Tourist Invasion (Hello, ALL, I am new here! )

Tweet

One of my favorite places to travel is Bali. My husband and I went to there for our honeymoon five years ago. In Bali, there are so many beautiful sign-seeing places and foreign owned businesses such as resorts, restaurant, recreation and designer stores. It is a heaven for tourists/ foreigners. Some of the tourists from US, Japan and France were so attracted and even decided to stay. I was once jealous about Balinese. The Reality is most Balinese may not ever have a chance to eat at those nice restaurant in their lifetime. A meal may cost a normal farmer's a month income. If you look closely, you may start having a feeling that Bali looks like a time shared condos at Aspen which owned by multiple foreign countries. 90% of the beautiful recreation places we see on the street are just working places for them to serves these rich foreigners. The beauty of nowadays invasion is we don't need weapon and it is silent. Instead of gun and army, the riches use money to conquer. In the old days, people may call it class system, racist or slavery, now we call it business which sounds more "mutual" and "fair". Does it mean world can finally live peacefully? My husband always say to me that "I think too much", but couldn't help but worry that there are too many foreign invasions or business trading carrying out everywhere in the world everyday. Is Money the most important thing? But then again, who we are going to blame within this mutual business relationship?
