Geef Mij Maar Nasi Goreng (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɣeːf mə maːr ˌnɑsi ˈɡoːrɛŋ]; En: "Just Give Me Nasi Goreng") is a song which was composed by Wieteke van Dort in 1977.
[1] She was born in 1943 in Surabaya, Japanese-occupied Dutch East Indies, and moved to The Hague, The Netherlands, at the age of 14.
The song was written in Dutch and was sung with a thick Indies accent by Van Dort herself.
She preserved her memories and love for various Indonesian dishes into the song,[2] i.e. nasi goreng, sambal, krupuk, lontong, pork sate, terasi, serundeng, milkfish, tahu petis, kue lapis, onde-onde, cassava, bakpau, ketan, and palm sugar.
The conflict of Irian in 1957 had made the relationship between Indonesia and The Netherlands heat up.
