	Sago is grown all over SE Asia and is easily (and cheaply) obtained. The ornamental plant is toxic to cats and dogs. I hated it. Yuk.

	Just, in the interest of finding out just how wrong I am, I have found the 2007 United Nations Environmental Programme report about Indonesia. It is a fifty-eight page report regarding Indonesia and Sulawesi features so, without the knowledge I might have once I have perused it further, I don't hold out much hope of a bowl of sago any time soon.

	The sago ( the real thing ) was not wiped out by the 2004 tsunami though of course they were damaged where the water came up. Here s a 2014 paper crafted by some locals who should know what they are talking about. https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-981-10-5269-9_2 I do like rice but in the oriental style not the horrible product usually served up in the west. Sadly bad cooking is not something that has become a childhood memory :-(

	Those who understand the concept of capitalism will know that there is a big difference between subsistence and trade. The is a great deal of effort to take just to make me look wrong. Ah well.
