activities which could fill the gap left by the governmental sector, and decided to do so through the
establishment of voluntary service activities
2.2. Vision

Dejavato is a Foundation registered to the Indonesian Ministry of Law and Human rights. According to
its constitution, it is composed by a board of founders, a board of directors and an advisory board (also
called board of supervisors).
2.5. Finance
The Foundation manages its own fund and takes its income from participation fees, individual donations
and corporate donations (both in money and kind).
2.6. Programs
Dejavato’s International Voluntary Service projects aim at supporting the development of young people
and local communities all over the country. Projects are developed in the following fields: education,
health care, renovation and general socio – cultural development.
2.6.1.
Group Volunteer Project (Workcamp)
A workcamp is a voluntary service project developed by a group of international volunteers
who gather for a short time (2 weeks in general) to support a local community or an
endangered natural area and to develop international dialogue and friendship. During the
camp, volunteers work, live and have fun together. Depending on the program of each project,
volunteers can join activities in different working fields such as cultural heritage, environment,
education, construction and renovation. Ideally based on the needs of the host community,
strong emphasis is put on the contact and dialogue with the local population and civil society.
2.6.2. Individual Volunteer Project
An individual voluntary service experience lasting between one and twelve months. Through
this program, volunteers can support the creation and implementation of long term community
development projects all over Indonesia. Individual volunteer usually live with Indonesian
hosting families or centers. We have several programs of individual volunteer program like
individual short term, MLTV, STePs, EVS, Civil Service.
a. Individual Short Term
An individual voluntary service experience lasting between one to four weeks
b.
MTV & STePs
A Mid Term Voluntary service project is an individual voluntary service experience lasting
between one and six months. Through this program, volunteers can support the
development of community projects all over Indonesia.
c.
European Volunteer Service (EVS)
Is a special program organized by the European Commission to send European youth
volunteers to do voluntary service in other countries. This program takes place in a period
of 6 to 9 months. The volunteers come from a European countries and aged between 18 25 years. Volunteers are usually sent a maximum of 2 persons and the activities are in
social, cultural, education and environment field.
d. Civil Service
This special program was organized by the German Government in this case the Ministry
of Cooperation and Development with ICJA Germany and Dejavato Foundation is
appointed as representative in Indonesia to host German volunteers aged 18 - 25 years to
do voluntary service in the period of 12 months. Volunteer’s activities are in social,
education and environment fields. This program is specifically hold for German citizens.
2.6.3. Indonesia Youth Volunteer Service (IYVS)
IYVS is a program for sending Indonesian young volunteers abroad. Usually we send them in a
group. Through this program the volunteers will experience in doing various voluntary works as
4
well as experiencing in learning local cultures and life. The volunteers also have mission to
introduce the unique Indonesian culture and value by showing some Indonesian performances
for the local people. This program surely will enrich the knowledge and experiences Indonesian
young people.
IYVS is not the only one program of sending volunteers abroad, but through International
Workcamp and M/LTV program, the Indonesian young people will also have opportunity to do
voluntary works abroad in various countries and fields based on your interest.
2.6.4.
Dejavato Cares & Scholarship Program
At national level Dejavato acts in order to support the education of disadvantaged youngsters
and to assist individual and families facing especially difficult situations (post disaster,
emergency, etc). To do so the Foundation allocates scholarships, distribute stationary and school
material, organize the provision of medical assistance and distribute medicines and food supplies.
The Foundation develops this assistance program through different fund-raising activities. A
percentage of all the inscription/participation fees of the Voluntary service and Cultural programs
is for example systematically dedicated to feed the Scholarship and Care Fund.
2.7. Membership
Dejavato Foundation is
 Member of CCIVS – UNESCO (Coordinating Committee for International Voluntary Service)
 Member of NVDA (Network for voluntary development in Asia);
 Member of ICYE Federation (International Cultural Youth Exchange)
 Official partner of the Alliance of European Voluntary Service Organization;
2.8. Principles of work
2.8.1. General Matter
Dejavato will do its best to respect and follow the standard procedures and principals of
work of the networks it is member of and cooperate with: the CCIVS and NVDA InterRegional Exchange procedures, the Alliance Guidelines and ICYE Guidelines. In general the
Foundation will do its best to organize projects taking profit of the experience of its director,
members and supporters. Please help us in organizing good quality projects by sending us
your comments and those of your volunteers.
-
During the project (starting from the arrival of the volunteers) Dejavato will do its best to
support the volunteers and to facilitate constructive and educational experiences. However,
our projects are organized according to Indonesian standards of living and culture and the
volunteers will need to adapt to simple living conditions and local food. In our projects, such
as in any Indonesian family, volunteers will eat rice three times a day, shower with cold
water and use local style toilets.
-
We expect the sending organisations to systematically provide the volunteers with our
documentation (workcamp program, workcamp infosheet, national profile, travel guidance
and volunteer agreement) and at least introduce International Voluntary Service
fundamental principles. We recommend holding pre-departure trainings for your
participants and introducing the basis of Intercultural learning and cultural diversity, non
violent communication, problem solving, conflict management, and active participation to a
voluntary service project. The philosophy of voluntarism is the base of our work here and
we expect your volunteer to understand, share and participate to it actively.
-
Most of our projects take place in villages or in closed contact with local Muslim
communities and institutions. Drinking alcohol is not allowed when in the hosting family, at
the project site or when volunteers are with children/students. Volunteers should be
5
informed by their sending organization before departure and are requested to read our
documents to find out more about the do’s and do not’s of Indonesian culture.
2.8.2. Principles for group project (workcamp)
All the projects presented in this brochure are international projects. We try to reach a
maximum cultural diversity and gender balance in the composition of our groups but you
might find more than 2 volunteers from the same country in the same project.
All our projects are open to volunteer who are 18 years old when the workcamp starts. We
have no maximum limit and we encourage the participation of “older” volunteers (out of
the 20-30 years old average) in order to increase the intergenerational dimension of our
projects and exchanges.
We are very open to host physically challenged volunteers but all our projects might not be
accessible for individuals in wheelchair or facing large mobility difficulties. Please contact us
way in advance in the case one of your members is interested in joining us and we will see
together if her/his stay is compatible with the conditions of the workcamps. For mentally
challenged participants, the continuous presence and assistance of a dedicated professional
tutor is required, with the same conditions, rights and duties as any other participant. The
tutor must be selected, appointed and supervised by the sending organization.
The volunteers are expected to attend the whole duration of the project and any delays in
the arrival or departure MUST be officially justified and announced in advance. The
incoming officer and the camp leader will keep the right to cancel the inscription of a
volunteer or not accept her/him on the camp for any unjustified or not announced delay
superior to 24 hours after the arrival day. In most cases, the meeting point for the
volunteers is at our office in Semarang (always check the final info sheet) or other city which
is the closest to the project site. Late arrivals may complicate the arrangement of the travel
to the project site. Dejavato likes to organize something for the volunteers to do as a group
during their free time and weekends. This will be discussed during the orientation and the
first days of the project. Depending on the activity, volunteers may need to cover their own
expenses. Please inform your participants that personal plans should be only foreseen
before or after the workcamp.
