There's so much Delta variant here in Bali, even with 70% having had the first shot of the vaccine and 18% both, that there's been bule flight - foreigners leaving for wealthier home countries where it's more under control. When I pay people for work, I frequently hear that they'll buy rice now. Made, the woman down the street who has a fruit and vegetable stand that she runs out front of her family's compound, not poor people at all, I saw collecting frangipani to dry and sell. It's used for its scent in soap etc. Those flowers dried used to be well worth collecting. We'd collect ours and dry them and we get a lot every day - and our housekeeper would sell them. But the price went down so far we just started composting them. No more. We've going to collect them again and give them to Made down the street.
