Being Black in Indonesia is BETTER than in America....this is why!!!
You may have seen videos online interviewing foreigners about being Black in either Japan or South Korea but I barely see videos about being black in Indonesia. In this video, I share my experience as a Black British male who had previously lived in America and travelled extensively across Asia.
I can tell you for sure being black in Indonesia is way better than being black in America or the UK. This is my honest journey across the island of JAVA, Indonesia. The people of Indonesia are one of the most friendliest I've ever met and its street food are just amazing.
Being Black in Indonesia is BETTER than in America…BLACK man in Asia trying DURIAN 💨

In Indonesia, racism still exists, sometimes a small form of racism is implied or hidden in a joke when we banter between friends. Our nation is not a perfect nation, but we hope we can continue to uphold our country's slogan "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika" which means "unity in diversity" because we have various races, from yellow, brown skin to black skin (Melanesian race) in eastern Indonesia Thanks for the video
yes that's true and body shaming 😂. Anyway it's not as bad as the states where some people being racist for no reason
Racism is basically an act of discrimination against a race. if you mean to describe the characteristics of a certain race, it is only limited to a joke, it is not an act of racism because there is no element of discrimination there. don't get me wrong in interpreting racism so that new sensitivities emerge.
Many black people who are not angry are called "black-man" in Indonesia because they understand that it is not a element of discrimination, it's the same when we call white people "bule". in Indonesia, all of these calls do not contain elements of discrimination, they are only limited to calls to describe the characteristics of a race. Don't equate it with the US when calling the N-word, automatically it is an act of discrimination because there is a bad history of discrimination behind the call.
Racist jokes do exist in Indonesia. I'm Indian-Chinese born and raised in Indonesia. My friends always joke about Indian and Chinese people (stereotypes) and I also joke back about Javanese and Sundanese stereotypes. No one ever has hard feelings about it because we know those were jokes and we truly respect each other. In my experience, people who call on others racist have hatreds buried deep in their hearts just as much as a true racist do.
Its all fun and jokes, until they start to joke about their religion.

In Indonesia,we have something that called “PANCASILA” which means “5 DASAR” in Indonesia,but translated “5 Rules” or smth like that. Rule No.3 says to: “Persatuan Indonesia” which means Indonesian people needs to work together,and have a strong relationship between each other,and ends racism around us 😊

Racism and discrimination stem from disparity and injustice. Even in Indonesia, where there are disparities in areas such as education and healthcare, the habit of showing respect and kindness towards others has helped to unite the diverse population. The moral values held by Indonesians have played a key role in fostering a sense of togetherness. 🥰🥰
This, racism and discrimination are probably symptoms of deeper problems of the society, usually inequality, disparity, injustices, etc. Indonesia is not exactly free of racism either (especially worse during pre-reformation), but our cultural value and national historical root has make the Indonesia that's fairly tolerant you see nowadays; even with the same inequality, disparity, and injustice problems. Doesn't mean we should be lulled to this false sense of security though, eventually if the deeper problems persists, especially social inequality is not handled well, we will be well on express train to ethno-religious-social conflicts, maybe even way worse than the US now.
A lot of Indonesians have black/brown friends and guess what their nicknames are? Blacky, Keling, Ambon, and the list go on. Most of Indonesians respect other people in front of 'that people', once you're out of sight you might be the main topic of their convo. About moral value, oh idk where to start about this, try being gay or apostate, you will see what kind of moral value they hold on to.
just make them enjoy with u n u can control their mind here 🤣 make them hate each other or something, cause the data said "lowest iq in southeast asia". Government, please wake up~
@@elang1st IQ and EQ, both are very important
@@prasw428 yeah, cause the great people left the country, even changing nationality
The funny thing is as an Indonesian myself, its not that we arent racist, some parts do have racist issues. Its just that its not that bad and we don't care due to our tradition and cultures keeping us busy. as long as you respect our lifestyle and culture we Will welcome you (and once we become close friends we can be racist torwards each other for shits and giggles)
Yeah, racism in Indonesia isn't non-existent, it's just that racism in America is worse
Yea i can agree cause im too an indonesian
I agree with this lol
can't agree more, that's a main indication of "close Friends" when you can laugh at religion jokes and body shaming each other
Yeah me and my friends bring each of our own ethnicities for fun and have a good laugh about it lol
We can't choose our skin color nor our origin, but still we have to respect each other no matter what your religion, your skin color or your origin, welcome to Indonesia, Peace, Love & Gaul Broooo ❤

