Indonesians express anger with hashtag #GanyangAustralia which means 'Crush Australia' Anti-Australia protesters burn a paper with the Australian flag pictured on it during a rally in front of Australian embassy in Jakarta on November 21, 2013. AUSTRALIANS generally like Indonesia and its people. But the feeling is apparently not mutual. In the face of the spying scandal and Prime Minister's Tony Abbott's reluctance to offer a full upfront apology to Jakarta, ordinary Indonesians are going online to express their anger. And it's not pretty. The anti-Australian crusade is being led with the Twitter hashtag #GanyangAustralia which translates as 'Crush Australia'. We'll share some of those tweets in a moment. But first, here is one of the less pleasant comments from readers of the Jakarta Post, the newspaper which declared "Now it's Personal!" in an editorial this week. The newspaper seems to have no moderators, so the majority of the comments are not fit to be repeated. But one reader called SiangMalam summed up the general antipathy towards Australia when they said: Just look at how Australians who post in this forum 'speak down' as though they are a super power developed country with no problem of their own. If I were President SBY, I will cut off diplomatic relationship and send all scholarship students to New Zealand, UK, Netherlands and the USA. Just because they have a few hundred drunk Aussies drinking in Bali they think they are important to the survival of Indonesia? Well, there's the small matter of the $1.4378 billion in aid money we've donated to Indonesia over the past three years. For the record, that money has gone towards education, governance, economic development, health, humanitaran causes and general development support. But as mentioned, vast numbers of Indonesians still dislike us intently - at least if Twitter is anything to go by. Here's one example of that. That more or less translates as: "Turns out Australia isn't a good neighbor... Like a ghost in virtual world, we will take action #CrushAustralia" There is a widespread feeling that Australia is the only country which has ever spied on any other, as voiced in tweets like this one which translates as "#CrushAbbott #CrushAustralia Never harass Sovereignty # Indonesia We would die for # Homeland." There's some good old-fashioned flag-waving which is not too offensive (apart from the whole CrushAustralia thing). This one simply says "Indonesia is superior in terms of appeal anywhere in Australia #CrushAustralia" And then there are the patriotic ones with a not so pleasant tone. Some urge the very destruction of Australia. This one says "If Australia keeps spying, better Indonesia not to have any ties with Australia. Eliminate. Then there are the ones with menacing pics... Mind you, it's probably fair to say that not every Australian tweet has been in the best of taste either (excuse the pun). Here's another uniquely Australian take on this situation through the lens of humour. While it's nice to have a laugh to relieve the tension, the reality is that it could take years for Australian/Indonesian relations to heal. And even the most concerted diplomatic efforts may be in vain if some of the more vocal Indonesians on social media are any guide to the wider sentiment.
