In Indonesia.

Average income: $200

Cost of living:
1. House rent (including utility bills): $65
2. Transportation: $10-$30
3. Food: $60-$100

All calculations per month, cost of standard meal around $0.64-$1.28 which usually you will get rice, fried chicken, some vegetables and ice tea.

I am also from Indonesia, specifically on the island of Lombok.

Average income to be able to live on the island of Lombok, Indonesia for one month: $150 (this is sufficient and is the standard minimum wage in Lombok)

Cost of living:
1. House rent (including utility bills): $48
2. Transportation: $26-$30
3. Food: $65 *standard meal around $0.3-$0.5 we will get rice with small chicken and chili sauce, with mineral water too.