Indonesia sebagai negara Yg terdiri dari banyak suku dan etnis,saling kompak melengkapi serta budaya,kuliner dan adab yg baik sehingga orang asing yg berada di indonesia merasa berada di dunia yg berbeda
Just a story, I had a colleague, he's a US citizen but originally from Africa (he migrated). He came to Indonesia for work and based in Jakarta. One day, we had a workshop in Jayapura (it's in Papua). He told me, that nobody thought he was a foreigner, even people tried to make small talk to him in Indonesian... Until he opened his mouth and replied in English.. 😄😄
Haha kocak :D
Ketemu yg selevel soalnya 😂
If you were born and raised in Papua, you can definitely see the physical differences between Papuans and Africans.
Jangankan orang Afrika.. setiap suku di Papua pun memiliki ciri² fisik yang berbeda. Orang Infonesia di luar Papua pasti bingung menebak asal mereka dari suku apa atau wilayah mana.. tapi itu hal yg mudah bagi kami. So, i dont believe when you wrote that NOBODY here thought he was a foreigner.
@@tonce5508 when he said NOBODY, he meant nobody in Jakarta. Of course nobody might be an exaggeration, but most people in Jakarta has never interacted with black skin enough to tell the difference.
8:30 Asia-Afrika Street is named after Konferensi Asia-Afrika (Afro-Asian Conference) in 1955. It sparked the independent movement across Africa. Even one of the country which had the representation in the conference did not even had a flag yet, and the committee created it. Nelson Mandela often mentioned the importance of Afro-Asian Conference for the African countries. Yet, it is way underrated since it is not the western favor. On the contrary, it shows the real face of the West in the history.
Thanks for the history reminder!!! 👍🏾

Indonesian here. I went to Oklahoma city for a business trip and I have a hard time explaining to people there, what my race is because I've never been asked about my race my entire life. And I consider it to be rude and unprofessional. At one point someone even said to me "If you're from Asia, why don't you look yellow and your eyes are not almond shaped?" girl deadass thinks all Asians look like Chinese.
That's insane.
Fr mate, my friend from america told me how i did not look like a chinese at all. Bro legit thought all asian have small eyes 🗿

Indonesia is like most south east asian countries, a melting pot of many cultures. Not saying that there's no racism, but it's no longer a big problem here. We've been through a big racism problem in the past and we learned so much from it and we try to be better. I'm so happy you enjoyed your time in indonesia. Please come again and bring your friends with you.
Actually, I'm considering Indonesia to be a part of Northwestern Oceania, but it's reasonable to consider it an Asian country due to geopolitical factors. I don't feel I'm an Asian at all, even though I'm a Sumatran.
There are racism, but the racism apply to everybody, so it cancels out automatically
Here is mostly body shaming rather than racist tbf especially in high school below, but not that big deal anyway most of the time because in the end it's still banter..
@@hanggaraaryagunarencagutuh7072 Kinda agree with you, cause we're also linguistically closer to Hawaiian people than to most Asians
Saying that there isn't any racism is an overestimation, if the racist joke between friends is not a good example then the events of 1998 is a prime example. It's just that in Indonesia,children from a very young age is educated to respect others despite their difference be it skin colour, race , religion , etc . To put it simply It is the nature of Pancasilla the ideology of Indonesia to not be racist .
Indian here.... When countries have so much diversity and they learn to live together, outsider don't have much problem, despite various issues. I have Indonesian friends and they are all very nice.

Yes, because Indonesians think they have black skin, even though they have tan skin, it happens because many Indonesians want to have white skin, even though they have brown skin.And they assume whatever your type as long as you are kind and friendly they will welcome you well because they are very friendly with anyone they think is one of their happiness 😊

Welcome, brother.Just remember these while staying in Indonesia : 1. Most of us don't see one's appearance, but the kindness, talents that help others 2. Someone is attractive in the eyes of the right man/woman 3. Simple rules for different occasions:office worker/formal ceremonial=neat hair,neat outfit,smell nice, the rest=dress the way u see fit and normal, ur style 4. Smile. Everyone here love your smile 😊
nomor 1 tidak berlaku disini, even lowongan pekerjaan pun nyarinya yg attractive dan cakep kelihatan sekali diskriminasinya
I think exposure from an early childhood to all sprts of different cultures and races and learning to debunk the stigmas and stereotypes surrounding those cultures are important, but it's also not a one and done thing. I am Indonesian and from early childhood I grew up with all sorts of cultures and races, I'm chinese-indonesian myself but most of my friends aren't lol. What I kind of find funny is sometimes the stereotypes and stigmas surrounding different cultures kind of arise or get stronger in some people as they grow up even when they encounter all sorts of people on their daily lives
Glad you are comfortable in Indonesia. Our country is used to many differences, since childhood we have been taught to respect each other at school, from kindergarten our teachers also teach tolerance, don't hesitate to return to Indonesia.
in Indonesia there are thousands of ethnic groups, there are various skin colors, various languages, various regional languages / tribes... Indonesians are taught from childhood about tolerance a strong sense of brotherhood, respect, appreciation, etc. So that we are accustomed to treating other people regardless of ethnicity, race, religion. Everyone is special...
Everywhere you are, you Will be okay in Indonesia, wherever you go in Indonesia, as long as you don't do anything criminal or make a bullying then you will be safe and welcomed in a friendly manner. Indonesian people are used to welcoming guests very well

