    War

    The price of WT Crude dipped below $100 a barrel today in response to the President's announcement that he will be releasing 1 million barrels a day from the United State's strategic reserve. "Experts" think that will reduce the price of petrol by 20 or 30 cents a gallon. Not a lot, I know, but...

    March 2022 final update no quarantine

    Give us a "heads up" on your husband's experience at CGK. If we book a flight it will not be until the end of May when school dismisses for the summer.

    We just got our second booster -- 4 jabs in all so far.

    March 2022 final update no quarantine

    Hope so, too; we are beginning to look for flights for a summer visit.

    What is the legal status of property inheritance for foreign heir?

    Americans, unfortunately, are not particularly healthy, plus we have a medical services regime that is, to be kind, second rate in comparison to our peers. Obesity is a common characterization of the life style of many; too many.

    LUSH Deleting Its Social Media Account

    "Delusional" comes to mind to describe those posting here characterizing themselves as using something other that social media.

    What is the legal status of property inheritance for foreign heir?

    You are also mistaken about life infirmities getting in the way of enjoyment once you approach age 70.

    Opportunites in Indonesia

    Best city to live in as a foreigner? New York City, of course; just ask any NYC taxi or Uber driver. Seriously, there is no one-size-fits-all answer. The choice absolutely depends on what you bring to the equation. Many from abroad have made their home in Indonesia. Perhaps there is one...

    Omicron

    The Pfiser and Moderna Vaccines are now viewed, from very limited trials as I understand, as effective in preventing serious illness from the Omicron variant, ie illness to the extent of requiring hospitalization. But this is preliminary, not 100%, and requires the two shot regime with a...

    Omicron

    I am not sure why the Indonesian government is doing a half-ass job of dealing with Covid, but citing "international pressure" is not particularly credible. My guess is its more in line with how the government deals with all issues and problems confronting the country -- in an indecisive...

    Quarantine back to 7 days starting December

    There goes the summer of 2022 visit; I guess we will be postponing visas and airline tickets for an additional 12 months. Then again, the current hysteria may fade when additional scientific research replaces hand-wringing speculation about the impact of the new variant.

    Vaccine effectiveness and Herd Immunity

    The British Medical Journal is a creditable source of information, and their investigation into mistakes and sloppy work at Pfizer's trials in Texas raises questions. But that's all; its not a smoking gun, especially given the statistical analyses of many other researchers as to the impact of...

    Vaccine effectiveness and Herd Immunity

    Your rant against vaccines as a threat to your children's health would be a bit more believable if your avatar was not smoking a cigarette.

    Quarantine Confusion

    Thanks for the clarification; all the family has had either the 2 shot variety or the J&J with a recent booster, in fact we all have or will have boosters by this summer when we hope to get visas. I am hoping that the quarantine is completely eliminated before the end of May or at least set up...

    Quarantine Confusion

    An article in the Coconuts Bali says, "In addition, foreign tourists are only allowed to enter Indonesia through Bali and Riau Islands at this time." Meaning to me that if you destination from abroad is CGK, you still must quarantine for 5 days. Is that correct?

    Quarantine no longer mandatory? YAY? NAY?

    Quarantine no longer mandatory? YAY? NAY?

    We lasted visited Jakarta in the summer of 2019. We now hope to get visas for the summer of 2022, but will forgo the opportunity another year, unless the quarantine requirement is lifted. We are are fully vaccinated with everyone getting booster shots this past weekend. Providing proof of...
