patongphil Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Just looking around the streets of late I am beginning to wonder whether there has ever been an Australian come over here without wearing his Bintang top of sorts? Must be some form of badge of honour in surviving Bali. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NamKangMan Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I thought it may have been because of the Phuket - Bali - Phuket AirAsia route. Some Australians may have split their holiday beween 5 nights Bali and 5 nights Phuket, but a check of AirAsia's website shows that route has ended.

KarenBravo Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 "Must be some form of badge of honour in surviving Bali". More like surviving Bintang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Croc Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 OK, I confess. About two decades ago, I owned a Bintang T/shirt. (They were unique then) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ping Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I can't be much of an Aussie, then - had never heard of them before today. I'll have to keep a look out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenBravo Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) It's the Indonesian equivalent of Singha beer. It can be bought all over the archipelago and suspiciously doesn't need refrigeration to stop it going off. Getting a hang-over before you finish the first bottle is another sign.

NamKangMan Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 "Must be some form of badge of honour in surviving Bali." - I hope you are not referring to the bombings. That would be in poor taste, and I'm not talking about the beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NamKangMan Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) I think they look nice That should be a "Buntang" or "Bumtang" shirt. Edited September 11, 2013 by NamKangMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hanno Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Here in Cambodia, it is either a Hoc Chi Minh T-shirt, a Bintang, a Beer Lao, or a "Danger, Mines" shirt. All very original. Not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Croc Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Footy season in Australia is drawing to a close. It'll be wall to wall bogans wearing Bintang singlets in Bangla Rd when the footy club trips start. Be warned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishIvan Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Air asia flights out of Darwin to Bali and then Phuket will only increase the sightings of Bintang singlets and mullett haircuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songhua Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I see on average three or four people wearing Bintang singlets per day in Australia. Even kids have them. They're better than the 'I've Been To Bali Too' shirts though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NamKangMan Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Air asia flights out of Darwin to Bali and then Phuket will only increase the sightings of Bintang singlets and mullett haircuts You obviously didn't read my earlier post. I don't think AirAsia fly the Phuket - Bali - Phuket route anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
