    Sounds like Aceh… Yep, it’s Aceh. They’ve been strongly Islamic for centuries. Their Free Aceh Movement (Gerakan Aceh Merdeka) was a pain-in-the-ass even for Suharto, Indonesia’s military dictator throughout the 1960s/1990s.

      Imagine being a military dictator and not cracking down on dissidents smh. Chalk up another point against great man theory.
