Hi, i found a bird with broken wings on my backyard. I am not sure about the species. Maybe it is called burung layang-layang or burung walet in Bahasa Indonesia. How should i help the bird ?

Unfortunately a bird with a broken wing will not be able to survive in the wild, even after the fracture has healed. if you would consider keeping it then i would recommend to take him to the vet, if it is a simple fracture there is a special bandage that can be done to fix it.