All the volunteers are required to individually subscribe a private insurance for the whole
duration of the project, covering third party liability, health care and repatriation. A proof of
the subscription, will be required at the beginning of the camp by our camp leader. No
exception will be allowed. Thanks to inform your volunteer in advance
The basic timetable on Dejavato’s camps is about 30-35 hours of work per week, generally
from Monday to Friday, but the necessities of the project can bring the volunteers to work
some more (rarely less).
The common languages of the workcamps will be English and Indonesian (bahasa). We
encourage volunteers to learn a bit of basic Indonesian before arrival (please refer to our
info sheets and info pack for more information). Low levels of English language should not
discourage motivated volunteers as, in communication, “When there’s a will, there’s a way”
In most of the projects, daily timetable and tasks, free time and global organization will be
decided in common, facilitated by the coordinator following the needs of the project, and
managed in teams. We expect on each workcamp to create a really strong team of
volunteers, for the benefit of the project and the local community.
There will always be at least one English-speaking Indonesian coordinator per camp and for
the whole duration of the project and the volunteers will have an emergency number active
24/24 – 7/7 to use in case of major problem.
Dejavato asks 2.400.000 Indonesian Rupiahs ( approx. 185 €) mostly for each workcamp
especially for the type animal conservation, Dejavato asks from IDR 2.700.000 to
IDR.3.000.000 (approx. from 204 € to 240 €). Considering the fluctuation of Euro currency
so we set the fixed rate which is 1 Euro = IDR 13.000. The extra fee covers the overall
project expenses (including allowance for the workcamp coordinator), the running costs of
6
the Foundation, the preparation of the projects and the Dejavato education and care
programs (a percentage of each fee is transferred to the Dejavato fund). The use of the
extra fee is organized as following: 35% for Dejavato running costs and administration, 5%
for Dejavato charity fund and 60% for food, accommodation, and scheduled activities for
the volunteers.
2.8.3. Principles for Individual Volunteer Program
The program is open for volunteers aged 18 or more. The projects are mainly related to
education and health care. For the educational/teaching projects a minimum intermediate
level of English (as much certified as possible) is required while for the health care projects
the Foundation requires a proof that the applicants are medical students or practitioners.
There is no age limit and Dejavato is open to host volunteers from different paths of life.
Volunteers will be supported by the local project responsible, a mentor (usually a Dejavato
volunteer who is not involved in the project activities) and Dejavato office. Regular meeting
between the volunteer and the mentor will be organized and facilitated by the Foundation.
The volunteers will have at their disposal an emergency number active 24/24 – 7/7 in case
of major problem
Projects starts at the beginning and finishes at the end of the indicated months (please
check the MLTV project list you find below). Placements are between one month to twelve
months. The meeting point for MLTV volunteers is the Dejavato office in Semarang; the
volunteers will receive detailed and complete information about the project, Indonesia and
the way to the meeting point upon confirmation of the placement and non after 4 weeks
before the beginning of the project.
Each project can involve a maximum number of two volunteer at the same time
Upon arrival volunteers will be involved in our orientation workshop, in Dejavato office. The
orientation will be dedicated to the project, Indonesia, Indonesian language, intercultural
learning and communication. Attention will be paid to the introduction to the life in a local
Indonesian family.
Most volunteers will be hosted in local Indonesian families and receive three meals per day
(rice with side vegetables and dishes). The accommodation will be simple and Indonesian
style: no hot water, traditional Indonesian bath/shower, no washing machine and
traditional Indonesian toilet. Volunteers may be required to share the bedroom with
another family member and to adapt to the daily rhythm of the family (Indonesians usually
gets up very early, between 4 and 6 o’ clock).
Drinking alcohol is not allowed and not well seen by traditional Muslim families. Smoking is
allowed only in restricted areas (depending on the hosting family) and should be avoided
when with children and scholars.
Volunteers are required to work at least 6 hours a day, 5 days a week and to help the family
with the daily chores. Holidays will be organized according to the Indonesian calendar and
volunteers will be able to plan their holidays and free time with the local project coordinator
upon arrival and during the project
The participation fee is 2.600.000 IDR (approximately 200€) per month (see below to know
what it includes or not) and the volunteers will need to pay the full participation fee
(2.600.000 IDR per the number of MLTV service) upon arrival in Indonesian currency. For the
participation fee of STePs, EVS, Welwearts and Civil Service will be informed and depend on
the sending organization that usually range between 150 euros to 400 euros per month.
Considering the fluctuation of Euro currency so we set the fixed rate which is 1 Euro = IDR
13.000
Dejavato advises volunteers to require visa to the closest Indonesian embassy. They should
ask for a social culture visit two months visa as this will allow them to extend their stay for
additional two months. Dejavato will provide an invitation letter and all the needed
information upon confirmation of the placement. If the volunteer wants to stay over 6
7
-
months to 12 months, the possible visa will be needed by approval of the immigration office
in Indonesia.
Volunteers should purchase an insurance before the beginning of the project. The insurance
should cover at least health care, third party liabilities and repatriation.
2.8.4. Contract for Participant
In order to have a better experience, it will be useful for all of us to have an agreement of
understanding. Please read carefully the following points. Please send it back before you come to
Indonesia. Please find the volunteers regulation in the attachment.
3. Indonesia
The information provided below does not pretend to be exhaustive or to give you a clear view of what
Indonesia is. This would anyway be impossible through written words. Indonesia is also its smells, colors, smiles
and citizens. If you feel like, you can always integrate this information with the one you can find in the
hundreds of guides and books that have been written about Indonesia
3.1. General Information
The Republic of Indonesia (Indonesian: Republik Indonesia), is a nation in Southeast Asia. Comprising
17,508 islands, it is the world's largest archipelagic state. With a population of over 234 million people, it
is the world's fourth most populous country and the most populous Muslim-majority nation, although
officially it is not an Islamic state.
The name Indonesia derives from the Latin Indus, meaning "India", and the Greek nesos, meaning
"island". The name dates to the 18th century, far predating the formation of independent Indonesia. In
1850, George Earl, an English ethnologist, proposed the terms Indunesians — and, his preference,
Malayunesians — for the inhabitants of the "Indian Archipelago or Malayan Archipelago". In the same
publication, a student of Earl's, James Richardson Logan, used Indonesia as a synonym for Indian
Archipelago. However, Dutch academics writing in East Indies publications were reluctant to use
Indonesia. Instead, they used the terms Malay Archipelago (Maleische Archipel); the Netherlands East
Indies (Nederlandsch Oost Indië), popularly Indië; the East (de Oost); and even Insulinde.
The Indonesian archipelago has been an important trade region since at least the seventh century, when
the Srivijaya Kingdom formed trade links with China. Indonesian history has been influenced by foreign
powers drawn to its natural resources. Under Indian influence, Hindu and Buddhist kingdoms flourished
from the early centuries CE. Muslim traders brought Islam, and European powers fought one another to
monopolize trade in the Spice Islands of Maluku during the Age of Discovery. Following three and a half
centuries of Dutch colonialism, Indonesia secured its independence after World War II. Indonesia's history
8
has since been turbulent, with challenges posed by natural disasters, corruption, separatism, a
democratization process, and periods of rapid economic change.
