Widodo is a well-known metal head, having attended a Metallica concert in Jakarta in 2013. Rasmussen tweeted that Widodo "seemed eager to dig into" the collection. Widodo presented Rasmussen with a rencong, a traditional dagger from Aceh, during the meeting.[/QUOTE] [IMG]https://cdnph.upi.com/svc/sv/upi_com/1931512071072/2017/1/ff3193e2b984ba6e46d22c5917fd4054/Danish-premier-presents-Indonesian-president-with-Metallica-album.jpg[/IMG]

Not a big fan of our PM, but that's actually a nice gesture.

[QUOTE]Widodo presented Rasmussen with a rencong, a traditional dagger from Aceh, during the meeting[/QUOTE] Oh cool, that'll help him with his backstabbing!

Apparently Widodo likes Metallica, Led Zeppelin and Napalm Death. This is really fucking weird.

Reminds me of the polish prime minister(?) giving Obama a copy of The Witcher 2 when he was there in 2012/2013.

He's not Prime Minister though... [editline]3rd December 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Spetsnaz95;52943662]Not a big fan of our PM, but that's actually a nice gesture.[/QUOTE] Hands out Metallica with one hand, removes Pension and elderly care with the other. I'd have a beer with him!

[QUOTE=Bomimo;52943840]He's not Prime Minister though... [/QUOTE] He is, though?

[QUOTE=Bomimo;52943840]He's not Prime Minister though... [/QUOTE] Lars Løkke has been our prime minister for a little over 2 years now, which is the second time.

That’s actually pretty cool. Lars is probably having a heart attack watching someone receive an album for free though

Yeah Joko Widodo loves this kind of shit, there was even [url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2013/may/29/metallica-guitar-indonesian-governor]a scandal[/url] about whether a concert promoter tried to bribe him with a guitar signed by Metallica's Robert Trujillo [t]https://i.imgur.com/d6osSrC.png[/t]

[QUOTE=Grandzeit;52943922]Lars Løkke has been our prime minister for a little over 2 years now, which is the second time.[/QUOTE] I don't own a TV. Fuck me. Last i checked, we had a lady PM and everyone caught the Cooties.

If Widodo was a decent human rights respecter I might like the dude better, same with Dmitry Medvedev.

[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;52943681]Apparently Widodo likes Metallica, Led Zeppelin and Napalm Death. This is really fucking weird.[/QUOTE] He was born in 1961 and would've grown up around their music, no big surprise really.

[QUOTE=Bomimo;52944788]I don't own a TV. Fuck me. Last i checked, we had a lady PM and everyone caught the Cooties.[/QUOTE] Are you serious? It's been two years and change. How could you possibly avoid knowing that?

[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;52943681]Apparently Widodo likes Metallica, Led Zeppelin and Napalm Death. This is really fucking weird.[/QUOTE] I don't think it's so weird, there is a fairly significant metal scene in south east asia and far-east.

[QUOTE=Crimor;52945703]I blame Sjælland and Copehagen being so close to sweden for the idiocy in parliament :smug:[/QUOTE] I'd agree, except pretty much all of our current government is from Jylland. Being a Jyde in exile, this shames me greatly.

[QUOTE=GoDong-DK;52945310]Are you serious? It's been two years and change. How could you possibly avoid knowing that?[/QUOTE] Can you really blame me for not noticing any change in policy? We elected a red government back then and it behaved like a blue one. Now we have a blue one and it's still selling us to American corps. I'm just waiting for the day they've killed every single shred of welfare that separates from America and Africa at this point.

Not saying the former government was truly red, but sheesh, doesn't really excuse living under a Mount Everest sized rock.
