Indonesian Customs and Habits
1.
Inappropriate
Time | | Culture Clock Rubber
• Positive: There is nothing positive from these
cultures
• Negative: Habits of Indonesian people who are not
on time will only make the person in a hurry to do something. example: if a
person is working at 08.00, then she had left home at 07.00, especially if the
distance to distant workplaces and roads are jammed situation, it causes the
person in a hurry and running to be able to get to work so as not to be late
more old. It also creates resentment for someone who is on time. example: if
there are two people who make an agreement to meet, and one of those is late,
it will cause annoyance to others who have been waiting a long time.
2.
Corruption,
Collusion, Nepotism
• Positive: nothing positive from these cultures
• Negative: culture of corruption is harming
themselves and others. Taking the rights of others will make one's life becomes
unsettled. But unfortunately in fact corruption has become a culture in
Indonesia or to say corruption is talkative culture, because if there is
someone that corruption in an institution, it will cause people around these
institutions are interested in doing something similar. Moreover, if the
sanction given to the perpetrators of corruption are still very light, it
causes people to not be afraid to commit corruption.
3.
Liked
shortcuts
• Positive: make it easier and faster for someone
achieve something purpose, so as not to waste time that could be used for other
things.
• Negative: instant cultural or shortcuts will only
make a person lazy in doing something. This culture causes a person will
perform a variety of ways to achieve their goals, no matter how good or bad it
is. Example: seserorang want to cross the street, but not through the crossing
stairs because they consider crossing through crossing the old staircase and
tired. So that one would prefer to cross directly on the street, whereas the
risk is someone could get hit by passing vehicles fast.

Glad
to throw the word "do not" | | example: "Do not Cheating"
becomes "Cheating". "Do not throw litter" to "throw
litter".
• Positive: nothing positive from these cultures
• Negative: This habit is not very good and not
exemplary because it will only hurt others and even ourselves. This habit is
tantamount to breaking the established rules.
5.
Know,
But Not Want to know
• In fact, many Indonesian people who know about the
bad effects of something done, but still do.

Shaking
Hands

that goes around us. Cultural greetings-shake often we see ranging from
everyday life or in a formal event. Taught according RasulAllah, shake culture
in Islam has several important benefits that we should know. Among the benefits
or efficacy shake hands as follows: as an intermediary braid friendship, as a

8.
7
Months
• In Indonesia, this event was a custom of the tribe
of Java. However, this time not only ethnic Javanese who carry it out. But
already spread throughout Indonesia. It is a form of gratitude. 7 months of
pregnancy congratulations performed as a form of gratitude for the people who
have been given a descent by the Creator. When measured from the day of birth,
the mother is only waiting for 2 months for delivery. And to get to 7 months,
the mother usually been through a process that could be considered sweet and
bitter. Imagine, already inhabiting the stomach of the baby's mother for 7
months. Of course it is something to be grateful.
9.
Tahlilan
Tradition
• Positive: Tahlilan tradition held by most people.
That the deceased person received his charitable hand of God and received
forgiveness for his sin which he has done during the life of the world.
Tahlilan also have some goals that are not only perceived benefits for families
who carry out alone, but can also be felt by the invitation to attend. namely:
Entertain the family of the late / deceased. Reducing the burden of the family
of the late / deceased. Inviting deceased relatives / deceased to always be
patient over the disaster it has faced. In addition to connect and tighten the
relationship between the invitation to the family of the late / deceased. Also
Apologizing for the mistake I have ever done by the late / deceased during his
lifetime to the invitation. Also As a means of settlement of the rights and
obligations of the late / deceased towards people who are still alive.
• Negative: The origin of this tradition actually
comes from the Hindu-Buddhist culture modified by ideas on Songo guardian,
spreaders of Islam in Java. Initially there is no tradition tahlilan, because
old people still believe in the spirits and the supernatural. Seeing this fact,
in addition to spread message of Islam, the trustees Songo also determined to
change their habits very thick shades tahayyul will then be directed to the
Islamic custom patterned and realistic. For that, they preach through artistic
and cultural paths that is favored by people with little modify and remove
elements at odds with Islam. so, this is not a negative culture tahlilan
provided it is done based on Islamic Shari'a.
