There's not as much poverty there, as portrayed.



And their children are better educated there... We baby our young, they make theirs work hard acedemically.



My Aunty was invited to a school there and put exercoses on the board her grandchildren back home in Australia were doing. The Indonesians kids laughed telling my Aunty they were way ahead of that stage.

Both the Philippines and Indonesia have beautiful skyscrapers in their capital city and a couple of kilometres away thousands of people living on fifty dollars a month in shacks with no plumbing.

That doesn't mean anything in Indonesia... They go around pretending to be poor and hide gold.



My Aunty lived in a village in Bali for 3 months and security walked around all night,... My aunty said to her husband to be, "why do we have security walking around all the time?" Manseur said, "protect the gold"



Smart people do NOT walk around looking wealthy in Indonesia or the Phillippines. ... They don't want their throats cut over a bit of gold or silver.

Tbh a lot of coastal cities in China looked better than this 20 years ago, plus it's always easy to fix hardware by building a few concrete high rise, but software(social, moral, GDP per capita etc) is the hardest part for a nation to tackle.  Not to mention Jakarta gets a really bad flooding every year b/c the locals dumped too much garbage in their own river.

Yep... they're pigs.



Singapore fixed littering with flogging decades ago.
