Jakarta's new Hobby...NGANTRI...

Photobucket

Do you ever think that Jakarta people are really like to queue? I could say that Jak people are easily attracted by crowd. If they see some place fulled with people standing neatly in a long queue, they will try to join it no matter how long and how much time they would spend.

We see previous "booming" events in Jakarta when the early opening of the delicious smell Breadtalk and J.Co, are only last few years, after that, no line anymore in the store..

And now, the "newcomer" existed in Jakarta, Which is Sour Sally. I can't think and feel any satisfaction of standing on a long long long queue just for buying a cup of Frozen Yoghurt. Where is the worth of it? Wasting time just for satisfying you tongue with sour and cold thing. jeezz... Plussssss, The people in the line are more patient because of BlackBerry on their hand. Let's see how long the line would last in Sour Sally.

Well, I think Jak People do not want to be out dated. They want to know and experience the things which are trendy at the moment. Not only foods, the musics and gossips are also the same. That is why gossips and musics shows that report the newest songs and gossips can be seen everyday on various TV channels.

Ironically, not only High Income Jak People who queue in a long line, but also the low incomes. The difference is only the purpose of the queue. The low income ones are queuing in order to keep living. They do not have enough money to stay alive for tomorrow, so they stand in a line to get the Foods distributed by Government.
But, the High Income ones are queueing for only a cup or a box of "luxury" foods.

So, Are YOU one of the "dots" in the "line"? Do you have the same hobby with the other Jak Citizens? en
