Indonesia–Malaysia relations
Disputes over the origins of a variety of dishes found in both countries is also a perpetual issue, from rendang to lumpia (popiah). The claims to an extent also overlap with neighboring Singapore. Despite the dispute never leading to a serious confrontation between the two countries, and politicians of both sides having even acknowledged it as "petty", in Indonesia however, an activist group held a demonstration in front of the Malaysian Embassy in Jakarta to protest the origin of the dish, lumpia in February 2015.
