Some might consider it tragical, while others find it magical.
Lately I’ve been learning the fact that not all expats in Indonesia prefer local Indonesian women. Whenever they need to move to Indonesia, whether it is for work, business, or other reasons, some of them might brought their wives to stay here in Indonesia.
But not all expats fall in to those two categories. There were also expats who leave their wife at home, then keep their other wives here. Those other wives might be Indonesian, and might be not, just like that lady I’ve mentioned on the title.
Have you ever wonder, how much an other wife might get from their husband? An expat friend told me about her client which get about $5000 per month from her husband, while she might be a second, third, fourth or I don’t know, it very much depend on how many wives that guy have.
To think that the husband still need to provide their first wife’s needs, his other family members needs, and also his own needs, I think that $5000 per month amount is a little bit too much, considering that when I worked as an employee, I wouldn’t even manage to get that much money within a year. I was so curious that I asked what that lady supposed to do for her husband to get that amount of money every single month and my friend said, “Nothing. They live in separated apartments, so she just needs to be available for her husband whenever he comes, which is not so often.”
“Then what usually she does whenever her husband is not coming?” I asked again. My friend replied, “Enjoying comfortable home, visiting beauty saloon or clinic to take care of her beauty, shopping, chatting on line, playing games, having fun, etc.” Then I just said, “Wow!” without being able to say anything more, but thinking, “Like it or not, indeed such phenomenon really does available around us.”
