Quote of the Day

Apparently, sex with foreign tourists is a big boon for Indonesian men who trade their bodies for financial gain. But a recent crackdown on a Bali beach led to the arrest of 28 people..as well as this awesome quote.

Police on Indonesia’s resort island of Bali detained 28 people this week in a crackdown on “beach gigolos,” who scout for foreign female tourists, officials said on Tuesday.

The raids began on Monday after the release of a trailer for a documentary on Bali’s ‘Kuta cowboys’, the muscular and tanned Kuta beach surfers who develop short-term romantic relationships with foreign women in return for gifts.

‘Cowboys in Paradise’ follows the trials and tribulations of several beach boys, their families and their female patrons.

The documentary’s Singapore-based director, Amit Virmani, said he found the arrests deplorable.

“A witch hunt for men with tanned and muscular bodies on the beach is the last thing anybody wants,” he said.
