Erina Gudono and Kaesang Pangarep are back in the public spotlight. The couple showed off their luxurious lifestyle while in the United States to prepare for Erina's master's degree at the University of Pennsylvania.
Their social media posts show the various luxurious activities they do. Starting from riding a private jet to shopping for expensive baby equipment in the elite area of Beverly Hills.
This show of luxury has drawn criticism from netizens.

" Seriously asking, if I buy baby supplies there, will I be subject to excise duty? " said @NaziaSulthanSh2.
" Sis, I'm an honorary teacher and I'm only paid 500 thousand, but there are a lot of demands for this and that, there are mistakes made by the ASN and the principal, it's heartbreaking ," said @mayyysarah29.
" Eating bread worth more than the salary of one honorary teacher. May their whole family rot in hell ," said @Ravikhiran7.
" I'm also really annoyed with this country! It's hard to find work, there are a lot of job requirements, I'm 30 and it's hard to get a job, the minimum wage is the same, houses are expensive, taxes are expensive, ONLY THE OFFICERS ARE RICH!!!!!!, " said @queenb33xox.
The revision of the Pilkada Law which is considered to be damaging to democracy is the background of public anger. Coupled with the issue of Kaesang who is said to want to run in the upcoming Pilkada, Erina's upload is increasingly in the spotlight.
