    Nuclear submarines and regional security.

    It's more like a love triangle between the woman (Ukraine), her lover (NATO), and the husband (Russia).

    Nuclear submarines and regional security.

    Can you cite your source? All in the Western media is Putin saying this or that, often times putting his words out of context and distorting them. Most of the time, there is no direct quotation. For instance, what does he mean with "incorporating"? Is it absorbing the former Soviet republics, or...

    Mobil Rakyat...new cars

    Thanks jstar. Repainting it is not urgent, so it can wait, your information appreciated. I don't think I'll ever get rid of this old truck (2006 model) because it is the last model with CONVENTIONAL diesel engine. It's like some people who kept their old cars because it is a CARBURETOR gasoline...

    Nuclear submarines and regional security.

    NATO is still having cold war mentality (ever since the break-up of the USSR more than 30 years ago).

    Mobil Rakyat...new cars

    I'm planning to paint the truck bed of my Ford Ranger. Is there any locally produced paint? There are some imported truck bed coating on Tokopedia but all in aerosol spray. I'm looking for paints in gallon or quarts, and made-in-Indonesia.

    Bali deports expats

    Then someone must have reported on him, maybe an ex-girlfriend? Otherwise, he could pretend to be a WNI and they will believe him (without asking to see his naturalization papers). If he can afford to pay for his KITAP, then he must be doing good 5 years ago. Something bad must have happened...

    Bali deports expats

    I think the supermarket is heartless to let an old man work as a coolie, he should be given a lighter job like cashier or someone who welcomes customers at the front door (dressed nicely in batik). I believe he will not be deported if he was spouse-sponsored as he would have the right to...

    Customs Officials in KPK Crosshairs

    Yes, some have the same religion as me, and it's even simpler, just pray, confess your sin and ask for forgiveness. Voila! All is well and forgiven. But I don't believe in that because 1. how do I know God has really forgiven me as there is no direct confirmation from God, 2. I believe in karma.

    Indonesian nurses & caregivers as expats in Europe

    That's why I'm posting in this forum. Is there really job openings for Indonesian mine workers in Australia? I wasn't privy to his plans, I only learned about it from other drivers. Nevertheless, I asked his friend to warn him of job scams without sounding like "I'm not letting him pursue a...

    LKPM for PMA companies

    It's a hassle nonetheless, especially when there is a change of staff. The whole point is why this is still necessary when a company has been in operation for a number of years. Can't they just monitor the activities through tax filing and payments? LKPM should not be required for businesses...

    LKPM for PMA companies

    My PMA company has been in existence for more than 10 years. Every quarter, we have to file 'Laporan Kegiatan Penanaman Modal' or LKPM with the Ministry of Investment or BKPM. I think this is a waste of resources, and completely unnecessary. If BKPM wants to check the existence of a business...

    Indonesian nurses & caregivers as expats in Europe

    I remember many years ago, hundreds of Indonesian nurses were "expelled" from the Netherlands due to "incompetence"? Incidentally, our company driver is applying to work in Australia as a truck driver or heavy equipment operator in the mining industry. He is paying around a hundred million...

    New NIK (is that normal?)

    Are you sure it's linked to BPJS? Mine's not, I believe foreign workers use their passports, not NIK.

    Government Regulation no. 18 of 2021 - Right to own an appartment

    Apartments are non-landed properties, to say “foreigners can buy land and apartments” is inaccurate or misleading. To avoid misunderstanding, the law should merely state “foreigners can buy apartments” without mentioning the land. Indeed, each individual unit will own a tiny portion of the land...

    The Second Home Visa Impact on Ex-WNIs Thread

    I see there is a column for Companion, does that mean 2 billion rupiah includes your wife and children? How about if you have 5 kids (Companion space only for 3)? So 1 person, or 1 family, the same amount?

    Indonesia Second Home Programme - All Retirement Stay Permits Abolished and Existing Holders Scheduled for Expulsion in Case of Non-Compliance

    Could this program been rolled out in a rush just in time for those who wish to escape winter in Europe? You know, gas and electricity crisis causing extremely high cost of living. And Ukrainians fleeing the war too.
