How does the Japanese culture appear to the Indonesian people? requires a complex answer. By definition, culture is a very broad subject. It can be influenced and involved one's tradition, customs, religion, thought, educational background, literature, science, social life and economics. All of these can affect the definition of a single word "culture". When we look at each individual field, our impressions will vary with our age, profession, education, sex, experiences, and geographical locations. Using literature to define culture, the literary work of "Ichiaku no Suna" by Takuboku Ishikawa presents an excellent example. By comparing the translation done by the Japanese and the Indonesian, I would like to clarify the understanding of the Indonesian people towards the Japanese culture. Then I introduce forms of Indonesian poems in chapter 3.