Across its many islands, Indonesia consists of distinct ethnic, linguistic, and religious groups. The Javanese
are the largest and politically dominant ethnic group. As a unitary state and a nation, Indonesia has
developed a shared identity defined by a national language, a majority Muslim population, and a history
of colonialism and rebellion against it. Indonesia's national motto, "Bhinneka tunggal ika" ("Unity in
Diversity" lit. "many, yet one"), articulates the diversity that shapes the country. However, sectarian
tensions and separatism have led to violent confrontations that have undermined political and economic
stability. Despite its large population and densely populated regions, Indonesia has vast areas of
wilderness that support the world's second highest level of biodiversity. The country is richly endowed
with natural resources, yet poverty is a defining feature of contemporary Indonesia.

- East Timor,
- Malaysia,

- The Indian territory of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
Area: 1,919,404 km2 (735,355 sq mi)
Capital
Jakarta (also DKI Jakarta), is the capital and largest city of Indonesia. It was formerly known as Sunda
Kalapa (397-1527), Jayakarta (1527-1619), Batavia (1619-1942), and Djakarta (1942-1972). Located on the
northwest coast of the Java Island, it has an area of 661.52 km² and an official population of 8,389,443
(2000). Jakarta currently is the eleventh largest city, fifth largest metropolitan area and ninth most
densely populated city in the world with 44,283 people per sq mile. Its metropolitan area is called
Jabodetabek and contains more than 23 million people, and is part of an even larger Jakarta-Bandung
megalopolis
Today, Jakarta is home to all government ministries, the police and military headquarters, the most
prestigious universities and schools, the best medical facilities, important international organizations, and
the greatest collections of art, museums, newspaper publishers, and television stations in the country.
Government and politics
Indonesia is a republic with a presidential system. As a unitary state, power is concentrated in the national
government. Following the resignation of President Suharto in 1998, Indonesian political and
governmental structures have undergone major reforms. Four amendments to the 1945 Constitution of
Indonesia have revamped the executive, judicial, and legislative branches. The president of Indonesia is
the head of state, commander-in-chief of the Indonesian Armed Forces, and the director of domestic
governance, policy-making, and foreign affairs. The president appoints a council of ministers, who are not
required to be elected members of the legislature. The 2004 presidential election was the first in which
the people directly elected the president and vice president. The president serves a maximum of two
consecutive five-year terms
The highest representative body at national level is the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR). Its main
functions are supporting and amending the constitution, inaugurating the president, and formalizing
broad outlines of state policy. It has the power to impeach the president. The MPR comprises two houses;
the People's Representative Council (DPR), with 550 members, and the Regional Representatives Council
9
(DPD), with 168 members. The DPR passes legislation and monitors the executive branch; party-aligned
members are elected for five-year terms by proportional representation. Reforms since 1998 have
markedly increased the DPR's role in national governance. The DPD is a new chamber for matters of
regional management

National Flag
The national flag of Indonesia, which is known as Sang Merah Putih in Indonesian, is based on the flag of
the 13th century Majapahit empire. The flag itself was introduced and hoisted in public at the Indonesian
Independence Day ceremony, on August 17, 1945. The design of the flag has remained the same ever
since. The design of the flag is simple with two equal horizontal bands, red (top) and white (bottom) with
an overall ratio of 2:3. The flag is similar to the flag of Poland and flag of Singapore, and is identical to the
flag of Monaco (except for the ratio). Red represents bravery, while white represents the spiritual
element. There is a national song titled "Merah Putih" (Red and White).

Administrative divisions
Administratively, Indonesia consists of 33 provinces, five of which have special status. Each province has
its own political legislature and governor. The provinces are subdivided into regencies (kabupaten) and
(kota), which are further subdivided into subdistricts (kecamatan), and again into village groupings (either
desa or kelurahan). Following the implementation of regional autonomy measures in 2001, the regencies
and cities have become the key administrative units, responsible for providing most government services.
The village administration level is the most influential on a citizen's daily life, and handles matters of a
village or neighborhood through an elected lurah or kepala desa (village chief).
Aceh, Jakarta, Yogyakarta, Papua, and West Papua provinces have greater legislative privileges and a
higher degree of autonomy from the central government than the other provinces. The Acehnese
government, for example, has the right to create an independent legal system; in 2003, it instituted a
form of Sharia (Islamic law). Yogyakarta was granted the status of Special Region in recognition of its
pivotal role in supporting Indonesian Republicans during the Indonesian Revolution. Papua, formerly
known as Irian Jaya, was granted special autonomy status in 2001. Jakarta is the country's special capital
region.
Geography
Indonesia consists of 17,508 islands, about 6,000 of which are inhabited. These are scattered over both
sides of the equator. The five largest islands are Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan (the Indonesian part of
Borneo), Papua (shared with New Guinea), and Sulawesi. The capital, Jakarta, is on Java and is the nation's
largest city, followed by Surabaya, Bandung, Medan, and Semarang.
Indonesia's location on the edges of the Pacific, Eurasian, and Australian tectonic plates, makes it the site
of numerous volcanoes and frequent earthquakes. Indonesia has at least 150 active volcanoes, including
Krakatoa and Tambora, both famous for their devastating eruptions in the 19th century. Recent disasters
due to seismic activity include the 2004 tsunami that killed an estimated 167,736 in northern Sumatra,
and the Yogyakarta earthquake in 2006. However, volcanic ash is a major contributor to the high
agricultural fertility that has historically sustained the high population densities of Java and Bali.
10
Demographics
The national population per 2011 around 242,325,638. Most 130 million people live on the island of Java,
the world's most populous island. Despite a fairly effective family planning program, which has been in
place since the 1960s, the population is expected to grow to around 315 million in 2035, based on the
current estimated annual growth rate of 1.25%.
Language
The official national language, Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia), is universally taught in schools, and is
spoken by nearly every Indonesian. It is the language of business, politics, national media, education, and
academia. It was originally a lingua franca for most of the region, including present-day Malaysia, and is
thus closely related to Malay. Indonesian was first promoted by nationalists in the 1920s, and declared
the official language on independence in 1945. Most Indonesians speak at least one of the several
hundred local languages (bahasa daerah), often as their first language. Of these, Javanese is the most
widely-spoken, the language of the largest ethnic group. On the other hand, Papua has 500 or more
indigenous Papuan and Austronesian languages, in a region of just 2.7 million people
Culture
Indonesia has around 300 ethnic groups, each with cultural differences developed over centuries, and
influenced by Arabic, Chinese, Malay, and European sources. Traditional Javanese and Balinese dances,
for example, contain aspects of Hindu culture and mythology, as do wayang kulit (shadow puppet)
performances. Textiles such as batik, ikat and songket are created across Indonesia in styles that vary by
region. The most dominant influences on Indonesian architecture have traditionally been Indian;
however, Chinese, Arab, and European architectural influences have been significant. The most popular
sports in Indonesia are badminton and football; Liga Indonesia is the country's premier football club
league. Traditional sports include sepak takraw, and bull racing in Madura. In areas with a history of tribal
warfare, mock fighting contests are held, such as, caci in Flores, and pasola in Sumba. Pencak Silat is an
Indonesian martial art. Sports in Indonesia are generally male-orientated and spectator sports are often
associated with illegal gambling.
