Inul contributes to the state
Inul contributes to the state
When I read in the newspaper and saw on TV the hullabaloo
about Inul, the singer/dancer, I remembered the mid 1950s, the
so-called Elvis Presley era.
At that time, the U.S.'s Rev. Billy Graham condemned the
dynamic and gyrating movements of Elvis Presley while he was
singing, labeling it an immoral act and urging the people not to
watch or attend Elvis Presley's concerts. Probably now the Rev.
Billy Graham would ask in disbelief "Did I say that?"
In my opinion Inul is making a real positive contribution
toward the economy and not just an empty talk.
I would tend to believe that her CD/VCD/DVD could be sold in
countries like the Philippines, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea and
Japan, thus will contribute to the earnings of this country.
Anyway, I believe that every individual should strive to be
physically, mentally and economically healthy so that that person
can stand firmly on their own feet and not burden society.
