    Nuclear submarines and regional security.

    Talking about export. Thanks to The Greens and people like mr. Flowerpower diatas advocating against nuclear power, Indonesia's coal exports to Europe have reached an all time high. Thanks. As Thomas Sowell says: There are no solutions, only trade offs. Quite ironic that The Greens chose...

    Nuclear submarines and regional security.

    As much as I agree with you that Fukushima was in several ways a total disaster, nobody died as a direct result of the Fukushima nuclear disaster. However, in 2018 one worker in charge of measuring radiation at the plant died of lung cancer caused by radiation exposure.

    Nuclear submarines and regional security.

    You wonder how realistic his thoughts are? There are currently 440 nuclear reactors operational in the world, providing 10% of the world's electricity and the last deadly disaster (meltdown) was almost 40 years ago and killed around 40 people.

    new podcast: Indonesia's Defence Dilemma

    Thanks for the link, interesting read. Allow me to quote: I do not understand why some people keep downplaying the atrocities committed by their country (by comparing it to Russia, China, and North Korea.)

    UK Election 4 July 2024

    It is no surprise to those who have been following the situation that Russia has invaded Ukraine. Putin has indicated several times over a longer period that Russia does not want NATO on its doorstep. As Balifrog pointed out, Macron and Merkel were against NATO's expansion into Ukraine in 2008...

    Tourists ILFIL

    I think they do this on purpose. Extra bikes parked in front a shop or warung gives the impression that there are many customers (so the place must serve good food/sell good stuff.)

    America Producing Dumber College Students

    Biden is just another politician, just like so many of them. Expressing concerns but in the meanwhile shipping loads of weapons to allow the disaster to continue. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/06/israel-weapons-sales-loophole

    Married abroad, mixed religion, with one party being Muslim must now be registered at KUA, and the other party must convert.

    EV in Indonesia

    Whatever it is going to be, in all likelihood daddy will 'get another cigar from his own box' for his birthday this year. But that is okay.

    Internet speed

    Building a strong army doens't mean you are a war monger. Rather you need strong armies to prevent war; to deter your enemies from attacking you. Look at Ukraine, they gave up their atomic weapons and Putin attacked them, thinking he could easily invade them and take over control. Wow. The US...

    Looking for a good Indonesian girl.

    Sounds like a story I once heard where a 20 year old something spiked a man's drink to rob him and he died from an overdose of whatever. I knew an old and toothless 'makelar' who drank special jamu to get some action with his missus again after a long time. Little did he know that it was not...

    Looking for a good Indonesian girl.

    I live in East Java in an area with many Madurese people and I know many of them. I'm sure many can laugh at the description given above and I find that one of their strengths. My wife is Javanese so I cannot help confirm or debunk the legend but I do think those jamu's are fun to try out.
