One of my friends said to me the other day, that Indonesia is an exceptional nation. I ask him why is that.
And then he told me true stories. And I agree with him with my own conclusion, not just exceptional but a true dynamic nation. Nation on the run. Nation to grow.
Actually what my friend said was that might negative tendency that Indonesia can be seen as Nation without discipline; without commitment, especially in term of implementation of regulation.
He told me examples. In traffic lights. There is traffic light at the corner of the street, beside the traffic light there is sign board saying “belok kiri boleh langsung” (it means even it is red light you must stop except you want to to left you can go on). Other than traffic light exception, there are many exception that being accepted in Indonesia. Although most exception i have mention were somehow not good, of course there are many..