Respect and kindness begets respect and kindness.This is the lesson I've learned through all my years traveling. There is no hiding when you are on the road. If you are in a bad mood and rude to people, as a foreigner you get it back pretty quick or at least you become self aware of your actions quickly. Its such an important lesson for life and humanity - We are all connected, constantly giving off positive or negative charges. Seems like you have connected to the positive. Awesome!

Bandung is a chill place, Lembang is really nice, and it's close to bandung to go to kawah putih (white crater) which is a must see. The floating Market and all the other places in Lembang are super well designed, glad you enjoyed your visit, Indonesia is pretty much a chill experience for anyone of different faiths and colors, and hopefully it always remains that way.

Thank you for the very warm introduction of a part of Indonesia. It was good that you didn't experience the darker side of the country.
Yes, sometimes we too fight each other. Well you know, neighbors 😄 But, indeed we are one of the friendliest nation in the world. I LOVE your video, it's simplicity and down to earth approaches. You start from different angles and perspectives compared to other videos made by foreign KZheadrs, the geology and the people. Not just the generic records of how beautiful the views and the resorts are. You even booked Gojek by yourself and ate Durian! So, welcome to Indonesia and to the durian lovers club, Bro!
Can you stop cutting ceramic tiles on a Sunday morning!!?? Something like that? Lmao
Friendliest nation in the world? Sorry sir but not on social media 🤣

welcome friends, I hope you enjoy your time in Indonesia
I'm glad you like Indonesia, we will look forward to welcoming you again in Indonesia As long as you behave well, if you go to Indonesia again.
I am glad to see you had a great time. Having the chance to explore more than 1 city in Indonesia is the best way to discover the epic archipelago. We are lucky to still have a strong community spirit here which led to your unfogettable experience. I hope you will have the opportunity to visit other parts one day. I would love to show you around the next time you are in this neck of the woods.
Hi Sheku, hope that you are enjoying your visit to Indonesia. As someone who had lived pretty much in the most conservative sided part of the US, i can totally understand what you feel. I think that with the current condition of the US, more and more Black Americans are tempted to also live and to work here as well. Since this country, which actually is as far as from the West Coast to the East Coast, is large... many more things for you to discover and to unravel ahead. My best tip will always be to taste every best local cuisine from each city. You will discover how the tastebud can be so different, even if they are in the same island. Even the soy sauce ketchup has different ingredients. Enjoy!
You have skills! Very cool.
We are a country that is famous for its tolerance, peace among religious communities and that is inherent in our souls and bodies. We have many different tribes and languages in each region. So we think differences don't matter, what only means is coming together to be better. Peaceful greetings from Borneo island, Indonesia ❤️
Watching your video is like watching a National Geographic documentary....in lite version haha Indonesia is too large to explore in short time Maybe you will need years 😅 Thanks for sharing your moments here Stay healthy my friend...watch what you eat (we have lots of hot food here)
Selamat sehat sehat selalu Amin
The key is keep being a good and humble person, trust me they will accept you in any ways. And don't forget to keep respect and they will respect you more Sheku. Enjoy your experience in Indonesia and stay humble! cheers...
gives this guy a Oscar because he's still good at video
I'm just so happy everytime someone points out Indonesia's simple beauty and not just mainly focus on the negatives Also, Indonesia is being talked about 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
ADA INDONESIA CUY!!! "insert fake mrbeast face"
No matter what race you are, no matter what age you are, no matter what you are, you are gonna have memories in your heart that lasts forever, and btw i also have went to museum geologi i wish i could meet you😂 - LOVE FROM INDONESIA
I love Indonesian 🇮🇩, im from Bandung
Oh sheku...you really know how to have fun by yourself aren't you😆 such a happy person😁 I'm glad you can enjoy your journey in Indonesia😊
If only I could, I would've given multiple likes to your vid, it is so well prepared and well made.
Because we called our older people bapak/ibu (father/mother) and abang/adik (brother and sister) its a common thing to treat stranger as our family. So you always shows respect no matter what colour your skins. I met alot black skinned indonesian from papua, ntt and timor2. And believe it or not they are the best human being i ever met. ❤
Keren banget videonya bro..👍🏻

I'm glad that Indonesia is getting the recognition it deserves Terima kasih guys😄
