So, in this video we discuss about Bagas being gay, being bullied by his brothers and sister, being HIV positive, and convert from a Muslim to a Christian. At the beginning of the video, he says that he was rejected and that means he is nothing in his family. In the video it says he left his house when he was 16 years old, and it’s because his brothers and sister make a joke and also bullied him a lot from when he was a child to a teenager, they say “don’t you have a girlfriend. are you gay?”. And because he also lives in a small area so the joke can spread, and everyone can find out about it. So, he went to Jakarta but the first month he was in Jakarta he lived on the streets, and he continued his life doing some work. but now he has a steady job as a freelance designer, and he’s been in a relationship for five years. After a few years of being in a relationship he found out that he was HIV positive and after finding out that he felt like he was going to die and had to give up all his dreams. but he felt lucky to be able to find out information about treatment faster than them. he had also tried to commit suicide by taking a lot of medicine, but apparently it failed. and after that happened, he went to get treatment and learn to live with HIV. he also said the last few years the situation had gotten worse; the local government did not allow them to express their community and many LGBT events were banned.
