   Many people find the West in moral and intellectual decline. Issues   
   such as gay 'marriage,' transgender toilets, spiritual pogroms against   
   white males, nuclear families and Christians in general, Common Core,   
   and a laundry list of related items are almost literally chasing the   
   middle class out of the country.   
      
   Indonesia offers a strong traditional alternative. The traditional   
   family, sanctity of one's home, and a strong heterosexual,   
   male-dominated culture present a radical departure from the   
   satanically possessed West.   
      
      
   Religion figures prominently in society, and despite a large Muslim   
   majority, is quite tolerant and for the most part peaceful. There is   
   occasional violence, usually against property, but those responsible   
   are normally dealt with quickly and decisively.   
      
   Roughly 80% to 85% of the population is Muslim but the Constitution   
   guarantees protections for Hinduism, Buddhism, Catholicism, and   
   Protestantism, as well. The laws go so far as to forbid mixed-religion   
   marriages. One of the partners will have to convert, at least on   
   paper, or marry outside the country (not easy anywhere in Asia.)   
      
      
   In Indonesia, marriage is considered a sacred union between a man and   
   a woman. When getting married in Indonesia, one must first receive a   
   blessing from a mosque, church or temple before applying to register   
   the marriage with the government. There are no civil unions here. The   
   concept of 'gay 'marriage' is all but unthinkable here, and the US is   
   derided for recent changes there.   
      
   Though not strictly legal, Muslim men may have up to four wives,   
   though only one can be registered with the government. A man must have   
   the permission of his current wives in order to take on another. The   
   families are generally kept separate and usually in different cities   
   or towns.   
      
   Though Indonesia is very egalitarian in many respects, the man is   
   still very much in charge of his hearth and home. It is still   
   traditional for a young woman to audition her housekeeping skills for   
   prospective in-laws. Fathers are automatically considered to have the   
   final word in their house, and no Communist social services will   
   appear at the door for sensitivity training because of it. There are,   
   however, wildly differing cultures in Indonesia, and they have their   
   own internal rules. A foreigner looking for a spouse will want to   
   study family background and traditions before diving in. This will   
   save a lot of headache and surprises later.   
      
   When it comes to manners and social graces, Indonesian society is very   
   traditional and polite. People are almost always referred to with an   
   honorific, such as the local equivalent of Sir or Ma'am, or in more   
   familiar circumstances Uncle and Aunt, or Grandfather and Grandmother,   
   even when there is no blood relationship.
