So I find this kind of funny because I'm not sure how it's making its assessments on where I should move to. Because when the question about civil liberties came up I selected that I want a place with strong civil liberties protections. The number one option it gives me is Indonesia. Now I have visited Indonesia many times over the last decade and this is not a country that I would say has strong civil liberties protections. Quite the opposite in fact.
It does fit most of my other answers a reasonably well but the civil liberties are very lacking. Also the current people in political power are in the process of reverting several of the changes from the prior administrations that offered better protections for the people. Governmental corruption was on the decline for several years but now it has ramped up to insanely high levels. In order to get anything done for basic government services you need to bribe somebody. This is a stark contrast from 5 years ago.
The recent laws that they've passed that basically codify Sharia law is harmful to women. The guiding principles of Indonesia are supposed to be one about acceptance of different cultures because there is a vast cultural difference across all of the islands that they have the actual recent implementations show that the Muslim majority is basically bullying everyone else.
So this insight needs to update its data with something current. Because 5 to 7 years ago I would have considered Indonesia as an okay place to be but not now and not for the foreseeable future.
