told that they guys were Javanese is because they get blamed for everything. My friends are ALL Javanese or Sumatran, and I have repeatedly walked out of many businesses after hateful comments, or at the very least, 'you're friends are Javanese'. I am of the opinion that if they don't want my friends there, then they certainly don't want either me or my money there.
IF you don't think that this can only get worse after the latest bmbing you'd be unfortunately fooling yourself.
After the bombing there were many SMS's being circulated anonymously (of course) calling upon the Balinese to remove the Javanese. Remember the 60's in Bali? It has happened once, it can certainly happen again.
I'm damned if I'll sit down and take that sort of racism anymore.
