stereotypes

Stereotype is our own idea about someone, bad or good idea. People usually think positively about themselves but negatively about other. It's because each person thinks that he/she the best among others. It would be bad for him/herself or another person. Bad for him/herself because he didn't like criticism, although if it can support him for a better life in the future. And bad for other people if he/she will impose itself on others. Even if stereotyping can make people or other groups angry then this will be dangerous, can lead to war. To avoid negative thinking about other, we must to get a better understanding of what other people are really like. Maybe with a friendship with them so we can know the ins and outs of them.

tradisional song

I think the famous traditional song in Indonesia is Apuse because the tones have used on Garuda di Dadaku song, which is the most famous song on AFF Cup. But I can't tell more about Apuse because the song is from Jayapura and use it traditional language. Because I come from Java, I just tell the most famous song of Java, it's Suwe Ora Jamu. The song is very simple and short, just like a rhyme. It song is about someone who had not met someone else, but it met only made disappointed. It become popular because if there is news, movie or something about Java on television, this song often become the backsound. I think this song is not really reflect the Indonesian culture because it is just like a rhyme, in addition Indonesia consist of many cultures, so there is no song that can be reflect Indonesian culture in any way. If there is a song that can do it,of course it's national anthem.
