Prabowo meets Macron: What no one tells you about it

Why Westerners Always Complain (and Indonesians Don’t), and other cultural differences

In this eye-opening and hilarious episode, Rémy and Savira explore some of the most surprising cultural contrasts between Indonesia and the West. Why do foreigners seem to complain all the time? Why is being late totally acceptable in Jakarta? And why do Indonesians often avoid saying "no", even when the answer is clearly no? Through real-life stories and honest reflections, the duo compares the mindset of Indonesians, Westerners, and even the Japanese when it comes to communication, time, and social norms. They also touch on: * The chaotic charm of Jakarta vs. the chill vibe of Bali * How Savira baked her signature marble cake from her brand Sapaserrie for the recording * A peek into Indonesia’s Brightspot Market and what makes the local creative scene so unique * What it’s like living — and loving — between two cultures Whether you're part of a multicultural couple, curious about cultural gaps, or just love hearing how other people see the world, this episode is both fun and deeply relatable. 🎙️ Indo Prancis Podcast, where France meets Indonesia 🎂 Follow @sapaserrie for more delicious creations 📍 Recorded in Jakarta, with laughs, cake, and a lot of love Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & Deezer. ----------------------------------------------------- Indo Prancis Podcast – A real-life French-Indonesian couple exploring culture, identity, and life between two worlds. 🎧 New episodes every Monday | Un podcast franco-indonésien où l'on parle amour, choc culturel, politique, cuisine et technologie… avec humour et sincérité.
