India and Indonesia have very little in common. India is very social class-based aka castra, Indonesia is not. Just because they have "Ind" on their countries name doesn't mean they're similar. Instead, Indonesia is very similar to Thailand and Philippine despite their differences in religions (Islam vs Buddhism vs Christianity). If you've traveled to Thailand, expect Indonesians to have similar attitudes compared to Thais.
Judging from his body posture, skin and bone-structures (especially his eye colors), I'm pretty sure the gentleman is a legit centenarian. My grandparents are all centenarians and know several centenarian relatives so I know how they look like and act. Centenarians are kinda common in East and Southeast Asia, actually.
Nice tropical, sunny day all year with constant 6am to 6:30pm sunrise to sunset can do wonders to their body. Not to mention they consume much less calories than we do. Whenever I travel to SE Asia, I always eat 2-3x portions per meal because they're so small in comparison to US food servings.
The biggest downfall is that the people are relatively short and small. 5'-5" or shorter.
That is pretty interesting. Thank you for the additional info. Yeah I know they are different places, I brought up India because the thread had gotten onto the topic of India, even though the guy was from Indonesia. I have heard differing opinions of SE Asia. Some say like you that it is a very nice place metabolically, but I have heard others say that people are sickly there, constant cough, run down, too skinny, that kind of thing. What do you think?
