Hi, I have a external hard drive That can be detected in Linux (Igos Nusantara (Open source Linux developed by indonesia), However the hard drive can't be detected in windows. The hard drive format is ext3 /ext4
Can I make this hard drive readable in Windows?

Windows does not natively read Ext3/4.

So either an application like this:

Access Linux Ext2 and Ext3 on Windows with Linux Reader!

How to Access Linux Ext2 or Ext3 on Windows? Easy! Using Linux Reader you will be able to get your Linux files from Ext2 or 3 on Windows. And yes, it is free!

Or reformat it to NTFS.
Save your data elsewhere first, reformat, copy the data back.

You can also install a 3rd party driver like Ext2Fsd

Or use a portable app like Ext2explore (it's like the DiskInternals Linux Reader except you don't have to install it)

Right.
google for 'windows ext3', and you'll find several similar applications.
