I have a Indonesian Chinese friend who has strange name. She said her parents made up her name preventing the massacre against Chinese.

Yes, somewhere around 1966, ethnic Chinese living in Indonesia where pressured/forced to adopt an Indonesian-sounding name: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Indonesian_surname#196...

Wow! That was a heavy burden for those parents. Imagine knowing that a misstep in the naming of your child would cause the death of many people.

Are you familiar with the Indonesian genocide? It was pretty awful but it seems like the world at large is unaware of what happened.

You are right, word should know more about this bloodbath for communist blood bathers.

I think he's joking about the parent saying the name of that individual prevented the massacre.
