For plain comfort, wear what Indonesians wear like cool sarungs and kains, and do what they do. Besides its most common use as a colorful wraparound skirt, a sarung is also an all purpose garment used to carry fruit or babies, as a baby hammock, to cover yourself while bathing, as a nightgown or bedcover, as comfortable informal wear tied over the breasts, as an umbrella, etc. Man-made chemical fabrics (nylon, rayon, etc.) are too hot and sticky, so just wear drip dry cotton clothes. At night Indonesians of all ages love to cuddle a long skinny sausage-shaped pillow, the bantal gu/ing ('Dutch Wife'), which looks like a punching bag.

This pillow absorbs the sweat so that you can sleep sounder while it delightfully fits the contours of arms and legs. In cheap hotels keep mosquitos off by moving your bed under a fan or by using mosquito coils lobat nyamuk) which are quite effective, slightly nauseating, and can be bought anywhere for Rp75100. If you lay your mattress out in strong sunlight, bed-bugs will vacate it. Take a mandi to stay cool, though if it's too hot it'll give you a headache. When you're hot, bring your inner body temperature up to the outside temperature by drinking hot tea; cold cokes just make you all the the thirstier. It's good to be out in the sun's torrid heat sometime during the day; it has a purifying effect.
