One of the common greeting in Indonesian language, selamat sore means good afternoon. I like to speak in Indonesian language as well because for me they have a soft accent and its nice to hear it.
When I was travel in various places in Indonesia, most of the local people think that I'm Indonesian just because I could speak their language fluently. I can just as easily go everywhere and buy something cheaper as local people not as a tourist.
Indonesia has variety of food from sweet to very spicy food just like any other country in Asia. Sambal or hot chili sauce is everywhere across the region. Every region of Indonesia has their own sambal and for many Indonesians, no food taste right without sambal on the side.
