Obama and His Childhood in Indonesia

By Quyen Do

Barak Obama is currently the US president, and his private information always draw attention from public. After Obama's mother got divorced from a Kenyan origin, she married Soentoro, an Indonesian citizen when Obama was still six years old. He was then brought to Jakarta together with his new family. In his childhood, Obama's years in Indonesia were memorable for some of his ex-schoolmates as well as his teachers. He was known among his friends for his smartness. Therefore, his impressions in Indonesia can be seen as follows:
