Easy for you to say. You're not at sea for months on end, with infant children you've never seen, making our cruising lives comfortable. Yeah, I know it's not a bad deal for them, considering Indonesia's role in the global hierarchy, but the global hierarchy kind of sucks, don't you think?
And I did say there are a lot of contradictions in the whole Nation cruise thing.
