Where Is Java When You Said That In Jakarta

stayinjogja--A few years ago, when stayed in jakarta i had some friends which come from bandung (still in java island). When i want to went home to jogja i asked him,'Do you want some souvenir from jogja?'. He asked me,'Do you want to go to Jawa?'.

It's amazing for me, because jakarta still in java island, bandung still in java island but many people who stayed and lived there said if they want to go to Jogja, Semarang, Surabaya, and other place in Central Java and East Java territory they will said, "Go home to Java".

So, i hope you not suprised if some people in jakarta or bandung said going home to Java (Jawa : Bahasa)
