Arisan
An ''arisan'' is a form of Rotating Savings and Credit Association in Indonesian culture, a form of Microfinance. Generally the ''arisan'' is a social gathering that takes place at a fixed interval (this being an informal social network this may be variable), at each member's home in turn. The rotating ''arisan'' holder (drawn by lots) receives payment from each other member and provides food for those members. In the course of the ''arisan'' the amount paid to other members will equal the amount received when the ''arisan'' is held. The ''arisan'' can vary from an essential form of credit in poorer social circles, funding an otherwise unaffordable business venture, wedding, or large purchase, to a purely social gathering for rich housewives with the money incidental (although the amounts can be considerable). As a source of finance it represents an alternative to bank loans and other forms of credit.Hospes, O. (1996). Women's differential use of ROSCAs in Indonesia. In S. Ardene ...

The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its us ...
