    They are playing at JIS in North Jakarta. I have had a few mates go and watch some games based on their Instagram stories.

    Gundala: Indonesian Movie Review

    Wasn't there talks of there being a sequel? I had caught it when it was on Netflix and I found it actually good.

    An El Niño year…. 🌞

    109 F(42+ C) the last two days at 5pm in the Dallas area. Funny thing is, coming from Jakarta, it doesn't feel too bad.

    Back as an upper-middle income country, but will Indonesia be trapped there?

    No one is saying anything about inside, but outside. I know people who aren't from Indonesia, but are from Muslim countries and they say the speakers aren't as loud as they are in Indonesia. Back in 2016, there was a case where a lady got charged with blashemy for cutting the cables to the...

    So why play the loudspeakers so loud or have the even prayers coming on TV? What about the Friday prayers where they sound like karens who are demanding to speak to the manager? I remember @Nimbus talking about it in some post/thread long ago about how some of it has to do with getting people...

    SMA IGCSE/a level teacher - SMP Native conversation

    IELTS 6 is the lowest I have seen for that particular test. 6.5 is about the average now. for university. Some US schools and their requirements. A lot of this have changed as before either TOEFL or IELTS was required. Now, they are even taking Cambridge IGCSE scores. With testing centers shut...

    Is a spouse-sponsored Kitas/Kitap really worth it?

    You do realize that they have been changing their mind every 2 months recently and with a new president, there are going to be even more changes.....all fully legal and blessed by the government.

    Will you allow online teaching or do they have to reside in Jakarta?

    Back as an upper-middle income country, but will Indonesia be trapped there?

    This is my take on EF as the company based on my experience and what I saw and heard to go along with the post I had shared. I enjoyed the kids I taught and the people I worked with(well most of them), but the company as a whole, not so much. On LinkedIn, you can do a job search by city. EF...

    Back as an upper-middle income country, but will Indonesia be trapped there?

    Yes and no. It all depends on the school and what the expectations of the teachers are. You also need to factor in the tuition cost, enrollment, target audience, and curriculum used. A school like JIS or SPH do pay good, but some for the smaller International and National Plus schools, they...

    Or they are just given some type of device to play with*. *Not limited to just Indonesia.

    Back as an upper-middle income country, but will Indonesia be trapped there?

    Just getting teachers to consider coming to Indonesia is a struggle. Majority of the time China, South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, and the Middle East is where people are going. If you go to reddit, it is the same thing. No one talks about Indonesia. Even companies like EF where precovid, China...
