          "Sore" is indicated to mean "afternoon/evening" and "malam" is indicated to mean "evening/night". So why is sore wrong, if there is no further context? And from which point in time do you use one, or the other?

                Why was "Selamat malam, assalammualaikum" wrong?

                  Assalammualaikum is especially for muslim, not indonesian. Because mostly people indonesia is muslim so they say assalammualaikum
