the consumer experience we wanted to take a more holistic approach in evaluating both the state of the industry as well as the competitiveness of the major players That is why we included a merchant survey component,” said Snapcart Chief Revenue Officer Astrid Wiliandry.  She added that the merchant and consumer experience are two sides of the same coin and findings on the merchant front were similar to what it saw with consumers Snapcart found that consumers used and spent more on GrabFood merchants were also using and earning more from the platform The research involved tier 1 and tier 2 cities in Indonesia The survey involved 500 owners or people-in-charge of restaurants and food and beverage shops who have used food delivery platforms and more than 570 consumers who have used food

Rusbadrol and Siti Aisyah Panatik@Abdul Rahman Christians and Muslims live in good relationship this harmonious relationship is deteriorating with the rise of intolerance and the Muslim fundamentalists this radical fringe is active in political and media circles come to doubt the relevance of the Islamo-Christian dialogue Despite the rise of these acts of intolerance on the part of Muslims the Church persists in its dialogue with Muslims this situation pushes the Church in Indonesia to realize that dialogue is This is not to imagine that Christians are forced to dialogue with Muslims to exist because it is part of the mission of the Church as sacrament of the Kingdom of God The Church is fulfilling its mission when it works with others to build the Kingdom of God in the sense of justice reconciliation and fraternity among all men the Catholic Church is looking for ways to build relationships with other believers The dialogue that the Church develops is not a dialogue between religions or institutions but between people who belong to different religions and recognize their equal human dignity Dialogue is an encounter that becomes word where there is mutual respect and listening It is neither a negotiation on the content of faith nor a debate where one seeks to score points It is a deep attitude marked by the desire to meet the other in its difference it is rooted in his faith in God who has taken the initiative of dialogue with humanity himself Building this type of dialogue is not an easy task Muslims and all other religions in our region share the same cultural root In this case the Javanese culture influenced by Hinduism This culture can serve interreligious dialogue He uses this art to build dialogue with non-Christians and The “Wayang” or shadow theater is a popular show in Indonesia On the island of Java have developed several variants of shadow theater The most popular form is the Wayang Kulit Purwa from Central Java Puppets are usually made from buffalo skin added on horn sticks who plays with light to modulate the shadows of his figures The performances of Wayang Kulit Purwa are invariably based on the adaptations of the Indian Sanskrit epics Father Handi plays the role of master puppeteer (dalang) The dalang is at the same time the storyteller the mouthpiece of all the protagonists and the puppeteer The dalang must know the manual and vocal techniques that will allow him to make his puppets live The dalang must then master the Javanese orchestra (gamelan) since he is the conductor A wayang kulit show is worn by Javanese music (gamelan) and singers The particularity of the Wayang of Father Handi is found in the story of the dalang (i.e He uses the wayang as a means to do catechism Instead of telling the story of the epic of Ramayana or Mahabharata Father Handi uses the wayang to present the biblical stories Father Handi’s puppets are biblical characters from the Old and New Testaments Father Handi is not the first to have had this idea This type of wayang has existed for several decades Wayang wahu is wayang that interprets biblical history (revelation) They are neighbors and neighbors of the presbytery of the parish of Father Handi Father Handi invited the local residents to learn how to play gamelan They then formed an orchestra group to which he gave the name “hamangun sih” a Javanese name meaning “to build charity” The relationship with non-Christians is woven and Another dialogue was built between Father Handi and the artist who draw the puppets Father Handi commissioned the making of the puppets of the biblical characters discussions take place between the painters and Father Handi the craftsmen must know the episodes of their life The exchanges focus on the aesthetic and artistic aspect of the puppets the discussions are also of theological order the puppets must show the physics of the character Father Handi had to explain the character of these characters in detail It is on this basis that craftsmen perform puppets Father Handi’s troupe has played a few times in most of the parishes of the diocese and elsewhere The non-Christians perfectly know that the Wayang Wahyu is a sort of catechism many non-Christian spectators attend the performances and appreciate them The members of the troupe who are not Christians do not see any obstacle to take part in this collaboration Even if they do not convert to Christianity they can then give testimonies among their relatives of their relationship with Christians Father Handi’s work with his Wayang Wahyu group is not decisive for national interreligious dialogue he can be a source of inspiration thanks to the way he uses Javanese culture to build the relationship between members of different faiths
