2 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
“A spectacular achievement and one of the very best travel books I have read.”—Simon Winchester, Wall Street Journal Declaring independence in 1945, Indonesia said it would “work out the details of the transfer of power etc. as soon as possible.” With over 300 ethnic groups spread across over 13,500 islands, the world’s fourth most populous nation has been working on that “etc.” ever since. Author Elizabeth Pisani traveled 26,000 miles in search of the links that bind this disparate nation.

Sunday mornings were made for downy comforters, sunlight, and books.

This is Bahasa Indonesia version of the book. What an amazing experience of the author, plus connection and comprehension with socioanthropology, politics, economics, cultures, and etc... To describe what actually happens in Indonesia regarding to the "Etc". A must read for every Indonesian!
