To attend school in Indonesia is to experience a microcosm of the nation itself: disciplined yet chaotic, communal yet competitive, traditional yet hungry for change. The Guru (teacher) remains a revered figure, second only to parents. The murid (student) is expected to show sopan santun (courtesy and manners) above all else.
