I quote
" Local people from Java who come on holiday on Bali don't have enough money to go eating in Ku De Ta, Indo restaurant or others, most of them even don't use the taxis, because they are to expensive (they use the bemo or motor-taxi instead). Neither do these people visit the bars etc."
How the hell you do you know that they dont have enough money? Are you their accountant?
This is comment is rubbish (I did use a harsher word but was censored! hehehe) ...Im sorry I dont usually get annoyed by posts in here, but this does it for me!!! Becareful not to generalize too much about the Javanese.
There are plenty of wealthy Javanese out there that are richer than you and me combined. Oh and before you start with the corruption jibe, yeh sure there are the corrupted people (the balinese included) but there are some good "javanese" around (or are you going to tell me that good javanese dont exist?)
Or wait are you going to tell me your an expert on Javanese as well? Have u been to Java for more than a holiday? Have u lived here? If so please tell me if Im mistaken!! Would you believe everything the Balinese tell you?
The Javanese dont visit bars? Oh dear well then all the popular bars in Jakarta or other parts of Java must have ghosts as customers??? The Javanese love their bars, most of my friends go to Bali especially to go to all the clubs and bars!!!
Anyway this is enough for now, it just really annoys me when people put down the Javanese when they know very little at all. Most people think the balinese people are saints and can do no wrong at all??? What rubbish.
