    Why does this sentence mix formal and formal pronouns? "Saya" is formal and "kamu" is informal.

    'Saya' is indeed a formal pronoun, but some people also use it in informal situation.

        "Kamu" is you and "Saya" is I/me, sometimes "Aku" is I/me

          Do you need the "and"?

          Is "I drink milk, you drink water" also correct?

            Cause they put the word "dan" in there which means "and". Guess they just want to test that word?

                D and T in Indonesian is pronounced like smooth dh or th in English.
