    If anything this story lets people see that Jakarta is a major city with skyscrapers and at least a fancy pedestrian bridge, not a jungle with dirt tracks and cows pulling carts https://9to5mac.com/2025/02/25/iphone-16-ban-set-to-be-lifted-in-indonesia-in-return-for-1b/ 🤣🤣

    @liztai the level of cringe these people are reaching 🤪😂😂😂😂

    I’m partial to thinking the Chinese are taking these kinds of posts as entertainment and a revelation that all the stereotypes they’ve heard about Americans are pretty much spot on and not at all exaggerated.

    Malaysians are blowing up about this iPhone 16 Pro ad because the word sinema is non standard in Malay and the use here in “Karya sinema” is grammatically incorrect — the correct form would be “Karya sinematik”.

    In the replies they’re lamenting the loss of the Malay language identity and some are comparing it to Indonesian or saying it’s becoming Indonesian. I noted in the reply that while it’s also non standard grammar in Indonesian, this is common practice.

    Folks, this is advertising. Grammar rules often go out the window to catch people’s attention and to create some sort of brand or messaging association. Based on the replies, Apple succeeded in getting people to talk about it. The fact that it got posted on social media means it’s reaching beyond its intended audience. It worked! 😂😂

    @tchambers I think this is the sensible take, at least for the time being because as you said, limiting instead of blocking allows for individual choice instead of slamming down the ban hammer for everyone whether they like it or not. Most people aren’t on Masto/Fedi but may be on Threads while the other, more likelier option than switching to the Fedi is to jump to Bluesky which doesn’t federate with this place without a bridge.

    @loran_hayden @mastodonmigration not sure why you think that way because you only need an account in one server/instance and you’ll be connected to others (one’s that aren’t blocking yours or not blocked by yours anyway).

    @loran_hayden @mastodonmigration because each of them are individual servers run by different operators. You can if you’re lucky but you can’t always claim the same name everywhere when there are thousands of servers.

    It’s the same as not always being able to have the same email address on every email provider.

    Expecting companies to invest in Indonesia just because they’re doing well in sales ignores the realities of running a sustainable business. Sure, it’s fair to want businesses to contribute to the markets they profit from, but investments can’t be driven by sales numbers alone. They need to make sense, whether it’s about supply chains, regulations, or long-term viability. Pressuring companies to invest without considering these factors often leads to rushed, unsustainable decisions that end up costing everyone in the long run.

    That said, there’s room for a balanced approach. Instead of tying investments directly to sales, Indonesia could focus on creating conditions that make investing worthwhile, like improving infrastructure, offering clear incentives, and ensuring regulatory stability. This way, companies can contribute meaningfully without being forced into decisions that don’t align with their business goals. Fair contributions are important, but they should come from partnerships built on mutual benefit, not pressure. Otherwise, it’s just a short-term fix with a long-term price tag.

    Apple didn’t invest in Vietnam because the market loves the iPhone so much, they’be been investing for years and each time increasing their commitment because the government offered attractive investment opportunities and incentives, provide a stable and consistent environment for businesses, and ensure long term investment and production sustainability despite political upheavals.

    Vietnamese mobile developers also took up the Apple platforms because they saw opportunities, not because they were pushed or coaxed into the platforms. Most Indonesian developers and companies only see opportunities based on local sales numbers and market size. They don’t see beyond the domestic market. That’s why you struggle to find quality Mac and iOS developers in the country.

    The article also mentioned about the Ministry of Industries spokesperson saying that Apple submitted their investment proposal over WhatsApp. It sounds like the government wants to shame Apple for sending such an important document over a chat app but the country runs almost entirely on WhatsApp. Comms within and across government ministries and agencies are done almost exclusively on the platform, with letterhead documents for official records. What are the chances that they sent it that way because they were told to submit the document ASAP and the paper doc follows after, because November and December are holiday months for the company?

    TIL a lot of Indonesians don’t consider themselves polyglots despite speaking one or more local languages in addition to Indonesian and maybe English. We are the top trilingual nation in the world. Javanese is three languages (not dialects) in itself.
