Indonesia is one of the few countries where anti-communist propaganda is very effective. In fact, anything perceived even slightly critical of the government’s policies is considered communist. It works bc the people have been brainwashed to believe revolt = communism.
Spurs have a lot of runners but too many of them are receive-release players. They prefer to pass & move instead of making movements to open spaces for a key passer. That’s why defending against them looks so much easier than it needs to be

Fulham should be up by 4 at this point. The only reason they’re not is their own inefficiencies and luck. Spurs have been so calamitous in their rest defence that they’re making it a training game for Fulham.

This will reduce land pollution better than any Indonesian government policy and I think that’s laughable

Burnley will put up a fight to avoid relegation, but Leeds have their fate sealed. Leeds do not have the game-changers like they did in their last PL stint, leading to a constant struggle to put up any sort of fight against the better teams in the league

Indonesia needs more engineers, yes, but of all kinds. Mechanical, industrial, AI, AND environmental. The country can build, but it’s no use if that building kills the rest of us, and the first thing that kills you is your environment working against you

If you think the solution to floods is less rain, then you’re not seeing the bigger picture. Rainfall, however heavy, must have its damage be containable. The Earth is formed for that purpose. To influence the Earth is to think you have control over something you don’t

Weather engineering is Indonesia’s ecological undoing. Like many other historical innovations, Indonesia is using this tool however they please with no long-term consideration for the country’s natural wellbeing. It’s a prime example of man’s arrogance taking over nature’s powers
November 28, 2025 at 11:37 AM
Indonesian conservatives frame the floods as a “God-given event”, using terms like fate & destiny to describe a catastrophe. They refuse to see how incompetence & negligence play significant roles in the inability to anticipate & prevent the damage the floods have caused

Political incompetence manifests in different ways. Ignorant governance is one of them. This tragedy will be Indonesia’s Katrina, and the sad part is we don’t have the facilities to bounce back from it
November 28, 2025 at 11:13 AM
The tragic part of the disasters in Aceh & North Sumatra is how minimal coverage there is about the events in other online platforms. Rather, the politics there are still mute as most still think the government has this covered when they clearly do not

If you want to fix corruption in Indonesia, you have to create a culture where whistleblowers are rewarded. Right now, any malpractice either frames innocent parties or is covered up with military precision. That scares the people into submission, allowing corruption to blossom

Spending a lot of money on free school meals is somewhat justifiable considering you’re basically building up from scratch again. But to budget nearly $20 BILLION for that programme is just blatant corruption by the Indonesian government

If this PSV result is the final straw for Slot, then Liverpool can just write this season off altogether. To Slot, the solution is clear and he’s made tactical adjustments to that end (Szobo RB, Gravenberch advanced). Sacking him would just seem shortsighted
November 26, 2025 at 10:11 PM
I need to watch the Liverpool-PSV game back. Hard to believe Peter Bosz is exposing Slot’s tactics again like in the Eredivisie. Plus, if you believe the club, they’re not trying to continue last season’s tactics either. So, there must be something else

Arsenal’s second half justifies their win against Bayern and why they’re currently leading both the PL and UCL league phase. Even against an unbeaten team that is dynamically excellent, Arsenal can find a way. No other team in Europe can match them.
November 26, 2025 at 9:52 PM
Arsenal came out into this second half with a lot more bravery. Higher line, taking more risks, almost as if they remembered this is their house and they’re the ones who should be taking control
November 26, 2025 at 9:36 PM
Amazing vision & delivery from Kimmich. That’s what a deep-lying playmaker can do to you. Yet see the positions of Mosquera & MLS relative to Saliba & Timber. A few yards forward and Gnabry wouldn’t have taken that first time, changing the attack’s outcome
November 26, 2025 at 9:01 PM
Persistent Bayern possession is going to tire Arsenal and that concerns me as it means lower fitness levels for against Chelsea. This is where Arteta needs to be proactive in his subs to mitigate further injury issues come the weekend
November 26, 2025 at 8:58 PM
Naturally the goal came from Arsenal’s LHS as they weren’t as coordinated nor aware to defend the long ball from Kimmich. Unnatural pairing that led to miscommunication. But I wouldn’t put Hincapie on just to solve this. I need him fully fit for Chelsea
November 26, 2025 at 8:55 PM
Bayern have their Thomas Müller regen and his name is Lennart Karl. I dare say he’ll displace Wirtz in the German NT. A willing runner, always makes himself available in the final third, and utilises his space to retain & maximise possession.
November 26, 2025 at 8:52 PM
This is a game of moments and Arsenal aren’t making the most of their moments yet. Loose touches, misplaced kicks, and not winning their duels. The difference isn’t big as against Spurs, but bc it’s Bayern, the lapses are exposed much more harshly
November 26, 2025 at 8:39 PM
Arsenal fans shouldn’t worry about rotations, especially when you consider some of the players on the bench literally just came back from injury. The expectation is always to play 2x a week, hence, you must maintain that
November 26, 2025 at 8:29 PM
We’re so good in all phases of play that we’re very prepared to play against any type of opponent. Even with Bayern possession, there’s always the inkling that Arsenal will score. First corner and we score from that. More to come.
November 26, 2025 at 8:27 PM
The ultimate goal for Indonesia’s NT is to reach the playing quality shown by Fabregas’ Como. Manipulate the opposition for space, constant 3rd-man runs, and dynamic overloads throughout buildup. All this complemented with excellent technical quality
November 26, 2025 at 12:43 PM
Chelsea away at the weekend will be a bigger test for Arsenal than Spurs and Bayern. Discounting Spurs whose players stupidly didn’t follow through with Frank’s game plan, Bayern tonight is a litmus test for Arsenal’s general competitiveness. Chelsea, however, is much more
