Re: BC-A
It is true.. however, culturally speaking, some of the older generations still consider free political and economic system as dangerous, because they will crush the weak ones.. while the younger generations are divided into two sides.. one side who believes in completely free system, the other who believes in step-by-step changes while educating people about the truth about freedom in politics and economics at the same time..
A mind set that has been implemented for years is really difficult to change even when it is proven to be wrong in application..

Re: Troosha
Yes, it does.. Many people, especially ones working for international companies, earn at least $200/month. However, the government cannot set the national lowest salary level above what it can guarantee and this fall the hardest on the factory and field workers.. They are the ones who suffer the most..

Until everybody feels free there’s no freedom until equality sets in through a free political and economic system. BC-A, Bill’s RJJst

Sounds like Indonesia has a ways to go…. $10/mth??? That must be a huge financial struggle for many people!

Ocalion - I have read that poem and it's beautiful. So Indonesia it is!! I'm excited cos we are neighbours. Yes the system has its pitfalls everywhere I suppose and I hope Independence is achieved both in the mindset of the people and the governing bodies. I think it begins there.
