I second that.  As a matter of fact, I just suggested the same idea to a
fellow Indonesian on the net.  Is there any other Indonesian on the net?
Let us hear your voice!  If there is not enough interest in creating a
soc.culture.indonesian, we probably can combine the southeast asian
countries and create a soc.culture.seasia as suggested by Donn or we might
create both.  Come on folks lets air you opinion.  Where are the people
from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Philipine, and Brunai?
BTW, the quoted article above was posted on soc.culture.china.

I am netural regarding the creation of the group.  I want to say that
some of the best food on our (two) trips to SE Asia was at the
Cafe India in Bangkok.  If you get to Bankgkok, try it.  Inexpensive,
but clean and superb.

  I, for one, will vote for a combined group of all SE Asian countries. This
is because I would be interested in communicating with people from that part
of the world.   If the information flow gets to be too large then we should
consider splitting up those countries with most contributions.

  I love to experiment with South East Asian dishes,  Anyone has a recipe for
Kado Kado?
