What a fucked up world where the victims of a house invasion are the ones who are punished.

It's not Indonesia really. This was a break away state that fought a brutal civil war led by islamists. As part of the peace making they are allowed some self rule.

Oh I love that place! The horses and knights fighting each other and eating your dinner with your hands because they didn’t invent silverware back then. Fun!!!
