    Ministry of Agriculture Announces Intention To Ban Dog Meat Trade

    I'm surprised the subject of eating whale meat hasn't been opened on this thread...I tried it in Japan and it was delicious...:hungry:

    Probowo for President

    This is the same guy who was a prosecution witness against Ahok and his testimony was accepted...even tho' he admitted he never heard the edited 'blasphemy speech' himself he said, from his position and authority, that it was blasphemy...... and Ahok got 2 years in jail. So much for fairness and...

    Probowo for President

    I watched the announcement on TV and wondered if this 75 year old will even be around for the elections next year...I hope Jokowi has a stand-by in mind. Mahathir of Malaysia is 93 but he looks reasonably fit.

    British woman slaps immigration officer for GBP3000 overstay fine.

    Although this incident happened last month and was covered here in the thread 'British woman slaps immigration over GBP 3000 overstay fine' it doesn't seem to have had any sequel. My understanding is she is still in detention but I cannot find any more news on her situation....anyone seen an update?

    Do I need my passport to fly domestic?

    When my agent (Retirement Kitap) took our passports recently we were given a slip of paper saying our passports were with Immigration...this satisfied the airline on a domestic flight DPS-JKT vv.

    Unmanned store opens in Jakarta

    If everyone followed your routine of only using manned check-outs etc., as you describe, what is your remedy for all those highly-skilled ATM mechanics/Robot machinists/IT technicians that will be out of work.

    Lombok emergency response

    I'm sure the Indonesian military response is there but they just don't advertise. Maybe they need a spokesperson to convey what action they take to all media. I was staying with my B-in-L in Jakarta when the Aceh Tsunami hit. He was General Commanding the Police Academy in Jakarta at the time...

    Where is the love

    The point is one cannot resign from the forum. I'm guessing it has to do with a number of members a forum has gives it some status...therefore S & P's only remedy is to stop corresponding with the forum...which is the action he wants to take so I suggest we just leave him alone and close this...

    Latest Trump success.

    This president's doctor, prior to him becoming president, has said Trump often wrote his own medical reports and he signed just to pacify him, and I presume got paid handsomely...https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/may/01/trump-dictated-doctors-note-harold-bornstein His previous WH...

    Latest Trump success.

    I wonder how this US Presidency farce will end. 1. He will never resign...far too much ego for that. 2. If there is a blue-wave in Nov. elections will the Dems vote for impeachment? Firstly, if successful, Pence will see the term out and will have the potential to increase his support for a...

    Aviation info.

    I wholeheartedly agree...it would be something for an examiner to take a cash bribe but when I heard they were all meth-takers for years and the Minister hasn't had a clue it IS time the International body did some serious investigation of Indonesia's Ministry of Aviation (Transport). If this...

    Aviation info.

    Re Dafluffs post #210 I just wonder how many others have manged to manipulate the Indonesian pilot licence system and are in the air somewhere. IMO It's time for the International body IATA to investigate the Indonesian aircrew training system from top to bottom. A good start would be to...

    Setting up a Sole Proprietorship / Usaha Dagang

    The royal WE isn't endemic to UK......wiki.......The earliest use of this poetic device is somewhere in the 4th century AD, during the Byzintine period. Therefore, none of the authors of the books of the Bible understood the unusual grammar as a "royal we". you must come from a newer...

    Latest Trump success.

    I agree with Waarmy...what has one to do with the other. It is true we have freedoms of choice and if one media, or team, or whatever is not performing, it will fail....just like any other business. btw your link doesn't work.

    11 Heroic Tips for Using Southeast Asia's 'Bum Guns'

    That may be a new idea but, during wartime, when I wiped my arse we used ripped-up newspaper on a spike sitting on the toilet floor. I wish we had those asian bidet sprays because I can tell you........newspaper is very hard on the nether sensitive parts of one's anatomy. That is why...although...

    Indonesia rejecting worn passports.

    Exactly what I've said. Your child checks in with the passport and citizenship as recorded when booking the flight and put into the airlines security system. The child then travels on that passport and citizenship. No problem. Showing the check-in that the child has dual and can therefore enter...

    Indonesia rejecting worn passports.

    I agree. What I said was if you apply for a ticket it is required to put on the application what citizenship and passport number you will be traveling on. If you turn up at the airport with another passport the airline will question that. I didn't say you will be refused the flight but it will...
