c. What's wrong in the text
In the second and fourth paragraph, it is stated that Sambal is infamous, well I say that it's not infamous, it is actually famous and because of its unique spicy sauce it is loved by many tourists.In the fourth paragraph, it is stated again that because of its infamousness that people avoid it, because I believe that it's actually famous and not infamous then tourists are the ones that are really searching for sambal, not avoiding it.
Talking about the tools in the third paragraph,the tool to make sambal is usually made from stone and not wood, the so called "Ulekan" when you search it on google it's commonly made from stone.