Indonesian traditional music includes gamelan and keroncong. Dangdut is a popular contemporary genre
of pop music that draws influence from Arabic, Indian, and Malay folk music. The Indonesian film
industry's popularity peaked in the 1980s and dominated cinemas in Indonesia, although it declined
significantly in the early 1990s. Between 2000 and 2005, the number of Indonesian films released each
year has steadily increased.
Climate
Indonesia including Java has two monsoon seasons which determine its weather. The northwest monsoon
is the rainy season, lasting roughly from November until April. The southeast monsoon, or dry season, is
May until October. Humidity is high all year, from 70 – 100 percent. Temperatures at sea level range
between 26 – 32 C. In the mountains it can be quite a bit colder.
Time zones
Indonesia is divided into three time zones. Western Indonesia Time (Sumatra,Java,West and Centra
Kalimantan) is seven hours ahead of GMT. Centra Indonesia Time (Bali,South and East Kalimantan,
Sulawesi and East Nusa Tenggara) is eight hours ahead of GMT, and East Indonesia Time (Maluku and Irian
jaya) is nine hours ahead of GMT
Money matters
In the large cities of Java (Indonesia), credit cards and travellers checks are widely accepted, and
automatic teller machines (ATMs) are readily available. However, in rural areas cash is preferred. The
currency is Indonesian rupiah, written as Rp. Now, the exchange rate of US $ 1 is about Rp. 9.000, and
changes everyday but not too much. Paper currency is available in denominations of 100, 500, 1000,
11
5000, 10.000, 20.000, 50.000 and 100.000, while coins come in denominations of 25, 50, 100, 500, and
1000.
Please pay attention if you want to change US dollars into rupiah in Indonesian money changer or bank.
Usually the bank or money changer will charge different rate depending on the physical condition of the
US$ and series number.
If you have ugly, bad, folded or even little dirty on the money’s surface, the rate of your US$ will be lower
or even worse. This is not happen to other foreign currency (Euro, Pounds etc)
Food
Indonesian cuisine varies by region and is based on Chinese, European, Middle Eastern, and Indian
precedents. Rice is the main staple food and is served with side dishes of meat and vegetables. Spices
(notably chili), coconut milk, fish and chicken are fundamental ingredients.
The Indonesian staple food is rice, except in some community in Maluku, Timor, and Irian Islands. Some
accompanying dishes might be very spicy, containing long, fiery red or green peppers, some other
ingredients such as ginger, or coconut milk.
Food is plentiful in Java, thanks to its rich volcanic soil. Fine dining restaurants serve international and
Indonesian cuisine. The adventurous might enjoy eating in local establishments described in the Food
Chapter.
Electricity
Usually 220 volts, 50 cycles, but always check first. The plug is two-pronged round.
Communication Link
Indonesia is linked to the world by two telecommunication satellites, while International Direct Dialing
(IDD) and Home Country Direct (HCD) services are now available in all leading hotels. Overseas calls can
also be made at any state-run telephone offices (wartel abbreviation of Warung Telepon), or by magnetic
(not pin-card) phone card booths, while the phone cards are available at the wartel or bookstores.
Postal services are available in every region (kecamatan), which open daily from Monday to Saturday,
08.00 am to 02.00 pm.
The international telephone access for Indonesia is +62. The area codes, which apply to particular cities
and their surroundings regions, are as follows:
 Jakarta (021)
 Bandung (022)
 Semarang (024)
 Magelang (0293)
 Yogyakarta (0274)
 Solo/Surakarta (0271)
 Surabaya (031)
 Purwokerto (0281)
 Denpasar/Bali (0361)
Example to dial phone from abroad:
o Local phone: 70455xxx

Omit the 0 if you call from abroad. You don’t need to dial country code if you make a phone call from
inside Indonesia.
Customs
Narcotics are strictly prohibited, and stiff penalties are strictly enforced. Upon entry, two liters of alcohol
beverages, 200 cigarettes, 50 cigars or 100 grams of tabacco are allowed.
Shopping
Modern shopping malls are found in Java’s larger cities, where independent boutiques and shops also
abound. More fun, however, is shopping in the villages where the multitudes of local products are made
Accommodations
Hotels range from the ultra-luxurious, boutique to simple home stays depending on the destination.
School holidays
The school holidays are usually during the month of January, and between June until July.
Health
Use mosquito repellent and cover up at night is the best way to protect you from mosquito bites. Eating
at traditional food stalls (warung) and hawker carts (kaki lima), or trying the too spicy foods may look
exciting, but unless your body system is adjusted to the vagaries of local food preparation, they are best
avoided. Also be sure to protect yourself against sunburn and dehydration. Patent medicines are available
at numerous pharmacies (apotek), but watch the dosage and chemical ingredients, as Indonesian drugs
tend to be stronger than norm.
Tips
Giving tips is not customary
Mandi (bath) and Toilet
One thing you’ll have to learn to deal with is the Indonesian bathroom, which features a large water tank
and a plastic scooper. Kamar mandi means bathroom and mandi means to bathe or wash. In Indonesian
houses, usually there is only one bathroom and one toilet.
Indonesian toilets are basically holes in ground with footrests on either side. To flush the toilet, reach
that plastic scooper, take water from the tank and flush it away. No western style toilets!! There is also
shower, so you can use it both as your preference.
As for toilet paper, it is seldom supplied in public places, though you can easily buy your own. Indonesian
rarely use the stuff and the method is to use the left hand and copious quantities of water – again, keep
that scooper handy. Some foreigners easily adapt to this method, but many do not!.
Kamar kecil is Bahasa Indonesia for toilet, but people usually understand “way-say” (WC).
3.2. Religion in Indonesia
Religion plays a major role in life in Indonesia. It is stated in the first principle of the state ideology,
Pancasila: "belief in the one and only God". A number of different religions are practiced in Indonesia and
their collective influence on the country's political, economical and cultural life is significant. As of 2007,
the population was estimated as 234,693,997. Based on the 2000 census, the approximately 86.1% were
Muslims, 5.7% Protestant, 3% are Catholic, 1.8% Hindu, 3.4% other or unspecified .
The Indonesian Constitution states "every person shall be free to choose and to practice the religion of
his/her choice" and "guarantees all persons the freedom of worship, each according to his/her own
religion or belief". The government, however, officially only recognises six religions, namely Islam,
Protestantism, Catholicism, Hinduism, Buddhism and Confucianism.
