The Double-Edged Digital Sword: Understanding "Koleksi Pelajar ABG" and Indonesian Youth Culture In Indonesia, the phrase "Koleksi Pelajar ABG" and social interactions within these groups
The "koleksi" (collection) aspect often refers to the curated digital personas these students build. In a culture that increasingly values "viral" status, Indonesian students often feel pressured to participate in trending dances, fashion challenges, or "glow-up" transformations. This creates a culture of constant surveillance and comparison, where self-worth is measured in likes and shares. 2. The Clash Between Tradition and Modernity such as economic inequality
This paper explores the dynamic role of Indonesian male youth peer groups, colloquially known as Abg (short for Abang or Remaja ), in the context of modern social issues and cultural preservation. Often stigmatized as sources of delinquency or street subcultures (such as the Geng Motor phenomenon), these groups are frequently misunderstood by mainstream society. By examining the "koleksi" (collection) of behaviors, values, and social interactions within these groups, this study argues that Abg communities serve as critical spaces for identity formation and social resilience. The paper analyzes how these youths negotiate traditional cultural values with modern challenges, such as economic inequality, urbanization, and digital influence, ultimately redefining what it means to be a young Indonesian man today.
