Nearly three months Bill was in Indonesia , many ups and downs he experienced
Hampir tiga bulan lamanya Bill berada di Indonesia, banyak suka dan duka yang dialaminya
when shopping at the market for example , he deceived
ketika berbelanja di pasar misalnya, dia tertipu
He did not know that the traders usually offer their goods at very high price
Dia tidak tahu bahwa para pedagang biasanya menawarkan barang-barang mereka dengan harga yang sangat tinggi
However he did not regret it because if calculated by the pound or the dollar , the stuff still cheap
Walaupun begitu Bill tidak menyesal sebab kalau dihitung dengan pound atau dollar, barang-barang itu masih murah
One of the interesting impression of Indonesia is that they are friendly , lots of smiles and laughs .
Salah satu kesan yang menarik tentang Indonesia ialah mereka ramah, banyak tersenyum dan tertawa.
That which they talk about can anything , including family problems or domestic affairs of others
Yang mereka bicarakan bisa apa saja, termasuk masalah keluarga atau urusan dalam negeri orang lain
Everywhere Bill went , he always gets a new acquaintance
Ke manapun Bill pergi, dia selalu mendapat kenalan baru
No wonder that Bill quickly proficient in Indonesian
Tak heran kalau Bill cepat pandai berbahasa Indonesia
Another specialty of Indonesia , especially in Central Java , is that they are always relaxed , not hurried
Keistimewaan lain orang Indonesia, terutama di Jawa Tengah, ialah mereka selalu santai, tidak terburu-buru
Westerners slogan saying “ Time is money “ is not applicable in Indonesia
Semboyan orang Barat yang mengatakan “Waktu itu uang” tidak berlaku di Indonesia
In Java, people often say “slowly origin happen”
Di Jawa orang sering berkata “Alon-alon asal kelakon”
Meaning slowly does not matter, as long performing well
Maksudnya pelan-pelan tidak apa, asal terlaksana dengan baik
As in other major cities in the world , the traffic in Jakarta is not so organized
Seperti di kota-kota besar lain di dunia, lalu lintas di Jakarta tidak begitu teratur
This is not due to a lack of roads , but due to the always increasing number of eaters
Ini bukan karena kurangnya jalan, tapi karena jumlah pemakan jalan selalu bertambah
many residents of the villages and other areas come to the capital to look for a job
banyak penduduk dari desa dan daerah lain datang ke ibu kota untuk mencari pekerjaan
The roads in Jakarta so crowded that when Bill walk he often bumped into by others
Jalan-jalan di Jakarta sangat ramai sehingga waktu Bill berjalan kaki dia sering terbentur pada orang lain
In Bali situation tolerable . Bill dare to drive a car and not scared will happen accident
Di Bali keadaannya lumayan. Bill berani menyetir mobil dan tak takut akan terjadi kecelakaan
Bill satisfied with his first visit to Indonesia
Bill puas dengan kunjungannya yang pertama ke Indonesia
The acquaintances many and the culture interesting
kenalannya banyak, dan kebudayaannya menarik
But more importantly the desire to be able to speak Indonesian fulfilled
Tapi yang lebih penting lagi keinginannya untuk bisa berbicara bahasa Indonesia terpenuhi
All experience enshrined (lit. eternalized) in the photos taken during in Indonesia
Semua pengalamannya terabadikan dalam foto-foto yang diambilnya selama di Indonesia