13
State recognized religions
Islam
Indonesia is the world's most populous Muslim-majority country, with 88 percent of its citizens identifying
as Muslim. Traditionally, Muslims have been concentrated in the more populous western islands of
Indonesia such as Java and Sumatra. In less populous eastern islands, the Muslim population is
proportionally lower. Around 99 percent of Indonesian Muslims are Sunnis. The remaining two million are
Shias (over 1 per cent), who are concentrated in Aceh province.
The history of Islam in Indonesia is complex and reflects the richness and diversity of Indonesian cultures.
In the 12th century many predominantly Muslim traders from India arrived on the island of Sumatra, Java
and Kalimantan where the religion flourished between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries. The dominant
Hindu and Buddhist kingdoms of the time, such as Majapahit and Sriwijaya, were in decline and the
numerous Hindus and Buddhists mostly converted to Islam, although a smaller number, as in the notable
case of Hindus immigrating to Bali, moved off Java and Sumatra. Islam in Indonesia is in many cases less
meticulously practiced in comparison to Islam in, for example, in the Middle East region.
Christianity
The Government of Indonesia officially recognizes the two main Christian divisions in Indonesia,
Protestantism and Roman Catholicism, as two separate religions.
Protestantism
Protestantism arrived in Indonesia during the Dutch East Indies (VOC) colonisation, around the sixteenth
century. VOC policy to ban Catholicism significantly increased the percentage of Protestant believers in
Indonesia. Missionary efforts for the most part did not extend to Java or other already predominantly
Muslim areas. The religion has expanded considerably in the 20th century, marked by the arrival of
European missionaries in some parts of the country, such as Western New Guinea and Lesser Sunda
Islands. Following the 1965 coup, all non-religious people were recognised as Atheist, and hence did not
receive a balanced treatment compared to the rest of the citizens. As a result, Protestant churches
experienced a significant growth of members, partly due to the uncomfortable feeling towards the
political aspirations of Islamic parties.
Roman Catholicism
Catholicism arrived in Indonesia during the Portuguese arrival with spice trading. Many Portuguese had
the goal of spreading Roman Catholicism in Indonesia, starting with Maluku islands in 1534. Between
1546 and 1547, the pioneer Christian missionary, Francis Xavier, visited the islands and baptised several
thousand locals. As of 2006, 3% of all Indonesians are Catholics, slightly lower than the total number of
Protestants. The pracitioners mostly live in Papua and Flores.
Hinduism
Hindu culture and religion arrived in the Indonesian archipelago in the first century, later coinciding with
the arrival of Buddhism, resulting in a number of Hinduism-Buddhism empires such as Kutai, Mataram and
Majapahit. The Prambanan Temple complex was built during the era of Hindu Mataram, during the
Sanjaya dynasty. The greatest Hindu empire ever flourished in Indonesian archipelago was Majapahit
empire. The age of Hindu-Buddhist empires lasted until the sixteenth century, when the archipelago's
Islamic empires began to expand. This period, known as the Hindu-Indonesia period, lasted for sixteen full
centuries. The influence of Hinduism and classical India remain defining traits of Indonesian culture; the
Indian concept of the god-king still shapes Indonesian concepts of leadership and the use of Sanskrit in
courtly literature and adaptations of Indian mythology such as the Ramayana and Mahabharata.
Hinduism in Indonesia takes on a tone distinct from other parts of the world. For instance, Hinduism in
Indonesia, formally referred as Agama Hindu Dharma, never applied the caste system. Another example is
14
that the Hindu religious epics, the Mahabharata (Great Battle of the Descendants of Bharata) and the
Ramayana (The Travels of Rama), became enduring traditions among Indonesian believers, expressed in
shadow puppet (wayang) and dance performances. Hinduism has also formed differently in Java regions,
which were more heavily influenced by their own version of Islam, known as Islam Abangan or Islam
Kejawen.
Buddhism
Buddhism is the second oldest religion in Indonesia, arriving around the sixth century. The history of
Buddhism in Indonesia is closely related to the history of Hinduism, as a number of empires based on
Buddhist culture were established around the same period. Indonesian archipelago has witnessed the rise
and fall of powerful Buddhist empires such as Sailendra dynasty, Srivijaya and Mataram Empires. The
arrival of Buddhism was started with the trading activity that began in the early of first century on the Silk
Road between Indonesia and India. According to some Chinese source, a Chinese traveler monk on his
journey to India, has witnessed the powerful maritime empire of Srivijaya based on Sumatra. The empire
also served as a Buddhist learning center in the region. A number of historical heritages can be found in
Indonesia, including the Borobudur Temple in Yogyakarta and statues or prasasti (inscriptions) from the
earlier history of Buddhist empires.
Most Buddhists are concentrated in Jakarta, although other provinces such as Riau, North Sumatra and
West Kalimantan also have a significant number of practitioners. However, these totals are likely high,
due to the fact that practitioners of Confucianism and Taoism, which are not considered official religions
of Indonesia, referred to themselves as Buddhists on the census.
Confucianism
Confucianism originated from China mainland and brought by Chinese merchants and immigrants. It is
estimated as late as the 3rd century AD that the Chinese arrived in Nusantara archipelago. Unlike other
religions, Confucianism evolved more into loose individual practices and belief in the code of conduct,
rather than a well-organized community religion, or way of life or social movement. It was not until the
early of 1900s that Confucianists formed an organization, called Tiong Hoa Hwee Koan (THHK) in Batavia
(now Jakarta).
After the independence of Indonesia in 1945, Confucianism in Indonesia was affected by several political
turmoils and has been used for some political interests. In 1965, Sukarno issued Presidential Decree No.
1/Pn.Ps/1965, in which there be six religions embraced by the Indonesian people, including Confucianism.
Earlier in 1961, the Association of Khung Chiao Hui Indonesia (PKCHI), a Confucianist organization,
declared that Confucianism is a religion and Confucius is their prophet. Confucianism is now officially
recognized as religion in Indonesia. Chinese culture and all related Chinese-affiliated activities are now
allowed to be practiced. Chinese and non-Chinese Confucianists have since then expressed their belief in
freedom.
3.3. Indonesian customs
Indonesian customs vary from place to place, depends on ethnic groups, thus it is almost impossible for a
visitor to know and understand all customs. But, like visiting any country in the world, good manners,
courtesy and concern towards other people are essential to develop friendly relationship. Below are some
specific suggestions that might be helpful:
Indonesians are generally indirect in their approach
The implication of this characteristic in the daily life is that people tend not to talk or request something
directly. They would avoid embarrassing the other party by saying “no” at the beginning, and also avoid
embarrassing themselves by getting their request turned down by other party. Usually people will make a
request if they don’t know that they have a fairly good chance of getting a “yes” answer. This indirectness
15
however cannot be generalized. Usually, the closer the relationship is, the more straightforward one can
be.
One must consider others in the way they speak
If you talk rapidly, it is suggested that you talk slower; otherwise you might have to repeat some of the
things that have you already said. Using common words is advisable. Slang expression should be avoided,
because they might not be understood or it may create misunderstanding.
