DID YOU MEAN WARRIOR?
When my best friend, a famous contemporary artist was trying to find information where Wasior, one place in papua that was affected by flood, is geographically located... she got the answer from google, did you mean Warrior.
Google can't find it. And trust me if Google can't find WASIOR in Papua, many urban Indonesians that are more familiar with Justin Bieber also will not be able to find it. Hahahahaha. I dont know whether this happened becuase of misstype...or its true google cant find it
If we put this logic to the leaders here, most of them dont know which province located in the border side by side with East TImor. No wonder everytime there is election, I am wondering is this picturing reality or just JAKARTA REALITY. We also don't know what Archipelago means.. When I was in junior high school, I had to remember that there is this island named Bangka that produces nickle, there is this Martapura that produces diamond...but no map being shown...we just had to remember.
Later after Tsunami National Geographic came with special edition complete with ring of fire map that shows how many active mountains we have. And this was 2006.
Thank God I took Anthropology major. It helps but not totally helps.
