    malaysian have enough problems with indonesian within their borders to worry about. They are relieved that the majority of indonesians are still in indonesia.

    That’s true, Sputjam. I have a lots of friends in KL and pop up there quite frequently; there is always talk of indonesian illegals - responsible for all crime, you know- and a distinct distrust of the indonesian domestic helpers compared to filipino ones. Filipinas are left unsupervised at home but not indonesian maids - apparently, the employers are afraid of her absconding with their precious darlings.

    Indonesia steps further and further towards a marginal position politically as well as economical.
    It seems only one thing is important in Indonesia: religion.
    Not even in football (soccer) Indonesia can even really play a role in Asia, not to mention in the world :) .
    Indonesian with their dreams of better earning money surge to Malaysia, Saudi Arabia etc, etc. Many of them were and are abused and humiliated, and the Indonesian gov.
    doesn’t really have any interest to help or protect them. Many of the Indonesian representatives in other countries just bother of themselves.

    So, why pay attention to such a country???? :(
