Images of Indonesia (Final Draft)

 The aim of this report is to present what is popular in Indonesia. I interviewed five of my friends directly in class. The questions concerned music, food, and public transportation.

Music    :                                               

Dangdut is one of Indonesian traditional song.  And I interviewed my friends, what do they think about Indonesian favorite music, and all of it says that Indonesian people more likely a western songs like rock, pop, etc.

Food      :                                                     

 There are many traditional food that comes from many province in Indonesia like tumpeng, rendang, pecel, etc. And I interviewed my friends, what do they think about Indonesian favourite food and 4 of 5 people said that Indonesian like his country dish. 3 of 5 people said they like tumpeng, and 2 of 5 people said they like rendang.

Public Transport:                                      

it is an important thing for some people that does not own a car, and in Indonesia there are many public transportation like Bus, Bajaj, Becak, etc. And I interviewed my friends, what do they think about Indonesian favourite transportation and all of it choose own car but if they has to pick a public transportation. 2 of 5 people choose Bus, and 2 of 5 people too choose Taxi and the other is Angkot.

       The surprising fact is most of Indonesian people like their country food and that was good news that we should proud of our traditional food, and we have to like our public transportation and our music, cause it is our culture that we have to keep the existence.

    This report aims to tell Indonesian teenagers' point of view based on their real lives. I interviewed ten of my classmates by phone. The question concerned Music, Food, and Movie

Music

     Many people believe that music can change your mood. As a matter of fact almost everyone i interviewed feel relaxed, happy, and peaceful whenever the music is on. They listen to the music when they study, about to sleep, or simply bored. It's a shame that none of them can play indonesian traditional instrument. A quarter of them like to play piano, another quarter can play guitar, and the rest like to sing

Movie
     75% of the teenagers prefer to watch movies in cinemas rather than in DVDs. No wonder, because cinemas have better sound systems and huge screens. Half of them watch movies in every genre, and another half can only watch comedy, thriller, and drama. Mostly, the people i had interviewed chose western films over indonesian. They think western films have greater imagination and out of the box but they have faith that indonesian films will be better without pornographic.

Food
     In average, people i asked eat 3 times a day. Those who eat twice a day, either skip breakfast, or dinner. They admit that breakfast is an important meal of the day. The reason they skip breakfast because usually they don't have time to eat. 75% of them chose the taste over the healthiness. As i interviewed they all have different answer in Indonesian traditional food, some said Siomay, Beef rendang, Mie Aceh, etc. One thing they have in common is that they think indonesian foods have unique taste.

     This report concludes that every person have their own opinions and it's okay to be different. Some prefer to listen classical music rather than rock. Some like western foods than indonesian traditional foods. However, differences bring us closer, right?
