here a few days ago from a well known and respected Forumite. He hinted at a possible Indonesian perception of economic strategy.. simply put... If we make 100 dollars a head out of 10,000 tourists, lets charge 5,000 tourists 200 bucks a head and we will make the same money for a lot less work! Hope this will never be the case, but anything is possible. We have just got new quotes at hand, and 2 weeks in Bangkok is cheaper than 10 days in Bali.. strange when U consider Bali is quite a bit closer eh!
