Your Indonesian Value [114]

And now let's see your score.

0 - 10, You Not Even An Asia! you are the westerner, you are not deserved to live in this god-blessed land, the land of Goddess. I suggest you should move to somewhere near Via del Corso or Kensington Garden.

11 - 22, You Are (Still) an European! I don't know why did you live here in Indonesia, the fact is you should live in your hometown in Frisian or you could move in to some European metropolis.

22 - 40, Were You Born Outside Indonesia? I think you do not live the value of any Indonesian fundamental way of life. I suggest you to read some of the "Mpu Panuluh's" and "Mpu Prapanca's", or you can study the writings of "Multatuli."

41 - 64, You Are an Indo. You are the kind of Indo, those who is half-Indonesia. You still live the value of our land, but in other way you still believe that "TIME" is better than "GATRA", "Der Zeit" is better than "Pos Kota", and "CNN" is better than "Metro TV." In abroad, you will be regarded as Indonesian, and here, you are the "bule".

65 - 100, You Are The First Grader. You started to learn how Indonesia live, how we arrange appointment, how we drive in streets, and how we register our passport, KTP, SIM, "Surat Nikah", dan Ijazah. You'd be better learn from the crowd, visit "Sederhana" or make yourself apt with "Sambel."

101 - 130, Kamu Orang Indonesia Asli. Nampaknya pengamalan-pengamalan kamu benar-benar berdasar kepada kitab-kitab terdahulu dan pesan orang tua. Teruskanlah amalan itu, dan jangan lupa bahwa kita Bangsa Indonesia adalah bangsa yang besar.

131 - 150, Kamu Seorang Suhu! Ajarkan ilmu kamu pada teman-teman anda, dan jangan lupa, jikalau anda berada di luar negeri, sebarkanlah nilai-nilai kebudayaan kita ke orang-orang. Sesungguhnya kamu itu adalah calon-calon pemimpin negeri ini suatu hari nanti.

151 ++, Anda Hang Tuah, Mpu Tantular atau Gadjah Mada. Bahkan orang Indonesia asli tidak seperti anda, wah, salut.
