Mrs. President, please build local markets. The small business cannot compete with the supermarkets, while they can only contribute to a limited sector of our economy. I know that the contribution is huge, but it is still limited. It will be very nice of you, Mrs. President, if you can build roads to a small and clean market so that we can sell our products there.

Mrs. President, It will create jobs and provide sustainable food production. You can get a noble prize for that.

And I don’t mind if you steal the idea from me.

I’m sure your friend across the way would appreciate it big time if you checked it out, took some pictures (the mynah’s a heart-achingly beautiful bird), talked to the people there and maybe even wrote something about it.

What would be even more awesome is if you went to the conservation park that the foundation runs on Nusa Penida and wrote about that too, sort of like a sidebar.

Great blog post, by the way. Loss of spontaneity is often blamed on growing older, but there could be a host of other facts.
