Pasar vs Supermarket

One day, I would like to catch my flight at 6.00 am

At that time, there was still no commercial airport in my hometown,

so I went to the nearest one

It took 2,5 hours, I started going at 2.00 am

Along my way, I saw many traditional merchants has brought their products,

fresh vegetables, chickens, eggs, chili, fish

They rode their bikes successively on the street

 They would come to one place, it's pasar

I could only feel amazed to see their spirit

What is pasar? 

We name a place to buy and sell various staple supplies is pasar

Pasar is identically with traditional thing

Ancient area, crowded, muddy when it's raining, noisy,

messy, smelly, and mostly are dirty

Pasar

Pasar

But hey....this pasar has been existed since a long time ago

We like to bargain each other

When the merchant says no, we keep asking, until it's deal to the lower price

Nice huh?

This is what I like most when I go to pasar

I meet old woman with kebaya

She will speak in Javanese politely
Kebaya : Javanese traditional clothes for women

Pasar

As we enter modern era right now

People has made innovation 

Luxurious supermarkets are spreading everywhere

They offer freshness, cleanliness, neatness, and completeness

And pasar seems to be abandoned 

Supermarket

Well, yeah...world has changed

I just hope that pasar won't be dissapeared

Why?

Because we can buy our needs in the very early morning,

while supermarket...we have to wait...averagely they open at 9.00 am
plus we can't bargain 

And I don't want to miss this food, as it only be sold in pasar
