Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread

Our dinner at Nagoya Hill Mall...




Dinner was free for me,hehehe...costing around 300k for 4 person. (friend wants to eat,so i just follow...and i didnt expect him to pay for my dinner for 2,hehehe...).

During a walk at the mall,i notice something...


Yes,a job advertisement from a certain retail shop...I think most of us here reading in this thread MAY BE NOT qualify to earn 2.5 juta a month with the requirement stated,hehehe....

Notice how difficult it is for Indonesian above 35 years old to get a proper job that pays well enough now? But one thing for sure,i have never once think that Indonesian are poor people. They just don't earn as much. In fact,their poverty level were way lower than China,base on statistic (less than 10% of Indonesia live below poverty level).

My calculation is base on, (example) while "i" may earn 30 juta a month,but my living expenses in Sillypore took up more than 80% of my total monthly income but in Indonesia, some Indonesian may earns about 3 juta a month but their cost to live is only maybe 50% of their total earning. So,who is richer at the end of the day?

Anyway, this is just my own thought during this trip. There isn't as many poor people in Indonesia than what I think there should be. Their quality of life may be lower, but definitely most Indonesia aren't POOR.


It's just a viewpoint of my own. Another reference below :
