    Christian marrying Buddhist

    Ask the future Mrs Boxer to ask at her temple? I’m sure it’s relatively straight forward. I’m sure they have their equivalent of a KUA.

    Getting LOANS or KPR for housing as an expat

    Save your salary, purchase a property in your home country and use that to pay the rent on your property in Indo. If you have limited savings, the last think you want to do is invest in property here (IMHO)

    Getting Netflix here

    Is your region / payment system on your phone set to US or Indo ? I remember always getting an error when I tried to purchase / rent movies using my iCloud account / Apple because of the region stilll being in the UK

    Banking question for Indonesian citizens overseas...

    HSBC Expat account is managed out of Jersey I believe. Nothing to do with Indo at all. You still have to register NPWP and provide bank statement or utility bill as proof of residency before they’ll open the account. The initial deposit can be transferred to InvestDirect portal to buy and sell...

    Old Indovision Box with Smart TV.

    Firstly, I purchased a “AV2HMDI” converter from Tokped that required a USB power supply. It worked okay but not great picture quality. Secondly, I got my company to cancel Indovsion and put in icon+ fiber optic. Proved a winner as EPL moved to Vidio and F1 is now on Bein connect.

    Did Hamas use Indonesian Shifa Hospital as a human shield ?

    “” Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. “” I find it sickening and deplorable you would convert the deaths of innocent women and children into a percentage and use it as some kind of defense in a pathetic argument. Doctors Without...

    Did Hamas use Indonesian Shifa Hospital as a human shield ?

    I think you need to open your eyes to what is really happening in Gaza. No denying that Hamas is a terrorist group. However collective punishment is also a war crime and the UN stated that 7/10 didn’t happen in a vacuum. What’s currently happening is near genocide.

    Money transfer out of Indonesia (the other way). Any suggestions?

    Generally speaking, BCA offer a better rate when you transfer more than 5k USD. I’ve transferred hundreds of thousands over the years without a problem. I think transferring a few quid here and there then WISE maybe a benefit. Using BCA, I have 2-3 of their staff on WhatsApp I can contact if...
