Multi-Purpose Vehicles

On the weekends, many villagers travel to the "city" in "dtek-dteks" which are normally used to transport workers to the rice fields. Once at the rice field, the front portion is disengaged from the bed and is used to plow the rice fields. For many villagers, these are the most common mode of transportation along with mortorcycles which are surprisingly cheap (by American standards). A brand new motorcycle costs only about a $1,000 and, of course, used ones are a lot cheaper!
