Budget

We spent Rp. 8,800,000 or $988, (Rp.8,900= $1). The expense of this klenengan was about 30% above normal expense, as we handed out Lebaran bonuses to the musicians. (Lebaran is the holiday celebrated in Java at the end of the fasting month, and it is traditional to give bonuses to anyone who regularly recieves income from you.)
