These past two weeks we have focused on the history and culture of Indonesia. We have discussed the ruling ideologies, the conflict between Chinese and Indonesian citizens, and the growth of the country in each period. We specifically focused on the transition of the government from Dutch to Japanese to Indonesian. The country has had a tumultuous history in the last one hundred years. The country has endured imperialism, occupation, dictatorships, and finally democracy. It amazes me how much has happened in the country just in this short period of time. Bu Julie was able to discuss her experiences during these changes. I was amazed by what she was exposed to during the Indonesian mass killings. I find the history of Indonesia very interesting because it has been effected by several ideologies.
