I’m a bule, anthropologist & former mahasiswi di IKIP, Kalemareng (Yogayakarta).

I don’t find the term ‘bule’ offensive – all people have words for Others (purposely capitalised) in their languages. I guess it’s the way the word is used and the context as to whether it’s offensive that counts.

When I lived in Java, people did think I was rich because I was Australian and going to university in a foreign country. The truth was, by Australian standards (this was in 1995), I was incredibly poor as most university students are! I could barely afford to eat and buying any kind of new clothes was out of the question. I think that is the only thing that annoyed me a little about Javanese (and Balinese): the assumption that because I was a Westerner, that I was rich, when I was a dirt-poor university student on an exchange programs that had been paid for by my home university.

So, if I had one message for Indonesians: don’t assume all Westerners are rich.

As for Starbucks, KFC MacDonalds… Aduh!! Yuk!! Starbuck’s coffee is too sweet – made for American tastes and full of fatty calories. As someone pointed out above, in Australia, Starbuck’s is hard to find because it went bankrupt. Besides, we have a very cosmopolitan culture and Australians prefer to sit in a real cafe, not a multinational chain.

One thing I do find appalling are those tourist resort ghettos -like the Canggu Club- that someone mentioned above. I cannot understand why Western tourists go to a foreign country and then seal themselves up in these sterile ghettos, away from … people!! Why go to a country if you’re scared of the locals and don’t want to talk/associate/learn about them? Especially in Indonesia where people are sooooo friendly and welcoming?

But maybe that’s why I’m an anthropologist… when I go to Indonesia/India/Nepal/New Zealand the best thing is the people!

personally, i love cultural differences and love all kinds of food. indonesian, chinese, western, junk food, semuanya enakkkk kok. i appreciate all of them, mcD dan nasi becak included.

emang di banyak culture”bule” dianggap race yang superior sih, rasanya karena generalisasi, karena kebanyakan expat = well off, jadi dianggap semuanya kaya, sukses etc.
generally, people generalize. ^_^
menurut aku normal kok…sampe nanti mereka ketemu bule miskin, bule bego, etc (well…bule jg manusia kan?)

and yes, the cendana clan are also colonialists. I think they see that it’s a very effective way to control and manipulate people all the while making themselves rich and poweful, seeing as it’s been done successfully by europeans in our country for hundreds of years.

and I agree with you with the mall thing.. but then again, the westerners who do like to buy expensive stuff prefer to do so when they are in their countries or when on vacation than in indo. i heard the quality of the stuff that goes to indo is not equal to the same brand and model issued in europe or us. But yeah, i dont really care for that although i must admit i have several branded items, not because im a fashion victim but rather because i liked the model of the items i purchased and i purchased them because of the quality and how long i know it will last (thus saving me money in the long run by not having to buy the same item every year)

it’s such a shame that we have such a lot of products that can be a hit overseas but not many producers seem to care about it quality wise..
I agree, therry made some very good points about it..
