Hi all,

Hmmm ....
Reminds me of an old saying: Ada duit, can do it. (i.e. have money, can do)

One has to bear in mind that it is increasingly difficult to adhere to/maintain esoteric values/beliefs in the scramble to earn a living and against the tide of captalism and its accompanying 'conspicuous consumption'.

Cheers.

In ancient time, father would give a kris to his son who had grown into an adult.
In the other hand, by drinking "bier", a boy feels as a man.
Perhaps, the pamphlet was aimed to deliver this combined message to the readers.
