in this case, i think the problem of indonesian is that we have been taught to be friendly too much. we bear in mind that friendliness is an ideal character of a person. as if it is a bad thing to dislike someone. totally stupid. i cant even remember if PMP lesson in school taught me how to dislike people in propper manner. how to hold emotions when offended or what to do when people mock.

well..i agree with the French phrase..
|A friend of every body is not your friend!|
because no one is logically loving and be loved by every body in the world. thus they are just trying to look as a nice friendly person, means they are hypocrit. Make sense, no…?

As an Indonesian, i my self just learn how to dislike people propperly here in Europe from the European.

aslmkm mas fatih..
kalau sy menangkap tentang attitude bangsa kita..
masyrakt yg cenderung saling menghargai dan menghormati, ramah thdp org lain, dan lain2 yang di bilang bnyak orang kalau org indonesia itu ramah2 (friendly, red)…
trus ditanggapi oleh salah seorang yg pseudonym emailer tadi sy jg setuju..
mnrt sy ke “familieran” tersebut adalah bentukan sosial, norma yg dijunjung tinggi tsb adalah kebenaran kolektif dr sebuah masyarakat…tdk ada standar yg pasti dlm menentukan benar dan salah pd masy itu..walopun memang sih banyak yg masih pure dgn norma yg baik..
tapi….klo sekarang…ada yg pernah sy denger “wooo , disana itu kampung preman tuh…gak ada yg berani urusan sm orang sana…”
kebenaran kolektifnya…?
