The guide to Indonesia told me never to touch a child's head. What happened?

Touching a child's head in Indonesia is considered disrespectful and impolite. Because people in Indonesia generally believe that children's heads are places where gods live and that they are noble and inviolable. If you touch your head and kill a child casually, it will be considered an insult, so everyone should remember this taboo.

Besides touching children's heads, there are many customs and taboos in Indonesia. For example, most Indonesians refuse to eat pigs. Many Indonesians believe in Islam and Islam believes in Allah. Not eating pigs is loyalty to Allah. Moreover, they think that pigs are unclean animals, and it is better not to eat them because they are ugly and stupid, so they usually eat beef, mutton, fish and shrimp.

There is also a wonderful custom in a small tribe in Indonesia, which sounds scary. This custom is the "custom of finger amputation". Here, a woman had to cut off a finger to commemorate her dead relatives. She died even more. This custom is really shocking. If you live long, many relatives around you die young, and ten fingers are not enough for them. Although women in this tribe don't go out to earn money and work, they just do some housework at home, but the custom of amputation is painful both physically and mentally. Fortunately, only a few people still keep this custom.

There is also a custom of eating in Indonesia, that is, everyone grabs food with his right hand. They knead the food into balls with their right hands and put them in their mouths. Put a bowl of water beside it from time to time to prevent rice from sticking to your hands. In Indonesia, if you eat rice with your hands, don't use your left hand. After all, in Indonesia, your left hand is dedicated to the toilet. In short, Indonesia has many customs and taboos. If you want to travel there, you'd better do your homework first to avoid making jokes and embarrassing everyone when you get there.
