JAKARTA

Every country is proud of them. And everyone is interested in talking about them. In my country, many paces of interest attract a great number of tourists all year.

THE CHILD OF COIN

            When I hear name of the child's coin, I think those coins are very small. But I am wrong. The child of coin is child who swimming in the sea to catch the coin. Usually be located in big anchorages like the anchorage of Merak, Tanjung Priuk, etc.

             When I accompany my friend go to anchorage, because she will go back to her village is Pekanbaru. I knew lately about the children of coin. Over there, I saw them who were swimming to catch the coin. Usually coin will be threw by passenger of ship. Before the ship leave anchorage, the children of coin will be waiting under ship in the sea's coastal area with a half of their body into the sea and their head in the face of sea. Then when passenger throw the coin, the children of coin will dive to catch the coin by using their mouth.

              Usually the children of coin come from the child of fisherman in around coast of sea. I think they are very energetic to swim. Sometimes, some of them ask money of paper not coin to passengers, because nominal of coin more little than money of paper. In a day they can get money around Rp. 20.000 (twenty thousand rupiahs). My opinion about them, they are the best swimmer and they have strong body, although they feel cold when the rainy season, some of them still there stay in the coast of sea.

Vocabularies :

Anchorage : a place where ships or boats can anchor.

Sea's coastal area or coast of sea : a near coast or beach.
