The Bonjour Community System in Bali, Indonesia

• In Bali, Indonesia, there is the Bonjour system, where local communities, limited to a range of a hundred to a hundred and forty people, form small multi-family communities.
• People join a Bonjour upon marriage, while elders remain and are cared for by the younger generation. Each Bonjour has its own government representative for interacting with the federal government.
• Celebrations like weddings, deaths, and birthdays are community events in Bonjour, where money is pooled for expenses and decorations are handmade.
• The system is self-sufficient in policing its members, only involving external authorities for serious crimes. This structure promotes a sense of community, self-reliance, and cooperation on a larger scale.
