Isn't this an interesting, albeit somewhat depressing, comparison on the way society views men and women.

Wiki pages can be useful if you want to look smart in front of your friends, but sometimes there’s just not enough hours in the day to read what you want. Got a minute and a half to spare? Spend it on our overview of Indonesia. How many souls reside in the country? Why does our flag look like Monaco’s? Why do our history books that are published before 1998 look different than everyone else’s? You know, the basic stuff..

Head to head: Military Power, Indonesia and Malaysia

Here we compare the military spending of two neighboring countries with plenty of tense history together. Are we doing it to incite a flamewar? Are we doing it as social commentary that a certain country should invest more in pressing social and economic issues? Are we doing it because it's interesting? You'll never know (until you ask us).

For (exactly) a dollar more.

Let's say you're stuck in Indonesia and you only had one buck, what is that worth there? Let's also say for efficiency's sake that a dollar is equal to Rp 11,500. Let's also say that you can't phone home and ask for more money.

People don't cheat when reminded on a code of honor, but do we cheat after reading a complex code of honor?

What happens when people are given chunks of text that tell them what to do? Will they try to find a loophole or will they abide? Research conducted by our very own Rizalul Durrun Pasundani shows that people are more likely to behave unethically the more complicated the codes of conducts they are given than those who are given simple codes to follow. So simplicity is key in a lot of aspects after all!

Mother of tongues! An adventure through languages in Indonesia.

Did you know there are 719 languages in Indonesia? Did you know the official language isn't even the most widespread spoken language there? Did you know anus isn't just a body part, it's also a language from East Papua? Yeah, me neither.

Highest achievement of Indonesia's football team.

So apparently before we had a streak of nothing but mediocrity, the Indonesian national football team had a lot of things to boast about under its belt. Sure the World Cup is over, but remember when Indonesia qualified and got to the quarter finals in '56? I wasn't even born then!

What does it cost to go to Indonesia this summer?

We compiled the lowest prices of plane tickets from major cities with high traffic to Indonesia. All the prices were found on Kayak.com. We're in no way affiliated with Kayak... but we're not completely closed to the idea.
