the less likely they get my business....
I have poured 10's of thousands into the Balinese economy
in the past 2 years- always happy to spread my money amongst them, but take note....the larger the vendor...the greater the cunning.
There are genuinely starving people ..yes...but has anyone noticed since the devastion of the bombs, there seems alot of people
with mobile phones, begging for your dollar ?
I would much prefer to pay double for something, when I can see the family want to feed and school their children first.
