We often ask a stupid question, though there are no stupid questions. For example, let’s say it is 7 AM in Indonesia; then what is happening around the world? Let’s say what is happening in at least three popular foreign countries in Indonesia. Here, I want to give you some illustrations of what is happening around the world.
Americans Are Going to Enjoy Their Evening When It is 7 AM in Indonesia!
I would love to start far away. I am going to Hollywood, where every dream can be fulfilled, including the dream of a reality show figure becoming president. If it is now 7 AM in Indonesia, Most Americans are preparing to go to bed because it is late, approaching late night and not because they are lazy, but because they have done several things while we are sleeping in Indonesia.
Except Hawaii, most areas in the States close between 7 PM and 9 PM when it is 7 AM in Indonesia, quite late, I guess. No wonder basketball is not a popular TV show in Indonesia. When it is prime time in the U.S., we’re actually going to work, or at least we’re making breakfast while our kids run around and our wife starts asking, “Why did you decide to have two kids?”. So I wouldn’t be surprised if we are asking the same questions now: “How come we will have to watch the game in those circumstances?” When you apply for a day off to watch a play-off NBA Game, your boss will ask hundreds of questions.
In the U.S. at the time, people were also enjoying dinner at a diner (sorry for the punchline!). Some are also deciding that sipping wine isn’t a bad idea, although it’s uncommon for Indonesians. Don’t forget, people are also going to gym to burn some fried chickens that they consumed for lunch. Or, they would love to watch any new movies because Americans are crazy about the silver screen.
Thais Are Just Like US! With a Twist….
Meanwhile, Thais will be busy then. Thailand has a similar time frame to ours. Thais usually have breakfast, but it’s simple because they have brunch around 11 before lunch at 1 PM. Fair to say, Thais really enjoy life. Most Thais who live in Bangkok don’t go to the office by car. They are quite realistic. They take the train because it is reliable and fast, and it covers almost all of Bangkok. Some kids go to school too, though they don’t always enjoy it! Not so different from Indonesian kids who constantly ask how understanding Mitochondria will pay their electricity and internet bills.
To add more, some people still decide to come to the office by car, and they regret it since Bangkok has one of the worst traffic jams in the world, though they are still trying to beat Bandung for the worst traffic jam.
Japanese, as usual, are Impressive When It Comes to 7 AM in Indonesia
Lastly, since it is 7 AM in Indonesia, the Japanese are no longer just waking up; they woke up about 2 hours earlier because Japan is 2 hours ahead of Indonesia. Japanese have had their breakfast. They sit at their desks and do their tasks. The Japanese are famous for focusing on their work. They are so professional; therefore, people follow in their footsteps. They don’t scroll or type while working, unlike Indonesians. However, we cannot take them as a complete example. At least, we can learn one or two lessons of their habits. And finally, that is all about what happened at 7 AM in Indonesia around the globe. So which country that you are going to curious about?
