1 USD is 16.7K IDR today. holy moly, that's worse than i thought. if a single US dollar could get me a fried rice (nasi goreng), then we are cooked as an Indonesian. For your info, A programmer job in Indonesia has a wages around 5M IDR, Which is basically $300 USD **per month** (i am not exaggerating at all). Now if we compare the wages on the same position but in USA, They're around $1100 or $2000~ (after taxes), **5 times more bigger than what we got in Indonesia**
we are SOOOO BACK
I couldn't fathom the fact fhat 5.27$USD is now at around 87.8k IDR enough for having 2-4 meals for a day.

you can describe something else, but exaggerating it over the top is cringe.
