Dutch Guy Parodying Indonesian Habits

It’s performed with exaggeration. But as an entertainment, it truly succeeds ~

It’s likely for Indonesians, foreigners as a comedian have more chance to be funnier even than prominent local comedians.

Due to their way of thinking, accent, original character and culture or whatever, they look funnier.

Asking “are you married?”, “how old are you?”, “where do you live?”, “do you go to college or work?”, “how much is your salary?”, “do you have children?”, sleeping anywhere, crossing the road ‘without manner’, dumping a trash anywhere, eating with hand etc.

Anyway, this Dutch guy is not purely Dutch. One of his ancestor was Indonesian.

Malaysia Better? Fine, For Indonesian YouTube’s Subscribers, Honest Opinion is Worthier to Watch

If foreigners comment entirely good things about Indonesia, sometimes Indonesian viewers wonder whether it’s just for the sake of Adsense. Not to mention: it’s kinda a bit ‘boring’.

And then they urged foreign YouTubers to comment anything as it is. It’s okay to reveal flaws happening in our country.

“To be frank, Malaysia is more beautiful than Indonesia. Indonesia is less beautiful. I’m honest. No angry okay?”

A Training That Is Not Necessarily Beneficial in All Situations

Before: No Smile Expression.

After: Cannot Stop Smiling.

There are countries in which smile to strangers is consider weird. Such person could be thought as “ODGJ” i.e. Orang Dengan Gangguan Jiwa AKA Person With Mental Problem.
