    Almost 60% of Muslim Teachers Intolerant, Hold Radical Views

    Of course I did - You can't argue points based on assumption. I assume Trump's mother had an unnatural relationship with goat but I can hardly argue the point as I have no evidence,

    Almost 60% of Muslim Teachers Intolerant, Hold Radical Views

    We don't need to assume there are radical elements in Indonesia because killings over the years make it very clear there are. The university has a valid point, that being extreme ideas are spread to the under-educated, making so many of Indonesia's poorest potential canon fodder for those at the...

    Almost 60% of Muslim Teachers Intolerant, Hold Radical Views

    I think you have to read further than assumptions. The university runs courses and seminars in anti extremism and has quite a little business from that line of work, and a lot of world attention. I wouldn't claim for a moment anything unreasonable is going on, just assumptions are a bit of a...

    I have no care about the beaches but I will be trying the food, and finding out a little about the local culture and environment.

    Almost 60% of Muslim Teachers Intolerant, Hold Radical Views

    The big problem with statistics is they tend to prove whatever the person quoting the numbers wants to prove. I found a hundred percent of people I questioned about this agree.

    Bandar Lampung

    I found the OP most interesting as I have a job up there. I'll only be working for two days but I may book an extra night in the hotel so I get chance to wander around and take a few snapshots. I'm wandering all over the country at the moment and I'm keen to see yet another place.

    Another Blasphemy Charge

    They'd be considered stupid because church bells are quite loud anyway.

    Latest Trump success.

    I'm amazed anyone is stupid enough to support an idiot such as Trump. Seriously, he's not an idiot, he''s a dangerous idiot, and one with far too much power. He's wrecking the US economy and he's ruining any credibility the US had in the world. He's a sex pest at best, possibly even a rapist...

    Or they could find an English native speaker WNI like me - but I have a nice job

    Latest Trump success.

    Trump did a fantastic job of calling a woman, "Horseface". Very presidential of him.

    How to obtain Indonesian Citizenship

    We were shoved into a room and told to write the letters. These have to be hand written in Indonesian with a stamp attached.

    Jakarta Odd / Even Days policy...

    This excellent odd/even policy is working very well with a notable reduction in Jakarta's traffic jams. Next should be a longer term policy of promoting small EVs then banning all internal combustion engines from all cities. Cross country travel should be excepted as EV don't yet have the range.

    KITAS is an immigration document, not a work permit.

    Fair and peaceful campaigning?

    Seems she'd just had an operation, but someone lied and said she'd been beaten up. No accusation, just mentioning what was in the newspapers

    This NGO is a legitimate group (known personally to me) that is putting people and equipment on the ground in the disaster area. Donations are very welcome.

    MobileIndo - A mobile phone shop catering for expats

    I used to live in Bintaro as well, just not in a posh a part, but I've moved as well. I also have a new job but I can't wear short and a singlet any more, even on my way to work. To the OP, I want a new tablet (Probably loaded with Chrome) but with all the translate features you get with the...

    Polygamy in Indonesia

    I met a few men with 2 or more wives whilst in Kalimantan - No one thought anything of it, seeing it as perfectly normal and acceptable. If it doesn't hurt anyone, why worry?
