In this case: Learning English. Starting from an Indonesian word or sentence and then go to English word or sentence to memorize. It’s much more effective so far.
Of course if you’re from English speaking community (or else), you can reverse the above sequence.
It reminds me when we were trapped by rain. Humble mother invite us to stay at her house till the rain is over.
She gave us sweet, warm tea. A perfect drink in rain condition.
She is far from rich, but she show a sweet hospitality.
By the way, watching this video it reminds me to a new genre of communication, even new genre of stand up comedy perhaps. Firstly you tell a serious thing, and then the “punch” comes at the end part.
But you cannot do it on stage as a real stand up comedian, coz wasting time is not a good idea. It fits only in daily conversation, and the effect is not less hilarious than real stand up comedy. 👌😎
As a beginner, she speaks better than Felipe who actually lived in Indonesia teens of years till a few months ago.
It’s rare case for any language community (from Indonesian, Arabic, to English etc.) to find people who speaks without accent. Most people speak under influence of their own ethnic/nation’s accents.

As a Spanish girl, Maia (Bule Maia channel) was happy finding ‘European style’ in a restaurant. The waiters and waitresses there act as ‘uneducated’, even rude persons. It’s actually just an aggregate thing for entertainment purposes.

I believe waiters/waitresses in European even ain’t do such impolite things. But people tend to be delightful when finding something unusual sometimes.

And beauty standard in here are:
While they don’t consider a beauty for tanned skin, or short nose, or black eyes/hair. Some of them even wear contact lenses with blue color, or pain the hair with blondish color. Surprise, no?
Is that why there are growing number of marriages between Indonesian men with Westerner women? (Especially after internet entered to human culture).
Maybe.
Afterall, regardless the backgrounds, the universal quality of beauty is certain:
👉 GOOD CHARACTER 👌
Some foreigners say “Indonesian adults have child-like character”.
Seeing such people, even mutual Indonesians sometimes comment:
“masa kecil kurang bahagia” 👉 “(person with) unhappy childhood”.
It’s just a kidding of course. ~

Big cities/countries attract merchants with various good products.
