Danger Alert for White Men in Bali: Avoid these High-Class Bule Hunters from Jakarta!

Written by Hater Skelter

Start by picturing in your mind’s eye the typical appearance of a bule hunter in Bali. 

From Canggu to Ubud, wherever the bule men go in Bali, you can see these women lurking about. Mostly coming from poor areas of Java, these exotic-looking women have dark skins, and most of them are so tiny, probably because they suffer from malnutrition due to poverty. 

They also do not speak English well. Many bule men like these women because they are so easy to control and they won’t talk back (they surely will start having trouble looking for the right English words every time they start arguing with their boyfriends). Conventional white men who have a hard time finding women in their Western countries of origin go to Southeast Asia to find these submissive gold diggers whose sole objective of dating/being in a sexual relationship with these men is financial survival.

Therefore, when you think of these bule hunters, you will usually think of poverty. You might even sympathize with some of them. The dominance of white men over Southeast Asian women here highlights the two-pronged legacy of postcolonialism: (1) the huge wealth gap between Western countries and those in the global South; and (2) the superior social status of white people (especially men in this context).

However, since the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020, more and more Jakartans have relocated to Bali. Including some high-class bule hunters. 

They mostly come from middle-upper class families and are highly educated, therefore speaking English well (too well, as a matter of fact, to the point that they start speaking English with their fancy American accents to their fellow Indonesians or when they order their food. Excuse me, can I have a plate of nasi campur please? Sorry, I don’t speak Indonesian that often. I speak English most of the time). 

Most of them have either remote full-time jobs or freelance projects, which allow them to work from Bali most of the time. Furthermore, unlike their darker-looking, poor Malay counterparts, most of these women are Chinese-Indonesians with fairer skins. They definitely do not lack material wealth. If anything, they can simply go back to their Moms and Dads if they find themselves jobless.

But they are materialistic as fuck. They are also more high maintenance and entitled and a tad more annoying than their fellow gold diggers from poorer backgrounds. This is why, although these women come from middle-upper families and still have jobs, they can cost you a hell of a lot more money than the poor women from Java, and here’s why:

1. They will only eat in nice cafés and restaurants (and, of course, you’ll be the one paying for it!)

Of course, just like any Asian female gold diggers in Bali, these women come with a price tag. When you date them, you will have to pay for everything and support them financially. However, unlike their poorer counterparts, don’t expect these amoys from Jakarta to cook your lunch and dinner and serve your food for you. Now that these high-maintenance women have started to date you, a bule man, they will expect you to take them to eat out in nice, air-conditioned cafés and restaurants all the time. 

I know at least one of these Jakarta bule hunter women who expects her boyfriend to take her to have a berry pancake and hot cappuccino breakfast in a café every morning, which can cost you at least Rp 200,000 (US$12.2; that might seem cheap to you with your Dollar earnings, but imagine doing that every day)! And now that these women have tasted a bule cock, they will no longer accept eating in an authentic Indonesian restaurant. They will only eat super-bland (and yet super-expensive) Italian foods or hamburgers daily. And this is somehow related to the next annoying thing about them:

2. They’re super finicky

Did I mention that these high-class bule hunters will only eat in air-conditioned cafés and restaurants previously? Yes, I did! They have come all the way to Bali to find a walking credit card but at the same time they do not want to let go of all the things they find comfortable about living in Jakarta, including its air conditioned rooms. 

And let me tell you, these women also have a very low tolerance for discomfort. Even when they have already walked into an air-conditioned room, they will start complaining endlessly if they find that the AC is not cool enough and just how hot it is. They have moved to Bali to stay here long term, but still complain daily about how hot it is? Go figure. 

These women are also particularly finicky about their food. Instead of just accepting the kind of food served on the menu, they always want to “modify” their orders, which can be an extra hassle for the waiters/waitresses. Oh, please make my pizza with less cheese, extra rucola, and an additional jalapeňo. Make it spicy, but not too spicy…

What the fuck. You’re not even the one who pays for your food; what right do you have to be so fussy about it?

And this is related to the next trait of these women, which might embarrass you when you go out with them…

3. They’re super entitled and aggressive (and they have no problem displaying it in public places)

These women are still very entitled even though they’re not the ones paying for their food. They will start complaining loudly if they wait too long for food in restaurants. Or if the staff does not respond to them quickly enough. Or if they don’t like their food. I even saw one of these amoy bule hunters complaining loudly in an Italian restaurant in Canggu (why do all of them seem to like Italian restaurants) because she found her pasta too hard.

“This is not how you cook pasta – I can do a much better job than you! In fact, I can show you right now how to do it properly!” she said to the waiter, who stood silently while nodding his head. After the waiter returned to the kitchen, she complained loudly: “Useless people! Why do they work in an Italian restaurant if they cannot cook Italian food properly!”

Yeah, let me tell you, these women are even more aggressive than their White boyfriends who as a matter of fact pay for their food.

Sometimes I wonder how come these high class bule hunters from Jakarta can be so entitled and aggressive and why they still want to suck their partners dry when in fact they themselves come from a pretty good economic background. Probably they are indeed very good in bed, true to the fantasy that White men have thanks to countless numbers of Chinese prostitutes portrayed in Hollywood films. However, if you don’t want to be embarrassed in public and have your Dollar or Euro savings run dry, you better try a Russian honeytrap. Remember that you have come to Asia to enjoy a cheaper cost of living, not to be bled dry by some high-class gold digger!
