  • Indonesia may be the biggest Muslim-populated country in the world. But it's a SECULAR country. And doesn't define itself as an "Islamic State".

    Everybody's free to practise their own religion or beliefs.

  • Indonesia is country with the biggest Moslem population in the world, but not rule by Moslem Law. There is 5 religion protecting by government. Moslem, Catholic, Christian, Hindu, and Buddhist. This video contain a provocation.

  • indonesia is free country, everybody can practice anything with not doubt. no body bother anybody anything. poverty ? they get used to it. no worry. they make from steel.

  • The restoration of the Islamic caliphate, the full implementation of shariah, pursuing jihad ferociously against the western influence in Indonesia, all of these things are necessary to reverse the tide of this poverty. God have mercy on my beloved children, oh my children, oh my children who perished because of this man made poverty! Kill the ones who killed children through orchestrated poverty!

  • @franknasch Sure mate...Sorry if I missed something. As I know Indonesia is so diversity, from Animism, Atheism, Confucianism, Hindu, Buddhist, Islam, Catholic, Christian. Actually relation between one religion to the other was good, but after US and ally mixing the pleasure using religion to win their capitalism against communism in Asia 1n 1950 everything was mess up. They use religion to reach their goal...new colonialism...!!1
