Nice try, but that's not the modus operandi of the other group. Officially they rarely ban other people, but usually they used that as justification to do something directly.

Beside if we can take...

Never questioning Chinese sense of empathy. It just sometime realpolitik get in a way, especially when there's no money to be made.

This is just personal anecdote, but it color my view about how...

Simple but effective. It's appeal to minority pride so the minority itself will help to spread the myth using their own mouth.....



How about non English speaking and non EU developed country...

Simply just being ethnic Chinese have no value in China government eyes for applying visa, PR or immigrating back to China. India also don't have dual citizenship but they have Overseas Citizenship...

Don't be so proud or quick to spread that myth. If anything, please spread the truth, too many Indonesian Chinese believe that myth and use it for defense/baiting against the rest. Spreading the myth...

Obviously, if...

Back then, it doesn't matter what your religion is, as long as you have Chinese blood/parent, you face the same problem. Only recently religion is getting important in Indonesia, usually it's more...

Replace Malayans with Indo and the answer is yes, it was for all of that. With additional detail
1. sudden ban from buying land and working as trader outside big cities, basically forcing them to...

The grass is greener on the other side. Ahok just coincidence, he is a vice mayor who happens to be lucky to replace his boss/Jokowi position as mayor, because Jokowi left his post to become...

Man/woman in need will be grateful, accepting any real help, but if your preference is to help those who are demanding and good at pretending, more power to you :thumbsup2

Sometimes it's easy to spot the difference between both from their attitude and what they ask. According to what i read from local news, in Indonesia, the Rohingya, accept whatever food that they can...

Apparently Greece like austerity better than their sovereignty, even debt cut is not enough to get them out from EU.
...

For me, the most interesting part in this dispute is Philliphine. I like reading their defense forum, apparently most of them already forgot their country flip flopping attitude in the past compare...

Using strawman? I think i already give my reason, if you are not satisfied with my answer, that's a different matter.

If you want to put it that way, it's up to you. But until now i don't know...

Society, government, religion, law, norm, empathy, etc take your choice. If you want to think you deserve no better right than animal go ahead, but why forcing your belief on other people?

The previous president with his Zero...

Another thing that most people forget/ignore, unless they are already experiencing both of the world. A business owner, especially when still small/ just starting their business, seldom can have the...

How successful Thai capital control? From what i read, it's more like desperate measure for special case than norm?

They still come to Indonesia, but only half of them reach Australia, that's mean more and more of them in the Indonesia detention center now. Unrelated or not, recently there's more news about Middle...

How? Indonesia is developing country with myriad problems. Obviously they will care more about more pressing domestic business. They don't even have enough ships to stop the more numerous and bigger...

Wrong example, Indonesia also the victim of Australia refugee policy, the refuge itself usually from Middle East/South Asia. If you want to do the same thing with Australia, it's like France sending...
