Dear Irma and other members:
We also support the family of my wife in Java every month. Everything has become very expensive and for most of the people its very difficult to cope with. If they already have an income, most of the money will go to
housing, food and transportation. Transportation has become very expensive due to the oil prices. Poor countries are first hit by rising oil prices. One of the things Indonesian people do to save some money is that families start living together in one house.
Now, talking about this subject, my wife is still not sure about living on
Bali. She is afraid that when economics go even worse, there might be
a `revolution` and poor people from other Islands like Java will come to Bali and chase out the rich and take over there properties..etc ...etc.
How big is the chance that something like this would happen???
Is my wife overeacting and do we have not to fear things like this.
And if not, why not?
We are not worried about terorrist activity because thats taken place all over world and more incidental. This is about bigger political and / or social movements.
regards,
Alfred.
ps. Would be interested also to know Berts meaning about this.
