The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

news.yahoo.com - Bali trying regain control tourists

"It seems that hardly a day goes by without reports of another tourist offending local customs on Bali. There are bikini-clad yoginis doing 'downward dog' poses in temple gateways and half-naked hooligans arguing with traffic police over their lack of a crash-helmet. While the world asks what's caused this sudden rush of inappropriate behaviour, travellers who know the island well are wondering why it's taken so long for Balinese to stand up and say, 'enough is enough!'

LOL, kicking out the Namaste-Fakers who wouldn't know Namaste if it bit them in their dysfunctional butt.

"Long-term expats say that it's amazing that tempers hadn't already frayed decades ago but the predominantly Hindu population of this island (lying at the heart of the world's largest Muslim country) are among the most welcoming and easy-going people on the planet. Finally, with patience apparently stretched to a breaking point, rules have been put in place to curb bad behaviour on the Island of the Gods."

Come back home. The 33% briths out of wedlock, record number of people on mental meds, and the "active shooter" moments that are now a fabric of your prosperous "record economy!" culture beckons you.
