So IDF accuses that Indonesian Hospital is built by Hamas.

“Hamas systematically built the Indonesian Hospital to disguise its underground terror infrastructure,” Hagari said.

Our Foreign Ministry pushes back.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed that the Indonesia Hospital in Gaza was built by Indonesians to provide humanitarian aid and cater to the medical needs of Palestinians.

Not good optics (to say the least) if Israel really wants a diplomatic relation with us.

MP stopped from boarding Air Canada flight as ‘his name was Mohammad’

> Commons hears how Labour’s Mohammad Yasin was taken aside at Heathrow and Toronto despite travelling on official business

Very absurd because Muhammad (or its variations) is a very common name.

My name isn't derived from Arabic but my father's and grandfather's are. I wonder how Canadian immigration would have handled them.

Translation of previous boosted Chinese toot:

"It's kinda exhausting. It’s not the first time where a new wave of online friends move to Mastodon because it's getting tough online within the Great Firewall. When they do, lots of new folks show up, but after a week, only half stick around, and after a month, hardly 10% stay.“

@geraineon KBBI to the rescue: https://kbbi.kemdikbud.go.id/entri/prihatin

It can mean concerned (I think that's the meaning in Malaysia) but it's more like sad here.

@geraineon Indonesians will use "peduli" in a political campaigns.

My interests are quite diverse. I love to read about (especially ), , and (but I seldom talk about them in social media). I also love to learn about and .

I will probably rant about Indonesian politics from time to time.
