Abstract

Indonesia, the largest archipelago in Southeast Asia (1, 913, 578.68 km2), is a nation that encompasses extremely diverse cultural traditions. Indonesia stretches between Asia and Australia, as well as between the Indian and Pacific Oceans (BPSStatistics Indonesia, 2015). By 2016, Indonesia had 258.7 million inhabitants, of which 10.9% were living in poverty (BPS-Statistics Indonesia, 2017). Within this nation, over a thousand tribes live across different islands. The largest tribe, the Javanese people, inhabits the island of Java, which is the most populous island in Indonesia.
