Perhaps one may draw the conclusion from your observation that we are not only 'pussywhipped' but 'kiasu' at the same time.
We always want to treat our women 'right' (even if they're P4P) but at the same time we hate to be taken for a ride - if locals pay IDR 35.000 taxi fare from Harbour Bay to NED, why should I pay IDR 50.000? (as an example) |
Singkieu, so rare to see u posting on SBF...! Haha...
Yes, I totally agree with what u're saying.. i don't mind paying my fair share (I never take advantage of the drivers), but indeed I don't see why we should pay exorbitantly more than locals..
Eg Nagoya Hill to Sport Massage at 50k is ridiculous. Even cabs in Singapore don't cost $5.20 for a one-kilometer ride, and petrol is so cheap in Indo at abt 85 cents per liter...
Btw, it's now 60k from HBB to NED, not 50k... Haha...
