Hi, Annette. I've been to that part of Indonesia twice and met lovely people there. It's sad that this has happened to them.

Thanks, Gari. It is a very sad situation in West Sumatra.

[guitmartiman]

I didn't understand a word of it, but I'm sure those who do will appreciate it! Well done!

[raymondcrooke]

I have included an English translation in the information box. I think all Minang people would know this song, and it is especially meaningful to them at this time. Please pray for them, Marti. Thanks for watching.
