“Because of the close distance, Pakistanis go to Dubai more often than Indonesia, there they meet Indonesian people who are Indonesian Migrant Workers (TKI). The impression of the TKI makes Indonesia have its own impression in the eyes of the Pakistani people,” said YouTubers with 1.15 million subscriber This.
“But this is extraordinary, they have to see Indonesia directly from their country. Indonesia is very cool, more than I expected, it is a very developed country,” added Zain Ul.
Indonesia is a Halal Food Heaven
Zain Ul also admitted that it was easy to get halal food while he was in Indonesia. For him, Indonesia is a paradise for halal food.
“There’s no need to be confused about finding food, unlike when I visited other countries where it was difficult to find halal certificates. Here, almost all food has halal certification issued by the Ministry of Religion,” said Zain Ul.
