A country in southeast asia with a strong patriotic principle that flows through everything here, from the big corporations to the 7/11 stores.
Although racially and religiously diverse, Indonesians have a high tolerance towards it and almost all live peacefully in co-existance. Foreigners are treated with the best hospitality an individual Indonesian can offer (they stare at you at first, but if you smile they would smile back).
A recurring gag that happens in Indonesian culture is the overall hatred of our northern neighbor, Malaysia. Although our countries are almost the same, we have been involved in one diplomatic spat to another, mostly on their part. Threats of invasion has come across many times starting from the 1960's the most recent is when malaysia claimed some of Indonesia's cultural items as they're own. It is however, in my opinion, very far fetched and often unrealistic.
Contrary to popular belief, most of Indonesia's terrorism come's from neighboring Malaysia, there has not been a terrorist leader in Indonesia who is Indonesian. So if you want to blame anyone, go blame Malaysia.
The country however is rampant with corruption, it has improved, but is still common throughout all levels of government. Promises of death penalties are often made but never kept, usually they claim is cause by "religious" reasons.
Overall that's Indonesia for you, if you want "Truly Asia" go to Indonesia. Trust me, Malaysia is pretty much bullshit when it comes to culture.

Indonesian culture; food, babes, beaches, booze, and indomie (cost like about Rp2.500 here, about 25 cents or cheaper I think. And no it's not made in Australia...)

Get the Indonesian mug.A rich-spices-filled country with long-lasting term of food and plentiful supply of clean-drinking water. Heaven in the world, Indonesia is a truly beautiful country.
At all sides, Indonesia is just patriotic. They've lasted 3,5 centuries at a war and still have militaristic traditions until today. Schools from elementary to high still held the non-brutal Sunday ceremonies to memorize their heroes.
Very sexist. The people of Indonesia have high libidos. But that doesn't mean that they have a lot of tolerance for sex. No parents ever fuck their daughters without being locked up or dead by the masses.
Although a corrupt country, Indonesia has managed to bring at least its economy - to a growth. Over the decade there has been improvement.
A great taste in food - real spicy, but fresh!
No too strong Western currents, although some clubs have made their place into the capital of the paradise, Jakarta.
Had almost 14,000 islands in total.

Get the indonesia mug.Code for "I <3 boobs." Taken from the famous "Saturday Night Live" Celebrity Jeopardy sketch featuring Darrell Hammond as Sean Connery. His answer for Final Jeopardy was "indoors" in response to the question "Where are you right now?" Connery's wager revealed lines transforming the phrase into "I <3 boobs."
Alex Trebek (Will Ferrell): Mr. Connery, where are you right now? You wrote... Good, Lord, you wrote "indoors." That's phenomenal. Are we recording this? OK, let's look at your wager. "I heart boobs." That's beautiful. That's it for Celebrity Jeopardy. I'm going home and putting a gun in my mouth. Good day.
