>>256301692004 was the time when Indonesia was a messy, full of conflicts and instability, and near collapse and become a balkanized state. The economy was in slump in 1997 and stagnated for the next decade.
Back then most Indonesian were ashamed of being Indonesian. Forget dreaming about Indonesia will become prosperous, Indonesia will succumb into a civil war and get invaded was the most plausible outcome.
Things are way different now. If you think Indonesia is still a mess then you have no idea how fucked up things back then. No wonder if back then there were a lot of schizos.
