In essence, it's the tradtitional houses that Indonesia really beats us 'coz their longhouses are big & a lot more artistic as was seen in my previous articles. Also, theirs are being preserved whereas ours are fast disappearing in favor of concrete houses.

Now I don't know how accurate I am about this but the Indonesian longhouses does signify them as more closely-knit since they live under just 1 roof whereas the Filipinos are more into having privacy per family, I guess.

*Eugene accompanied me here in Banaue Jan. 2001 prior to the S.E.-Asian trip I'm currently presenting on which saw Malaysia, Singapore, southern Thailand, Indonesia, & Brunei later on. My brother Rico whom you saw earlier was back in the U.S. at this time.
