    Suggestions for building a house

    If you want something done correct here you generally need to do it yourself.

    Will this system work for overseas tourists that get vaccinated in their home country? I know how anxious Indonesia is about opening the country to foreign tourists.

    The requirements to go shopping are not reasonable or logical. Vaccinated people can get and spread COVID-19 the same as non-vaccinated people. This seems like an idea someone took from France.

    The lockdowns are always implemented or extended throughout the holidays in Indonesia. Seems like the weekly lockdown extentions are just a measured and politically correct act.

    Moved to Bekasi

    After a few cases of local food poisoning I think you become immune. Like a vaccine, it takes 2 shots! :) Does anyone have an oppinion on this?

    183 day tax residence rule

    My guess is the tax office will suggest he pay his tax directly to their personal bank account or in cash when the tax guy visits his house. :)

    183 day tax residence rule

    It would be foolish as a newbie to be the trailblazer to something that longtime expats in Indonesia are not doing. My final answer.

    183 day tax residence rule

    I'm not sure if you are new to living in Indonesia but rules are not always real rules. My advise is not to rush to apply for an NPWP (tax ID). Watch and listen to see if other well experienced expats that have retired here get it first. Once you have an NPWP you can't undo it.

    183 day tax residence rule

    I don't think Indonesia will try to tax foreign retirees pensions. It's not worth living here if that happens.

    enquiry on legal marriage

    To answer the original question. I believe there will not be a problem leaving Indonesia but a problem could occur at some arrival destinations. The short explainantion is eventually you will need the register the marriage legally in a country for immigration, legal, and social reasons. The...

    FPI lawyer arrested over terrorism link

    I merely try to show some people how their democratic ideals of the western world are more propaganda than reality. The concept of everyone being free to practice how they want to live or dress in a democracy is all about the majority rule. I avoid Bali during the hindu nyepi holiday because I...

    France is a perfect example of majority rules oppressing the minority which was one of the points brought upin this thread. Or how about China oppressing and imprisoning it's morities? By the way, can you explain exactly what a caliphate would is and would mean here?

    Progress doesn't necessarily involve changing the rules. Progress sometimes means following the existing rules better.

    I think you are confusing FPI with the villagers that react crazy when people complain about noise from a mosque at odd hours of the night.

    Isn't this majority rule already oppressing the minority around the world? Example: What do you think about France's law banning of muslims womens modest bathing suits on the beach but allowing topless women. Seems like oppression to me.

    1. The other political parties are all the same. Just a different shirt. 😂 2. Are governments peaceful? 3. Prosecution can be a method of persecution. 4. Too many examples of crazy nationalist leaders these days to list all the autocratic governments. I won't mention them by name to protect the...

    If the system is changed democratically then what's the problem?
