It's amazing how fast it can change a city. The Palu, I knew ceased to exist soon. The city screwed into exciting with vertigo Speed \u200b\u200bup in the spiral of our globalized world. came
As I again I could see whole streets only with difficulty. Painted house facades, new shops with luxury items and a lot Shell Hotel waiting for me. Even on the way to remote villages, I was surprised. All main roads will lead from Palu provided with center marks. A huge investment for a country in which these marks are only cosmetic effect.
feel all the pressure of globalization, all products of daily use are more expensive. The hardest hit by ordinary Indonesians, the increase in the two most important Basic needs of rice and gasoline. Despite huge subsidies to be raised here, the prices had to Rp 6,000 Rp 4,500 per liter.
Despite all the Indonesians complain because those increases, many have more money for luxury items in the bag. And if you have not, then the middle class helps with the inclusion of a small loan. And what are you
the money out eventually? It's simple: expensive cell phones, computers and sports and especially large motorcycles. Not that I just could not understand the latter, I amazed at how the streets could change in recent years that former "Luxury Motor" now normal-spread Middle class. The Upper Class is luxury cars that cost in Germany € 50,000 upwards. I even can find a BMW office in Palu.
Yes, as strange is the world. On the one hand, we think our assistants are rich, impressive, but on the other hand, they really using their mobile phones, all of whom have, many times cost of mine. And I know what they deserve, after all I pay for it.
Silae The Beach, a restaurant quite European standard, which is particularly noticeable in the prices down, even for a year at a hotel which is now nearing completion. A suite comprised half a floor, with fully glazed Facade on its own. This guarantees a panoramic view of the blue pool and the bay of brown Palu. A giant air-conditioning ensures that the sun is not window area with such a negative effect. I asked. Prices for one night at this hotel should be between Rp 1 million per night. The monthly salary of my assistant. Palu preparing to appear before on tourism. Near the Beach Silea I've found a new jet ski rentals, which is determined to be a hit for the adjacent pharmacy when they sold antibiotics in the brown water fallen tourists. Another attraction is a rental of cross bikes for the local highly demanding cross track, which sometimes differs only by the non-existent white mark on a normal street. But it is built. Everywhere you stuffed potholes with tar, stones or a small flag that is inserted in the center. The streets are safer. In the mountains you dig from the slope with heavy equipment in order to protect against landslides. Unfortunately, the work is being hampered by continuing landslides. A further
not entirely unpleasant effect of the boom are the many English courses that are offered everywhere. Unfortunately, these courses offer the same time not enough trained foreigners with whom you can converse in English, so happy in the streets for obvious tourist Lookout is kept. Unfortunately, despite extensive tells me my tan skin tone. Or is it my beard? Even my many protestations not save me in Indonesian. I like to exercise seen object.
Palu boom - and everyone wants to be there. A general motivation goes through the city. Also, it catches me. Tomorrow I buy me a cup white color and then paint me a center mark on my driveway. Exactly.