Body language and gestures are important
A picture is worth a thousand words; this is also true the case of body language. Some body language can
be so degrading that a thousand words still cannot describe the meaning. Unfortunately, some body
language, which is common in one place, can be very insulting in other places. The following are some
common body language that should not be done:
a. Crossing your legs and raising your feet high when you sit down
b. Calling a person with an index finger
c. Touching other person’s head
d. Using feet to point out something
e. Talking and standing with hands on the waist can be interpreted as arrogant
f. Using the left hand to pass anything and also to eat
The way a person dress up is important
Please tend to read you and make an impression of you through your clothes. Volunteers may dress
casually. A more formal dress such as a suit, jacket or a gown is used when attending a wedding or other
formal occasions. Indonesian long sleeved “batik” shirt is considered formal and can be used to attend
formal occasions, such as w wedding.
For teaching and formal occasion: Light clothes, not too revealing. These are not appropriate while
working in the school with children and for the small villages you will be visiting. For the school shirt and
trousers are a must. Shoulders should be covered all the times. Shorts that are cut at the knee are
acceptable only in the city but not in schools. You also should wearing shoes during teaching activities in
the classroom. Wearing sandals/slippers are considered impolite in the classroom. For Moslem schools or
orphanage, the girls are mostly recommended to cover the hair with scarf. As this is their customs that
the volunteers should respect.
One should be considerate of a religious believer
“Belief in God” is the first of five Indonesian National Principles. Indonesians are known as rather religious
people, no matter what religion a person belong to. Therefore you are advised NOT to expose yourself as
a non-believer even if you’re one.
Indonesian people are very family oriented
The family has the most important meaning for Indonesians. The relationship between each member of
the family is close, although you would seldom see ach member showing their feelings and affection
openly. Without words, everybody knows and assumes that the other members of the family also know,
that they love each other and they will always take care of each other.
Times is viewed in a rather flexible perspective
School, office, and most businesses usually function on time. The term “rubber time” describes the lack of
importance on punctuality. Indonesians do not plan too far into the future
Greetings are important in Indonesian society
The term of greeting is the same for all solution, influenced by the Islamic word “SELAMAT” (safe and
blessed). E.q: Selamat Pagi, Selamat Siang, Selamat Malam etc.
Terms of address
16
Indonesian uses tittles before names when addressing or referring people as a gesture of respect. When
addressing people who are older, respectable or of higher status, be sure to use a title, while when
addressing friends of similar age you can omit it. Some of Indonesian terms of address are:
Bapak: literally means “father” but also used for calling male adult (comparable with Mister)
Ibu: literally means “mother” but also used for calling female adult (comparable with Mrs or Madam)
Kakak, kak: literally means “older sister/brother” but also used to refer to an older person (both male or
female)
But, in Javanese, used “Mas” refer to an older brother and “Mbak” to refers older sister
Adik, dik: literally means “younger sister/brother” but also used refer to a younger person (both male and
female)

3.5. Transportation inside the country
Indonesia has a well developed transportation system. You can choose between VIP buses, trains, flights
and low cost companies.
Normally people access Indonesia through the Soekarno – Hatta International Airport in Jakarta. But all
over Indonesia there are several national airports. Below you can find the name of some Indonesian
airports that may be of interest for you (they are related to Dejavato workcamp locations):
-
Ahmad Yani Airport in Semarang City
Ngurah Rai International Airport in Bali
Adi Sucipto International Airport in Yogyakarta City
Adi Sumarmo Airport in Solo (Surakarta) City
The good thing about Indonesia is that many times you can walk to get to places. Unlike many cities in
North America (like Los Angeles) which force you to drive, you can actually walk or take public
transportation in Indonesia.
If you don't have to drive in Indonesia, don't. Indonesians drive on the left-side of the street, as oppose to
the right (correct)-side. Many streets are narrow. They are good for two cars, one in each direction, with
only a few feet or inches between the two cars. Some people also park their cars on the street (no room
for garage), making it more difficult to drive. On top of that, you have to be careful with motorcyclists,
people walking (also jaywalking) on the streets, and public transportation cars or buses which stop and
cut you in an unpredictable manner.
To drive a car or a motorcycle you need a driving license. Many countries issue International Driving
Licenses which are valid in Indonesia. Indonesia is not listed in the list of countries in which that license
can be used.
Public transportation includes:



Airplane
Trains
Buses
Taxis
"Angkutan kota" (mini busses)
"Ojek" (motorcycle).
Traditional vehicles: "becak" (a three-wheel cycle thing, the driver paddle on the back)
A "delman" or "andong" (a horse cart)
Airplane
You can enter Semarang City which lies in Central Java Province via Jakarta’s sprawling Soekarno-Hatta
International Airport which has direct flight from Jakarta to Semarang. Soekarno-Hatta International
Airport accommodates flight from most major European and Asian cities. Flights between major cities are
frequent and reliable. Flying time across the island is short. For example from Jakarta to Semarang
(Ahmad Yani International Airport) is 1 hour.
22
You can find your domestic connection flight to Semarang in Soekarno
Hatta International Airport (SHIA). There are two terminals in SHIA, first is
Terminal 1 for domestic flights only, like Batavia Air, Sriwijaya Air, Lion
Air. Then, Terminal 2 for international. You can find Garuda Airlines here.
Terminal 3 for domestic and international but only for 2 airline
companies like Mandala and Air Asia. The distance between Terminal 1
and 2 is about 500 meters. You can take free shuttle bus to move from
one airport to another. You can find yellow color bus
There are several airlines company operate their daily flight to Semarang like Mandala, Batavia Air,
Sriwijaya Air, Lion Air. You can only buy the domestic ticket in Terminal 1 and Terminal 3. You can find the
airlines company offices in the arrival gates, where you can find the ticket. The aiport tax in Jakarta is Rp.
40.000 (US$ 4) that you should pay before boarding. On the other hand if you fly back from Semarang to
Jakarta, the airport tax will be RP. 30.000 (USD 3)
The following goods may be imported into Indonesia by persons over 18 years of age without incurring
customs duty: 200 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 100g of tobacco; 1 liter of liquor; a reasonable quantity of
parfume; gifts up to a value of US$ 250 per person or US$ 1,000 per family. Cameras must be declared on
arrival. Video cameras, portable radios, tape recorders, binoculars and sport equipments may be imported
provided exported on departure. Films, tapes, CD/DVDs, records and computers software must be
screened by the censor board. There are also restrictions on fruits and animals, fish and plant products.
Prohibited items: cordless telephones, Chinese medicines or printings, pornography, and non-prescription
drugs.
Trains
The train operator in Indonesia is PT Kereta Api. There are three classes of
travel, Eksecutif (Executive), Bisnis (Business) and Ekonomi (Economy), but
first-class exists only on principal expresses. There is some air-conditioned
accommodation. Children under three travel free; children aged three to
seven pay half fare. In Sumatra, trains connect Belawan, Medan and
Tanjong Balai/Rantu Prapet (two or three trains daily) in the north, and
Palembang and Panjang (three trains daily) in the south. An extensive rail network runs throughout Java.
