Ma'af, Tuan Bear, tatapi dalam bahasa Indonesia namanya tapioca itu 
sagu atau sago. Saya hidup disana kira-kira dua tahun dan waktu saya 
di Indonesia saya beri sago itu disana sering. Sago itu tapioca di 
Indonesia.

OK, translation:

Excuse me, (honorific) Bear, but in the Indonesian language the word 
for tapioca is sagu or sago. I lived there approximately two years 
and while i lived in Indonesia i bought sago there numerous times. 
"Sago" is tapioca in Indonesia.
