Ask any highschooler and they won't know what 'kastanye' is. And in 10 years I think there will be a dumb video on Youtube that rants about how the Dutch copied Indonesian words heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coach is also not given a chance to go for the complete tests. I feel so sad for him now. How bad is this now? Very bad in here, I would say. People complained about how the government is not helping in providing the healthcare but they themselves can't follow official directions.

Stay safe. I clearly understand the reason why Indonesia is slow to get the test done already. Anyway just like what you say the citizens there are really not following orders and it is making things difficult with limited test kids around.
