Jakarta –
Recently, the average height of women and men in Indonesia has suddenly become a topic of conversation. Starting from Megawati Soekarnoputri’s statement alluding to the ideal height of Indonesian youth should be at 180 centimeters.
In fact, it is far inversely proportional to the World Population Review data entitled Average Height by Country 2023. This survey lists 10 countries with the longest and shortest average height in the world.
Quoted from its official website, most countries use the metric system to measure height. Although the metric system is the most common system of measurement, the WPR includes the average height per country in imperial units.
For example, the imperial system measures height in feet and inches, while the metric system uses meters and centimeters. These units of measurement are not difficult to change, but countries tend to use one over the other to maintain consistency.
