What Is Up, Indonesia? (WIUI) is an independent media platform that curates Indonesian socio-politics in an accessible manner for internationally-raised Indonesian youths. Here in WIUI we use memes, jokes, and pop culture references to talk about politics to make it more approachable and less intimidating.
WIUI was first founded in August 2020 as a primer for internationally-raised Indonesian (those who go to an English-speaking school, university abroad, born/raised overseas) who were unfamiliar with the intricacies of Indonesian politics.
Many who are educated internationally are not fluent in Bahasa Indonesia, making the country’s political discourse inaccesible through the conventional news. Although English sources are available, most are not beginner-friendly. We hope to bridge this gap through WIUI.
On RU-vid, we will have discussions, deep-dives, and casual conversations about Indonesia sociopolitics with various actors and guest speakers.
Selama gw di sem. akhir kuliah, gw bnyak memeprtanyakan korelasi sosial mistis dengan sciences, dan bagus muljadi selalu bisa ngejawab itu dengan pov yang waw bgd menurut gw!! Dari gimana beliau berpikir, it's just too amazing bruh 😖✨
How about , we recreate the deffinition of gotongroyongisme again ? What do you say ? That was our founding fathers solving anyways . More than that , even our morals and cultures is way bigger than any countries we still tolerate others, the good point are maked , the act was already on the way , keep positive . What if our capability to behave is the greatest in the world , why we so insekyur about it , why we so easy to manipulate ourself , seeing people who already have a great job is more relevant than feeling enough to be like this in whole of time . Can we talk about How negara berkepulauan yang berkecukupan is ?
Wow, what a conversation! I guess my understanding of science has been pretty shaky. This is the first time I’ve even heard of falsifiability. I can't even pronounce it
Ah, so sad that a lot of people misinterpret pak Bagus' "fancy" speech as pretentious or esoteric, when it's actually kinda the opposite 😢 I support you wholeheartedly, pak. I learned a lot from you. Keep up the good work 🔥
I hope podcasts featuring English speakers discussing interesting topics in Indonesia will garner international attention. sometimes RU-vid's algorithm doesn't work well with Bahasa Indonesia titles when you search outside the country.
well the most narative that we always heard from people outside Indonesia is, Indonesia is having the potential. and they always will be. Will be 'only potential' or grow the potential? i think this also related how we sell or promote ourselves, there's lack of confident in our narrative (what I also suffer from as Indonesian, sometimes I feel timid about myself lol)..... please, we have hope but we sounds desperate clinging into that belief..... i know and belief we can, we are confident.
this intrigues me a lot especially when kak bagus mentioned about how it correlates with writing, that writing is nature way of showing you how good/sloopy your thinking is-- the ability to accurately articulate ideas, write well... this reminds me of when my friends were surprised to found out that i always got an instant reply form my lectures while they didnt even though we sent the same message at the same time. i think people are more likely to respect and show interest in us when we are good at converting our thoughts into a narrative or good description kayak selling yourself in a written form (im not sure if this relates or not but i once read in a book that description is what makes the reader a sensory partipant in the story).
nasionalisme pasca kemerdekaan itu asalnya dari mana, dek? yakni dari rasa terima kasih rakyat yang terpenuhi hak-haknya sebagai penduduk dr suatu negara. Negara sebagai sebuah fungsi perlu hadir di keseharian rakyat agar nasionalisme terbit di kesadaran rakyat. Tidak hadirnya fungsi negara di keseharian rakyat akan berdampak tidak munculnya nasionalisme. Sesederhana itu. Apakah suku-suku pedalaman, warga daerah terpencil, pelosok nan jauh di mato, rakyat endonesa secara menyeluruh, - bukan hanya sebagian kecil yg tersorot spotlight -, sudah merasakan fungsi negara di keseharian mereka? fungsi yg memudahkan hidup mereka, bukan yg justru ngeruwetin😂😂😂 Gimana bisa cinta kalau hanya menuntut mesra tanpa menunaikan hak dan kewajiban. Jargon jangan tanya apa yg negara berikan padamu blablabla itu kan cuman trik psikologis pemimpin utk mengeksploitasi yg dipimpin. Hakikat sejatinya : negara hadir untuk rakyat, dan rakyat membela keutuhan negaranya adalah demi keberlangsungan hidup rakyat itu sendiri, karena NEGARA itu sendiri adalah sebuah NARASI yg diadakan demi kehidupan rakyat itu sendiri. Maka cukup absurd ketika nasionalisme rakyat ditagih tanpa negara terlebih dahulu mensejahterakan, berkeadilan, dan memudahkan kehidupan rakyatnya (bukan justru menyulitkan).😂😂😂 "jangan ingin dicintai kalo kamu tidak bisa memberikan kebahagiaan pada orang lain" - mbah Jon 2024. Sesederhana itu.

My suggestion is u should invite iman usman from ruang guru, he is one of the key for the success of class of champion, he made nerds look cool and he made us realize that our people can look up to smart people,
Modern individuals often perceive themselves as more advanced than their ancestors, which sometimes leads to a disregard for ancient local wisdom. However, this wisdom often carries profound insights that we fail to grasp due to the superficiality of our own thinking. The mystery within this wisdom may serve as a continual source of inspiration, urging us to seek deeper understanding. It keeps me wondering-who truly were our ancestors, and what deeper knowledge did they possess that we have yet to uncover?
