As the represented person of Indonesian, I ask many questions to Yayang.
Holi
How old are you? When did you get married??
Yayang
Now I’m 23 years old. I have been married for three years. Actually she got pregnant and we got married.
Holi
It’s in Bali or other area in Indonesia, very common??
Yayang
Yes. I’ from Jawa, but it’s common to get married when you are young. Not like in japan, there is no choice to get abortion because of the religion.
Holi
I’m sure that everyone gets married and have babies here. When did you come to Bali?
Yayang
Compared to Japanese people, we get married when we are young. I came to Bali four years ago. It’s in 2012, I think.
Holi
What did you think when you came to Bali for the first time?
Yayang
When I went to the beach for the first time, I was surprised because many people have the bathing suites! It doesn’t happen in Jawa!
Holi
By the way, what do you do now? How long do you work?
Yayang
Now I work at a souvenir shop owned by my elder brother. When it’s early time, from 10am to 15pm, late time, from 15pm to 22pm.
Holi
It’s about 5 or 6 hours! When do you take holidays? Are they 2 days?
Yayang
No. There is only one day holiday in a month. There are only 2 shop keeper, so when one person take a holiday, I have to work all day.
Holi
Well, so actually how much is the salary for a month? Do you get bonus?
Yayang
My salary is about Rp2.000,000 (about 1,6000 yen). Bonus is depend on the feeling of the boss. Laugh
Holi
