Indonesia is a multicultural country. It includes several racial, religious and cultural groups. A nation of 13,000 islands, 300 ethnic groups and 200 languages. This community follows six religions (Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, Catholicism, Buddhism, and Confucianism) in addition to other faiths (Noer, 2019; Utomo, 2020; Zainuri, 2018). National diversity can be both an opportunity and a problem. The possibility of sovereignty over diversity, as well as the risks of conflict posed by diversity itself. On the one hand, the diversity of a multicultural society is an asset for national prosperity, but on the other hand, this situation is prone to conflict and division (Dellarosa, 2021). Managing this diversity is critical to maintaining the integrity of the Indonesian nation and encouraging its development. A pluralistic society, like the Indonesian national identity, requires an emphasis on unity rather than diversity. The theme of multiculturalism will appear there. Multiculturalism is based on the recognition of social diversity. This heterogeneity can be seen as diversity in culture, customs, lifestyles, beliefs, and other types of distinctions (Budirahayu, 2020).

In particular, unresolved conflicts between followers of a religion are among the unresolved intercultural issues. Both between followers of the same religion and between followers of other religions. For example, the mosque fire that occurred during the 2015 Tolikara conflict, supported by the Ministry of the Evangelical Church, burned the mosque while Muslims were performing Eid prayers. The reasons mentioned above are enough to justify the urgent need to promote intercultural education in Indonesia (Kusuma, 2017). However, multicultural education has been the subject of scientific debate since the early 2000s. Various academic platforms (seminars, seminars and public dialogues on intercultural education) have emerged. In fact, the issue of pluralism has not been completely resolved (Hadi, 2017).This article reiterates the need to implement multicultural education in Indonesia.

Gadjah Mada University need to multicultural education.

Gadjah Mada University seminaries need to develop pointers of multicultural education. In addition to racism, detest crimes, a prejudice and a demarcation. Middle-position adolescents are veritably apprehensive of the need to gain a understanding of a better forbearance for population diversity.

The multicultural problem that arises in the people of Central Java, namely Semarang, is caused by several factors, including: Economy, namely the Totok Chinese group, is more blended with the indigenous group because they feel that they have a social status that is not much different from the area of origin where they also come from villages with manual labor skills; Marriage, namely among the Chinese, there is an intimate marriage relationship with the Javanese, such as Subject F's grandfather married a Javanese woman as a second wife so that he can get a son. Social identity, which is the Chinese mode of Islam raising to raise the image of its slumped social identity is also quite interesting because, being Islam among the Chinese is said to be a big disgrace to the Chinese community. That is why they are usually given social sanctions with certain negative labels, even the degree is down, China may be considered lost, ostracized or can be expelled; Cultural society, which is the difference between social groups between Java and China, among Chinese Peranakan feels that the upper-level social image will maintain the image at the same level, for example officials, nobles, priyayi and also maintain the image with the lower class; and, Social distance is the activity of two parties taking into account the dimensions of intimacy seen in a typical pattern in multicultural relations between the Chinese and Javanese. The Chinese are basically able to get along with the Javanese in the form of friendship, neighborhood life both in residence and in boarding houses (for students). Socialization at work or at school is also not a problem.

However, for more intimate relationships such as courtship, marriage and brother-in-law relationships, there is a stronger rejection than that of the Javanese. In Javanese people too, it is common to interact and know Chinese people, so friendship, conflicting relationships and relationships at work or school are relatively non-rejected. As for more intimate relationships such as marriage, courtship and brother-in-law relations, there is a stronger rejection but not as strong as the rejection of the Chinese. This happens to all interpersonal activities, activities in the place of residence and activities on campus.
