Why do people say that we as a nation are stupid, but in some Olympic events we are the champions?
In the Olympic saint, our nation always get gold medals in several categories, but until now our nation is still regarded as a nation and say that stupid, so if we think, true that statement, as well as how to keep our nation can be categorized into an intelligent nation ?

Stupidity is a certain assessment of a person's (or in this case, a nation) ability to use intelligence in order to make tasks more effective. In this case, stupidity or intelligence is not related to a sports event. A sporting event, such as Olympics, is another area of intelligence.
So, in common and simplest terms. intelligence is not measured by a sporting event. You can be the Athlete of the Year over and over again and still look and act stupid. Don't mix the two - they are polar opposites. A sporting event require less thinking and more of action. Hope you understand.

Our nation will continue to be insulted stupid and retarded if the government still continues to run like this. do not blame the people who say that Indonesia is a nation of stupid, but blame the people who run it.
as long as our government still led by the rats and pigs, for as long as our country will continue to be insulted stupid. although as much as anything achievement carved by Indonesian citizens.

In some competitions such as Olympic saint ...
only the best candidates, and elected to follow.
can not be used as a reference or represent the nation of Indonesia.
Although the intelligence race events, Indonesia always win, can not be concluded that Indonesia is a nation that smart. But not all citizens could also be said Indonesia is stupid-stupid.
What percentage of the Olympics as a chance to follow it,
What percent who got a decent education?
CHANCE is not obtained

Olympic champion saint not a benchmark.
Because if averaged from 240 million people of Indonesia, what percentage of successful / smart?
Funny thing is another clever reply that most people like to fool the stomachtheir own affairs in order ..
Just a small example, Indonesian football, the search for 11 people who play good football, not met? than 240 million people, but until funds could be billions, where's the money?

As children of the nation, I personally do not accept the opinion of those who say we are a nation that stupid, just many of the nation who take advantage of smart in other countries, for example Habibie would rather stay in the country Jermain, because respect for other nations to smart people is greater than our nation, especially in terms of well-being of other nations is more promising than working in individual countries, two factors that must be considered our Government. It says stupid by other nations in the sense that we can not utilize the intelligence of the nation for the sake of our nation.

NATION: assessment of the world of a nation is not only assessing one side, but extensive and thorough.
Ancient times we judge a nation of international government policies and sometimes we can misjudge one nation (this is the name of national to international propaganda), this era of government-controlled media (TVRI).
Currently the world more open to information, people become more open and more people will not judge others from what country he comes from, what color, what religion, but from the individual's own
If we were Olympic champions in small fragments which add points of this nation (and in decent appreciated).
Now we see our general conditions in the international arena through the media: we still recorded the most corrupt in asia, most schools are generally poor, probably the most racist against Chinese our brother, maybe vice versa, the most easily damaged forests, high unemployment, easily provoked, the capital squalid, jams etc.
God will not help the nation if he is not helping others and himself.