The modern, air-conditioned Argo Bromo Anggrek service, which is Executive class only, with
refreshments included, links Jakarta and Surabaya; it departs daily and nightly. There are also other
express services. Between Jakarta and Bandung there is a train every 1 to 2 hours, Eksecutif class (journey
time – about 3 hours) and then twice-daily trains on to Surabaya.
Trains connect big cities. Some trains are dirty and are full with passengers. At the end of "Ramadhan"
(the fasting month for Moslems), many people go back from big cities (such as Jakarta) to their villages
where they came from. At that time, people even hang outside the trains! Dangerous indeed.
Railroad tracks strecth along the length of the Java Island from Jakarta
to Surabaya using two routes: one passing through Cirebon and
Semarang, on the north cost, and another one through Bandung,
Yogyakarta and Solo City, on the southern route. Some trains have
executive classes with air conditioning and reclining seats. For
example Argo Muria Train, Argo Anggrek Train, Argo Kamandanu
Train. We recommend you to take the name trains above. Even it is
23
cheaper, we DO NOT RECOMMEND you to take business or
economy class since it is not safe, uncomfortable, many pick
pockets and take long time.
How to get Semarang City by train.
a.
From Jakarta : Soekarno Hatta International Airport
When you get out from Soekarno-Hatta Internaional Airport in
Jakarta, you can take a DAMRI Shuttle Bus (the ticket about Rp.
25.000 / US $ 2.5) to the direction to JAKARTA GAMBIR Railway
Station (see ticket sample). You can buy the ticket on DAMRI ticket
box outside of the airport’s arrival gate or just buy inside the bus
Normally it takes around 45 minutes from Jakarta airport to
Gambir station, except if there is traffic jam.
Damri Ticket Counter
This DAMRI bus from/to airport is available only from 06.00 am to
20.00 pm. After that you can take alternative way to get the Jakarta
city by taxi. We only recommend you to take BLUE BIRD Taxi (with
meter) if you arrive late. There are some taxis companies in the
airport, but usually they do not have the taxi meter and they will
charge you much expensive and not quite safe.
Damri Bus
From the station building near MONAS Monument Park (Central Jakarta) and green painted (see the
photo). Then try to find train timetable to Semarang and buy the ticket. (see how to buy the ticket).
From Jakarta to Semarang we recommend you to take the executive train below:
*
*
*
Argo Muria (ticket approx: Rp.200.000)
Argo Kamandanu (ticket approx. Rp. 200.000)
Argo Anggrek (ticket approx. Rp. 250.000)
The ticket above is normal for week days, during the weekend the price will increase.
Then you can get off on SEMARANG TAWANG Railway Station. It takes around 7-8 hours by train
from Jakarta to Semarang.
b. From Jakarta (downtown)
Just go directly from your place to Gambir Railway station, check the timetable and buy the ticket.
We recommend you to buy the ticket in advance. (see how to buy the ticket)
c.
From Bandung City to Semarang City
When you are in Bandung City, you can take a night executive train, HARINA Train that leaves daily at
20.15 pm from Bandung City Railway Station. It takes about 6 hours from Bandung to Semarang. The
ticket around Rp. 180.000 (week days)
d. From Jakarta to Yogyakarta
You may also take this alternatif train to Yogyakarta first by ARGO GEDE Train. Then take a bus to
Semarang.

Buses
Bus is the main transportation between cities. We have to warn you that some bus drivers drive like crazy
and they are reckless. You may have a heart attack riding on their buses. Buses are cheaper than trains
and they go more often. Also watch out for pick-pocket. Watch for your belonging! Don't leave them
unattended! Seriously! During busy seasons, it is difficult to get into a bus. You have to fight with the
other passengers, just to get into the bus.
Indonesia is the land of jam karet (literally ‘rubber time’), and complicated journeys involving more than a
single change should not be attempted in a day. Bus fares are relatively low; most are fixed, with a higher
price for the air-conditioned buses. There are night buses on a number of long-distance routes; prebooking is essential. Visitors should note that buses can be extremely crowded, and that drivers are
reckless.
There several bus terminals in Jakarta:
- Terminal Bus Kampung Rambutan
- Terminal Bus Lebak Bulus
- Terminal Bus Kampung Melayu
- Terminal Bus Manggarai
You can find any direction of busses to many cities both inner Java Island or to other island outside of
Java. BUT, WE DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU to take a public bus to get our project site/meeting point
considering the reasons above.
Public bus operated by private company. So, the number of them, are more than Damri Bus. You can find
these busses easily with various colors on their body like red-white, yellow-orange, blue or other colors.
They are easy to be recognized with colorful and many ornaments on their body. Usually when you pay,
you will not get ticket in return. The bus money collector just receive your money without any ticket
Taxis
Many big cities have taxis. But only in Jakarta taxis are common. In other cities, taxis are just starting to
become popular. Taxis are metered (using "argometer"), but sometimes the drivers refuse to use the
meter and ask (haggle) you for a certain amount instead. They are supposed to use the meter. If you are
not in a hurry in Jakarta, insist on the meter or get another cab. In some places (such as train station),
some taxis inside the parking area refused to use the meter. Get taxis from the street, instead. All taxis in
Jakarta have air conditioning. Otherwise, you'll get cooked inside. There are taxis that are notorious (we
suppose for legal reasons we shouldn't name their names here).
There have been rumours on robbery on taxis passengers. However, we could not confirm this rumours. It
should be safe. Although, you should always be careful. For example, always lock the doors when you use
a taxi. don't want strangers to jump into the car. Never happened to you (and hopefully never will), but
it's better be safe than sorry.
If you arrive in Jakarta Airport quite late, we recommend you to take Blue Bird Taxi. You can find this taxi
in the arrival or departure gate of the airport. If you can not find Blue Bird Taxi, you may also find other
taxis company from the taxi information desk inside the airport. Please confirm and make sure that the
taxi use meter.
When you are in Semarang and trying to get the meeting point, you may also take a taxi. You will find
some taxis companies in Semarang like KOSTI Taxi, PANDU Taxi, AIRPORT Taxi, even BLUE BIRD Taxi. It’s
very safe to take a taxi in Semarang.
26
Regulations: Speed limits are usually 30-40kph (19-25mph) on inner city streets, 60-70kph (37-43mph)on
inter-city roads and 80-100 kph (50-62mph) on highways depending on the territory. Documentation: An
International Driving Permit is required.
Angkot (Angkutan Kota)
Angkot comes from words “Angkotan Kota” (Public transport) and also usually called “Daihatsu” is a name
when people call small public transportation in yellow or orange color with usually for around 10
passengers which has certain direction. The direction usually is written on the front glass or on the body
of the cars. The cost is depends on the destination you want to go. This transportation usually provide
inner city purpose
Motorbike
This transportion is very common in Indonesia and most people have it. So no wonder if you can find
many kinds of motorbike on the street. The overseas volunteer is NOT ALLOWED to drive motorbike
because does not have Indonesian motorbike license. Besides, driving motorbike on the street in
Indonesia is quite dangerous, especially with the traffic.
