Some Indonesian Buddhists are not happy over a bar in Jakarta which is known as the Buddha Bar. They believe the name of the pub insults Buddhism.

Buddha Bar is openning in Jakarta.
Most Buddhist protest.
Buddha Bar still in operation..
that prove how corrupt or dick head, stupid are the Indonesia govenment!
This is a bad promotion of Indonesia!
and the son’s of govenour own that place!
I don’t blame the Indonesian Buddhist.
It’s probably not a big deal in other countries who have the franchise, but not for the Buddhist in Indonesia. It uses Buddhist icons, so they have right to say NO.
Stupid Indonesian government … what a lousy excuse. discrimination … if it has something to do with Islam, they MUST have been closing the bar. They should do the same thing for the Buddhist.
