Just digging out my old bookmarks, and look at what I found...

A Nice Fact

[Original Post at my Blogs | My Blogs]

Changi airport is one of the top-class airports globally, as evidence from a series of high-profile awards.

Therefore, it must mean something when its website offers a version in Indonesian, apart from English, Mandarin, and Japanese.

Notice from the picture below, the language selections in top-right of the webpage, and the content in Indonesian language.



Obviously, there are many possible explanations for the inclusion of this language. For a simpleton like me, I can only think that (based on the economic logic) Indonesians must be making up a significant portion of the human traffic in this world-class airport.
