Itu khan tanggung jawab penduduk lokal untuk memperjuangkan perbaikan nasib mereka yang tentunya bisa lu lakukan dengan sedikitnya memberi masukan pada wakil lu lewat tetangga lu si anggota DPR.
Tapi sebenarnya lu ini cuma tong kosong yang nyaring bunyinya, orang yang sangat menikmati penderitaan orang lain dengan pura-pura prihatin terhadap penderitaan rakyat kecil. Dalam hati lu ini sangat menikmati keadaan tersebut seperti halnya orang Parisi yang berdoa: "Aku bersyukur Tuhan bahwa aku tidak seperti mereka". Lu ini memang bangsat bajingan sadis yang menikmati penderitaan orang lain. --- In [email protected], item abu <itemabu@...> wrote: > > Kalo si Teddy sih pasti responsnya "ane kan tinggal di Sidney Australia, > salah mereka knp tinggal di daerah kayak gitu" dan "ane cuma ngomongin orang > kaya doang, termasuk teman ane yg jadi anggota DPR yg terhormat". > > > > > > >________________________________ > > From: holy uncle <holyuncle@...> > >To: NATIONAL <[email protected]>; MEDIACARE > ><[email protected]>; PROLETAR <[email protected]> > >Sent: Thursday, May 31, 2012 11:48 PM > >Subject: [proletar] Jakarta âslum tourismâ treads between aid and > >exploitation > > > > > >Â > >Jakarta âslum tourismâ treads between aid and exploitation > > > >By: Loic Vennin > >Agence France-Presse > >8:27 pm | Thursday, May 31st, 2012 > > > >JAKARTAâ"âI decided to experience the real Jakarta,â said a tourist, > >stepping gingerly between puddles of putrid water and a scurrying rat in a > >scene that would never make a postcard. > > > >Rohaizad Abu Bakar, 28, a bank employee from Singapore, said he could not > >believe his eyes as he wandered around the slum in the Indonesian capital, a > >jumble of hundreds of shacks, some less than a meter from a railway line. > > > >Nearby, a small girl picked up a discarded juice bottle in search of a sip > >while a man wearing tattered shorts lay slumped on a dirty old mattress. > >Only a blue plastic tarpaulin offered shelter from tropical downpours. > > > >So-called âpoverty tourismâ is on the rise in Jakarta. > > > >Organizers say it raises awareness and brings aid to the destitute of the > >city, but accusations of exploitation are never far away and critics say > >poverty should not be a tourist attraction. > > > >A few hundred families cram into the slum in the Tanah Abang neighborhood, > >minutes from gleaming shopping malls where the likes of Gucci and Louis > >Vuitton compete to lure the newly minted beneficiaries of Indonesiaâs > >economic miracle. > > > >Abu Bakar opted against the picturesque landscapes of other parts of the > >country to instead join a âJakarta Hidden Toursâ trip, which aims to > >show visitors the squalid conditions of the nationâs poor. > > > >âTourists stay in their ghetto.
