(Two photos: rice and smoked fish for sale in the Aertembaga Market in Bitung, North Sulawesi, Indonesia.) I was impressed the number of superficially identical varieties of rice for sale.

Fishermen, cooks, staff from local hotels and resorts along the Lembeh Strait, and ordinary husbands and housewives come together in a boisterous throng in the large open-air market facility next to the waters of the Lembeh Strait.
