    PO box / Package receiving service

    Is there a place that offers this kind of service in Jakarta? I want to reliably be notified when a package arrives for me, and bonus points if the shipping address is fairly simple. Will they do this at the kantor pos? JNE? Somewhere else? I've heard of this service at coworking spaces, but...

    Where to donate clothing? Moving boxes?

    I'm planning a little move in a couple days so I have two questions on things I've never known where to find. I'm in Bandung if it matters... First, where can I donate used clothes and other household items? I haven't seen any thrift stores similar to Goodwill, Value Village, Salvation Army...

    What is my employer not paying me and what can I do? THR, etc...

    I've been working for my company, a private school system, for a couple years and just now became aware that THR is very clearly required by law. I receive a monthly salary, all KITAS expenses paid, and private health insurance. That's it. I do not receive THR, end of contract bonus, any flight...

    Dispute with Tokopedia seller

    I've been mainly a lurker as of late, but I thought I'd share this to see if anyone has some helpful advice. I ordered an IKEA table on Tokopedia and it arrived damaged. It came in the original IKEA packaging inside another "box" (i.e. small pieces of cardboard taped together like a 5-year-old...

    Seriously though, what's up with Indonesia's infatuation with Nazis?

    This isn't anything new to me. I've seen Nazi stickers on motorbikes, heard stupid jokes that glorify Hitler and the Holocaust, scolded students for giggling and drawing swastikas, and there was even that Nazi themed hipster cafe here in Bandung. Today I saw a dude on the motorbike next to me...

    Gynecologist in Bandung?

    Asking for a friend. Of course she's looking for a knowledgeable doctor. But her main concern is a doctor who won't make her feel judged or uncomfortable regarding things like sex before marriage. Any recommendations?

    Still no sympathy for Indonesian taxis

    I rarely use taxis these days because I have my own motorbike. When I'm out of town I usually use Gojek, Grab, or Uber, usually airport arrivals being the one exception. Today I used a normal taxi for the first time in a while, and was reminded why they suck so bad. Dude took a wrong turn...

    Mobile issues

    I quite enjoy the layout of the mobile site, but a couple things I just noticed... There aren't any post # indications. A minor issue, but it would be helpful if that were added like on the full site. I can't seem to quote or reply to other posts... Perhaps the quoted post just isn't shown...

    What Indonesian bank do you recommend?

    I don't plan to do any complicated banking or investing. Just a personal account with a VISA debit card. I'm looking for convenience and decent customer service without ridiculous fees. Maybe transfer money between my Indo and US accounts on a rare occasion, but that's not something I really...

    Same jerk, new handle

    Hey guys, it's jason206. I gots me a new handle, one that I hope Puspa can appreciate. A forum that works - amazing concept! Glad to see this getting off the ground. Now let's see... Where was I? Oh yeah. Male circumcision. Perfectly normal and less gross than the alternative.
