, drogba, etoo, thiery henry dan masih banyak lagi jadi gambaran yang tertanam pada benak orang indonesia ketika melihat orang kulit hitam itu ya pemain sepak bola. Bahkan legenda sepak bola indonesia yang 0 haters juga berkulit hitam yaitu boaz salosa
oh believe me, we have internalized racism here. difference is people think it’s simply a ‘joke’ and nothing wrong with it. my family refers to a papuan boy ‘si item’ or ‘the black’, and they always comment about his ‘ugly’ skin. but somehow, they continue to give food and let him play around with my nephew. they really think it’s fine and they don’t hate him per se, it’s a little confusing for me.
very interesting video with well-organized storytelling, great job, it is nice to hear a genuine review of our culture that is important to enrich our society, thank you for report
wow, good editing, feel like watching shows on television
We still like n enjoyings sheku content video , what ever you come from , 100% love this content , tetap sehat n vit stamina , terus dengan ide-ide kreatifnya
❤respect!!
I can confirm, we are somewhat racist towards Chinese or in our language Tionhoa people. But we do use either your skin color or your body physique (Either skinny or fat) for joking between ourselves. (Example: Like you and me talking like we are friends and I say "So with your skin color does it make you harder to spot at night?" like that, we often use little racism but it is for fun and you can ask the same thing but don't take it too far.)
My blood is red, my bones are white, that is the meaning of the Indonesian flag, That is what unites the Indonesian people of different skin colors 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
In front of God... All mankind is the same an equals no different at all, thank you for visiting Indonesia my friend, God bless you all the Times 🥰💖🇲🇨🙏👍🙏

I live here and my favorite restaurant is sate pak gino. The prices are a bit expensive but worth it. You should try sate buntel.
I have had my fear share of sate but if I manage to again I will try to share that with you all.
@@Shekumanstravel seriously? Oh come on, man. Sate is one of Barrack Obama's favorite dish while he spend his childhood in Indonesia. If you're in my hometown, i'll buy it for you for free.
Sate is good.. (chiken, lamb, and beef sate) Since I don't really like peanut sauce, I always order it with kecap sambal (chilli soy sauce).
Oh bro, you should come to the GAA 3 years ago when my 16th generation of the school had a study tour there. Our people can speak English fluently to guide and accompany you! May we meet in the other place sometimes
Yes, because Indonesians think they have black skin, even though they have tan skin, it happens because many Indonesians want to have white skin, even though they have brown skin.And they assume whatever your type as long as you are kind and friendly they will welcome you well because they are very friendly with anyone they think is one of their happiness 😊
Beautiful country, beautiful people, if you have respect and be polite. Food is just enak so yes but one thing is not good sometimes, the road lol
Terima kasih Indonesia people
Well shit , .. that's exactly true the road is ugly , and it must be fixed
I feel you as Indondesian. The road is shit. But we are still developing there are rooms for improvement. Hopefully it will be better in the near future and thank you for appreciating our country ❤️🙏
I don't know about every place, Indonésia is a big country, that is why I said sometimes because for example around jakarta bogor the road is not good but I did go to sukabumi and then the road was good, in yogyakarta also in the city the road was good(no truck is one of the reasons)
@@devitaromlah2866 im Indonesian and we must feel ashamed of our roads. Theres alot of reason including corruption , and lack of "kepedulian" in Indonesia infrastructure
Totally agree! Been here 20 years, from NYC, and I'm not black, but racism ain't a problem here like the US (same goes for crime, drugs, homeless) After losing my job during coved, I rented out a room to a guy from Ghana - he loves it here - never a issue, Like the other commenter - everyone here mostly has some kind of color to their skin. Peace - viva la Indonesia!
I think exposure from an early childhood to all sprts of different cultures and races and learning to debunk the stigmas and stereotypes surrounding those cultures are important, but it's also not a one and done thing. I am Indonesian and from early childhood I grew up with all sorts of cultures and races, I'm chinese-indonesian myself but most of my friends aren't lol. What I kind of find funny is sometimes the stereotypes and stigmas surrounding different cultures kind of arise or get stronger in some people as they grow up even when they encounter all sorts of people on their daily lives
