Based on what I have read on the essay, I strongly agree with the statement stated there that culture cannot be separated from political life, especially in Indonesia. Indonesia has a lot of Islands which each province has their own culture. I like the beginning of this paper that describes about anthropology at first. Start from the history of how it emerged at first, and how people know anthropology itself in general. It is such good information. The writer mentioned about seven element of culture by Koentjaraningrat in 1987. However, it would be better if the writer added a footnote on each citation and add it in the bibliography as reference. This is to

The writer described about the classification of social classes in Java. I agree with the writer's opinion about the reason why most of Indonesian presidents are coming from Java is because people who live on Java Island have high numbers of population. Consequently, the majority voters are from Java. Although Indonesia consists of several huge islands, but the government system is centralized in Java Island. Even though Sumatra and Borneo Islands are including the larger islands in Indonesia, but they only have few numbers of population compared with total population in Java Island. If we are seeing to the history, in ancient times there were a lot of kingdoms that occupied Java Island. That is caused the number of total population in Java bigger than Sumatra and others.

But, I am very happy can read this paper because I can get new knowledge about Marhaenism ideology that discussed clearly in the paper. There was a problem that I found which is the writing on the paper often knit with next word without any spaces. This is make me as the reader should press space bar to put space between them.

The reader might feel the writer is not careful in using his writing skill. My suggestion is the writer have to be more careful in writing paper, so that there will be no negligence or typo things
