    Sumatran Coffee is the most well known coffee from Indonesia in the western world, however it's not the "Best" we have, it's the quirkiest.
    due to the natural processing it often described to be heavy, woody, and earthy. and the coffee you get from the traditional sellers would't be the best example to enjoy it just because "it would not be palatable for westerners". and it's not just sumatra, across Indonesia traditionally we don't enjoy coffee with all the modern coffee fuss. we roasted the beans almost to a charcoal, and we adds sugar (in jogja, people literally add wood charcoal lol).
    anyway, if you wanna experience all the subtlety of Indonesian coffess, try modern or upscale coffee places. and try beans below
    - washed/semi washed(just for fun) Aceh gayo
    - washed Bali Kintamani
    - washed Kerinci
    - washed Ijen
    - washed Wamena
    to the extreme: Natural/honey/black honey Aceh Gayo

    welcome to Indonesia sister.
    In Islamic teachings there is a term "prevention is better than cure".
    The evil sources of destruction in society are alcohol, gambling, fornication, interest,
    and all of this is prohibited [Haram] in Islamic teachings, the policy behind this prohibition is to maintain peace and tranquility in society.
    And as far as I know, this punishment applies only to Muslims, not to non-Muslims who live there [unless they do it in public], because if you do it in your own private place it's not a problem.
    Like if someone is homosexual, as long as they don't act in public and don't campaign [show] their ideology, it doesn't matter [so it's their own privacy].
    So enjoy your trip!!!

      You know what's not haram in islamic teachings tho ? Marrying children - having sex slaves - beating ur wife if she doesn't listen to u - drinking camel piss - drinking liquids full of flies - not washing ur hands before eating. So much for harm prevention. Truth is Sharia law is a 7th century law for people from the 7th century and it has no right to be applied on ppl of the 21st century. We have way more knowledge now than ppl of 7th century and we should make our own laws based on maximizing happiness of freedom. Sharia law only works on people who believe their lives are meaningless and the real life is after they die. That's why they give up all their joy because they've been indoctrinated to believe it's not worth living.

Also, non-Muslim in Aceh are obeying what the local government ordered to them, in this case selling food during Ramadan. I, as a local are already know this long before you lady. So, if you kept saying I'm lying it means you wanna frame that Aceh's not safe and dangerous to visit because the stigma of the prolonged conflict that occurred decades ago is still lingering in your memories.

    Hey, just wanted to say that I appreciate your honesty. Sometimes people tend to shy away from expressing their opinions but glad that you’re not one of them. I’m glad that you’ve told the locals that you don’t believe in anything, it’s a lesson for them that not everyone who’s not Muslim is automatically a Christian 😁 I’m also happy to hear things that you don’t agree with.
    In general, provinces in Indonesia have less autonomy than states in Australia, but the province of Aceh is an exception as it’s considered a special region so they have their own bylaws. One thing to be aware of is that these bylaws are usually results of political maneuvering. Politicians might propose a bylaw to make themselves look pious and thus boosting their political careers.
    The curfew for women was actually put in order during the time of a female mayor in Banda Aceh, while one who wanted to lift it was a male governor. This doesn’t actually point out to anything for them as individuals, it’s just politics. As in other places around the world, religions are potent when used as political tools.

    FUN FACT: Aceh, if you dont know about our anicent history in Indonesia was the first blueprint on bringing Islam to Indonesia mainly in Sumatra and Jawa provinsi. Teaching many Islamic scholars and thus having today (contemporary Indonesia) majority as Islamic faith in the world. Aceh provinsi is important in Indonesia because its what spread the Islamic religion everywhere in Indonesia. ❤

    Muslims are generally very hospitable people and generous.
    As another note Ramadan is not about food. Its been greatly emphasized even in Australia with the lakemba ramadan markets and in liverpool. But the idea of ramadan is to connect back to God and reset, re learn ur religion and to have a good connection to it 😊 i hope that helps. Fasting helps u too focus on what God has asked of you.

I applaud you for trying to respect all the rules and just fully embracing the culture/ beliefs.

    Such great idea to visit the city of syariah ACEH ...
    Actually no big different with others city in indonesia...only straight law and regulation base on islam syariah law ...
    Very simple way is just follow the rules or law ..
    Nothing is huge or scarry thing,just being to understand what is it..
    Simple simple law like any moslem country ... No bikini open dressed no rude manners like other culture no drunk or any alcohol ...the rest is normal life ..nothing to be worried or and scare of ..
    But aware the manner and dress or any attitude ...
    Like when you visit malaysia or singapore ..same with straight rule and regulation ...as long as we do care and obey ...nothing to be worries ...
    Event you made mistaken and in unpurposes...they still has undesttanding tolerance for mistaken because you are just visitor ot just normal tourist who has own background and religion ...we still do have understanding or tolerance as long as not happening (again) for the second time ...
    We always welcome
    We still has lovely smile ..warm and love to connected ..like typical indonesian people.
    So nothing to be worries or scarred ...
    To be honest .. i love this city ..there is some benefit when we implement some straight law...

    10:20 I wouldn't be so sure he's being nice asking if you have baby or are married. It is illegal for unmarried couples to stay together in Aceh. The punishment is public flogging and jail. You need to be more careful about the answers you give out.

      In fact, in practice, Aceh's sharia law are not that rigid. They are tourist and we respect them. If you look in detail, many Acehnese couple also dating and walking in public spaces and still don't marry, as long as they don't doin skinship excessively in public places.❤

    Hey Jossie, this is a great piece of content from you. It’s my first time here. I am Malaysian and have been to Jakarta several times. There isn’t much difference between these two countries in terms of culture and people. Probably because most of us believe in the same things. I like Indonesia the same way I love my country. Anything from there always gets my interest, such as their content on RUclips, the music, the ustads. Everything is easy to adapt and embrace, except for the food. Haha… Indonesian food is mostly dry (as far as my experience goes), but Malaysian food is mostly gravy. I really want to taste the coffee. I am a coffee lover. The law that prevents you from going outside late at night is basically to protect you from any harm. Even though the place is ruled under Sharia Law, we never know if there is a psychopath out there preying on victims

      Most scholars of Islam are of the opinion that as a Muslim you can respond with "Wa aleikum salam" = answer to Assalamu aleikum. But as a Muslim you should greet obvious non-Muslims normally, respectfully with nice words but not with Assalamu aleikum. There is nothing wrong when non-Muslims greet Muslims with Assalmu Aleikum.

    What people don`t know about `Syaria Law` in Acehnese Province, is a mix rule between Indonesian Law.
    I will gives you an example, If someone do `Fornification`, the original punishment in Islam for a Fornification you will get `mass-stoned` untill death. But here in Acehnese Province of Indonesia, you only get lashes with a small bambo in public. (Before you gets lashes, you wear a thick body protector).
    I was real Acehnese from my anchestor, in my Village in West Acehnese (Nagan Raya), what people testimonies about getting this punishment is : `The bamboo lashes is not that hurt, but the shame is unberable...`.
    So, That`s why... Syaria Law is really depended on the leader take place, when this Syaria Law were implemented.
    Acehnese Province, is just like a another common Indonesian province,. Nothing to worried about it...
