    Second Visa Stamp after re-entering Indonesia on a 2nd home visa

    😅 The first baptism is usually held when someone was still a baby. Because this is beyond control of that baby, comes the 2nd baptism. The second one is a confirmation if that (young) adult someone still wants to stay Catholic.

    E32A AKA Disapora Visa

    I don't know if many foreigners will want to buy property with all plus minus, cultural, political, and economical situation Indonesia has. But the buying power of people from developed countries is certainly bigger than most Indonesians. If WNA are allowed to have Hak Milik over properties in...

    Cold cuts in Malang

    They say "mandi" but they actually mean "swim". As "mandi di sungai", the initial purpose is to go to the river to bath, but children/young people end up swimming/playing in the water. It's a term mistake that people has been using since long time ago and they never bother to correct it. I also...

    Cold cuts in Malang

    Water is really attractive but many Indonesian can't swim. No swimming warning is placed mostly because waves in the southern part of Java are big and can drown you easily even if you are a strong swimmer. Mostly no lifeguard/s or lifeguard post either.

    iPhone 15 to Indo....

    An Indonesian passport holder is considered not a tourist. Even if she lives abroad and comes to Indonesia just for visiting. When she arrives in CGK, she should go directly to Immigration booth to register her IMEI in order to use her phone with Indonesian number. After registration, she gets...

    Waste Management in Indonesia

    Agree. But it might work only for some group of people. Imagine poor people that will choose jail over penalty. Or rich people that will just pay and do the same offense because they can. While the middle group is the smallest group from three (in Indonesia).

    How to obtain Indonesian Citizenship

    Thank you Marcus! (y) No.9-20 sound like Penataran P4 to me :sneaky:. There's no immediate plan to apply, but I said to my husband that he should learn and I will give him a test :ROFLMAO:.

    Cold cuts in Malang

    Quiet places are quiet because there are less people stay there. Less people stay there because there are lack of facilities. They go hand in hand. Do you feel you are a nomad? Then may be it's not a bad idea to travel around Indonesia/the world until you find what you look for.

    Cold cuts in Malang

    I counted that as 90 mio per month for 2,5 years (36 months). Ok, no more replying in this forum while cooking. My mistake, sorry for that! I consider this price is normal, although I think you can still bargain it.

    Cold cuts in Malang

    Other perumahan: Riverside & Graha Kencana. These two are located more to the north part of Malang along with Araya. The other previous three are on the west. I think water & electricity cost the same all over in Indonesia. Everyday food from market/supermarket in Malang & Jakarta cost almost...

    Cold cuts in Malang

    If you expect Veluwe National Park quietness, Malang is not the place anymore. Batu gets crowded over years with amusement parks. I had an idea to live in a village in Lawang, but the traffic on the main road/Singosari is often a nightmare. There are some quiet places nearby the foot of Gunung...

    Do Indonesian hospitals keep citizens until they pay their bill?

    Probably not indefinitely. Long time ago, the hospital will try this way to "force" or "scare" people to pay because the longer they stay, the bigger the bill. When people leave the hospital without paying, it's hard for the hospital to collect the money and it's not a case that they will bring...

    House Construction Questions

    That's overkilled indeed. Is it possible you are asked for it because the building floor coefficient is far greater, or the height of the building higher than the other houses in that area? I remember years ago when the local government of Bali set the "height of palm/coconut tree" as the...

    Autogate for KITAP holders..?

    When we arrived in Indonesia last month, I went through autogate and my husband through normal counter. I was so busy looking at the camera I didn't notice the gate had opened 😅. When we left, the gate didn't open for me in my first effort. I had an officer told me to step back and tried again...