But, Dejavato allows overseas volunteer to get a ride motorbike driven by Indonesian (volunteer, contact
person) as long as the driver has license and obey the traffic regulation.
You may also hear about “Ojek”, this is called for a motorbike taxi. A helmet should be worn!!
Becak (rickshaw)
Rickshaws (indonesian : becak) is pedal-powered by a rider sitting behind two passengers. Fares should be
negotiated in advance. The word rickshaw came from Asia where they were mainly used as means of
transportation for the social elite. However, in more recent times rickshaws have been outlawed in many
countries in Asia due to numerous accidents.
Andong / delman (Horse cart)
Andong or delman is a mode of traditional transportation with two, three or four vehicles pulled by horse.
The number of the horse depends on how big is the cart. Usually for a small “andong” pulled by a horse. In
the past this transportation was very useful for Battle cart, Royal Family vehicles.Today, you may also
easily found this andong/delman in many area of Indonesia, epecially in Yogyakarta City. You can find the
andong driver wears traditional Javanese cloth and traditional decoration on the andong/delman.
3.6. Basic Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian Language)
Indonesia’s national language is Bahasa Indonesia, which is almost identical to Malay, and most
Indonesians speak it just as well as their own language. Like most languages, Indonesian has a simplified
colloquial form and a more developed literary form. It’s among the easiest of all spoken languages to
learn – there are no tenses, plurals or genders and, even better, it’s easy to pronounce.
Apart from ease learning, there’s another very good reason for trying to pick up at least a handful of
Indonesian words and phrases: few people are delighted with visitors learning their language as
Indonesians. They won’t criticise you if you mangle your pronunciation or tangle your grammar and they
make you feel like you are an expert even if you only know a dozen or so words. Bargaining also seems a
whole lot easier and more natural when you do it in their language.
PRONUNCIATION
Most letters are pronounced more or less the same as their English counterparts. Nearly all the syllables
carry equal emphasis, but a good approximation is to stress the second-last syllable. The main exception
to the rule is the unstressed e in words such as besar (big), pronounced “be-sarr”
a
as in ‘father’
e
as in ‘bet’ when unstressed, although sometimes it’s
hardly pronounced at all, as in greeting selamat, which
sound like ‘slamat’ if said quickly. When stressed, e is
like the ‘a’ in ‘may’, as in becak (rickshaw), pronounced
27
i
o
u
ai
au
ua
c
g
ng
ngg
j
r
h
k
ny
‘baycha’. There is no set rule as to when e is stressed or
unstressed.
as in ‘unique’
as in ‘hot’
as in ‘put’
as in ‘thai’
as the ‘ow’ in ‘cow’
as ‘w’ when at the start of a word, eg uang (money),
pronounced ‘wong’
the one most likely to trip up English speakers; always as
the ‘ch’ in ‘chair’
as in ‘get’
as the ‘ng’ in ‘sing’
as the ‘ng’ in ‘anger’
as in ‘jet’
slightly rolled
a little stronger than the ‘h’ in ‘her’; almost silent at the
end of a word
like English ’k’, except at the end of a word when it’s like
a closing of the throat with no sound released, eg tidak
(no/not), pronounced ‘tee-da’
as the ‘ny’ in canyon

CONVERSATION & ESSENTIAL
Be polite!
Pronouns, particularly ‘you’, are rarely used in Indonesian. When speaking to an old man (or anyone old
enough to be a father), it’s common to call them bapak (father) or simply pak. Similarly, an older woman
is ibu (mother) or simply bu. Tuan is respectful term for a man, like ‘sir’. Nyonya is equivalent for a
married woman, and nona for an unmarried woman. Anda is the egalitarian form deigned to overcome
the plethora of words for the second person.
To indicate negation, tidak is used with verbs, adjectives; bukan with noun and pronouns.

3.1. Do’s and Dont’s
What you can do
- Fun is the essential ingredient of anything worth doing. Have it.
- Smile and people will like you. A smile can be used to excuse small inconveniences
- To thank you for small services and to return the smile of people you can smile and shake hands
- Tempers must be kept.
36
-
-
-
-
Take your shoes off when entering a home, a classroom or certain shops (simply have a look outside
the entrance, if lot of shoes are there, you should take yours off).
Lower your body a little bit when passing in front or between people.
Pass objects with the right hand.
Please say thank you.
Relax and take it easy, “no problems” is a word you will hear often.
Times is viewed in a rather flexible perspective. We call “rubber time”, for example if you have
appointment at 6.00 pm, perhaps they will come not exactly on time but around 6.30 pm or quarter
to 7.00 pm. Don’t be surprised!
Avoid criticism, if absolutely necessary, balance it with praise and be direct.
Dress appropriately especially during formal occasion (trousers should cover your knees; shirts
should not be sleeveless, etc).
Start to greet and smile to other people by saying “Hello” or greeting in Indonesian language. Don’t
wait until people greet you!!!
Every time you visit the people’s house, usually they will serve drink, snack or even food. They will
“push” you to eat more and more even though you are full. Don’t misunderstand about this, this is
kind of our hospitality. If you are full, just take it some and then say “Thank you, the food is good but
I’m full now”. Do not forget to smile!!
Elderly should be kept in a high place and treated with great respect.
As most of Indonesian people are Moslem, for the girl volunteers who are doing project in Moslem
school / orphans are recommended to cover the hair with scarf.
Imams (Moslem leader), priests are the most important people in the country and must be treated
with respect all the time.
Invitations are often less specific than in the west, if attendance and punctuality are important use a
card. If you specifically invite somebody to your house or going out, they will expect to eat there and
you should pay.
Adapt and respect the local cultures
What you should not do
- Do not be afraid of being yourself.
- Affection between sexes should not be displayed in public. No holding hands and kissing.
- Women do not wear revealing clothes, tank tops, short pants
- Hair and head should not be touched. If you do so by accident, excuse yourself. It’s OK if you do so
for the little kids
- Do not compare your people and country favourably with Indonesia and the Indonesians.
- Do not point at people. Neither with your hands (fingers) or – even worse – with your feet. Actually
the appropriate tool to point with is the lips!
- Keep your soles (feet) to yourself; they should be kept out of sight. Certainly no pointing at anyone.
Do not sit on the floor with your legs stretched in front of you, when in public or – even worse –
when facing a Imam or priest.
- Do not step over anyone’s foot.
- Do not walk over anybody’s outstretched legs.
- Do not tower over people. Crouch a little as you pass sitting Indonesian so as to show your respect.
- Speak gently, do not raise the voice. Do not loose your temper, especially in public; it will more than
likely get you nowhere.
- Throwing objects is bad manner.
- Do not eat when you are walking, it will be considered as impolite
- Do not interrupt when some one else talking, especially older people, wait until s/he finish the
sentences, then you can start talking.
- Not addressing / calling someone names without Mr (Bapak) or Mrs (Ibu) for older people, it will be
regarded as impolite
