your comparing apples and oranges here!
A local on any given day would / could buy there lunch for 5000-10 000 so if someone offers them 20 000 they aint doing too badly.
If you bought your lunch daily for $10 and someone gave you $20 and said go buy yourself something to eat you wouldnt be complaining.
I think its fair. Its the going rate.
I think that tourist can think very fondly of the Balinese or Indonesian race for that matter without having to go home skint!
