    A Birdman, At Your Service! More Than 20 Years of Experience as a Driver.

    I don't need your services as I prefer to drive myself in Jakarta but your ad certainly deserves an award for most original! Wishing you good luck!

    Just bought the BYD and already dirty and scratched?

    @Jenny K , I have to question your intentions here. I personally don't care one way or another regarding BYD. But you sign up on this forum specifically to share about this 1 incident with a buyer? Why? Maybe now would be a good time for you to introduce yourself on why you signed up, what your...

    Global IT outage .. affecting flights

    Yes, Japan got affected too. Mizuho bank went down for instance. Korea presumably was affected too. China did not, due to the way they handle their own stuff and obviously not keen on using American security software.

    Wife divorced me in secret. How to prove it?

    I won't pretend to know better than a UK lawyer. If they say so, then that's probably your safest bet. It's a bit of finding a needle in a haystack but hopefully you will strike luck and get that document. My othet question is: if they didn't recognise your Indonesian marriage in the first...

    Global IT outage .. affecting flights

    It most likely will be fixed by then. The problem is coming from a security software for large corporations by a company called Crowdstrike. They pushed an update which made windows systems (so PCs and Servers) using this program to crash. Unfortunately, because they cannot be booted, it's not...

    Apprenticeship in Bali

    And more details here: https://flip.id/blog/program-g-to-g-jepang Seems quite complete, with a lot of expenses covered by the program, including 6 months of intensive Japanese lessons in Jakarta (with housing, meals and pocket money of $10 day covered). I hope these nurses you mention are...

    Apprenticeship in Bali

    There is apparently a program by BP2MI to train and send nurses and caregivers to Japan. Apparently it's a Government to Government program. More info on registration requirements...

    Wife divorced me in secret. How to prove it?

    Ok so you are married in both Indonesia and UK and from what you mentioned these 2 mariages are not connected, they are basically 2 mariages. There is already a divorce in place for your mariage in Indonesia but this mariage is not registered in the UK: so first, I don't see how you could...

    Wife divorced me in secret. How to prove it?

    That's not that simple. If the Indonesian marriage was registered at his embassy, then the embassy will require the court decision from Indonesia in order to change his marriage status in his home country. This is a must if a certificate of non-impediment is required in Thailand, which it most...

    Common but scary & risky diseases 🦟🕷️

    Not sure if that falls under risky disease but I just went down with a nasty case of Singapore flu. I went from feeling completely normal in the morning doing my walk around the compound to stuck in bed, with fever and bad body aches in less than 12 hours. After that first horrible night...

    Expatriate Cross-Cultural Adjustment Research Survey

    Good luck on your thesis. What I often found is that thesis are so anchored to their academic requirements that they are often completely disconnected from reality, with complex titles and variables that are not always relevant or practical. It's not easy to find the right balance.

    Supporting Expatriates - Survey

    Could you please give some more background for this survey? Who do you represent? A private organisation? The government? Please provide specific details. It would certainly help you getting those answers. As you can see, we are all a bit confused. For your information, this forum has a rather...

    Trend JKT; outside entertaining space

    But then again, when the admission price is around $12, what do you expect? We're talking about how crowded the place is, not how fancy, clean, modern, organized or safe the place is compared to parcs in the West or wealthier countries. A ticket to Disneyland Paris is nearly 10 times as much...

    Trend JKT; outside entertaining space

    Like every other amusement park in the world on weekends??

    Quality of Healthcare and Physicians

    Yeah, doctors here are hit and miss (often miss). Some anecdotes, off the top of my head: 1. That time I had the audacity to be admitted in ER with horrible kidney stone pain. I waited 3 hours in agony, puking everywhere due to pain, for the specialist to come back from sholat jumat 2. The...

    Buying Aircon units, advice needed

    Thank you for the replies. As suspected, everyone seems happy with one of the main brands. I'll probably go with Sharp inverter types, without the fancy ionizers.

    Buying Aircon units, advice needed

    Hi everyone, I need to install 4 AC units for the new house I'm moving in. I'm also bringing with me a Sharp AH-A9VEY (1PK / 2.64kW) which is currently in my living room and doing a decent job, although the living room is not very big. So I need to buy 3 more. I'm thinking of using the Sharp...

    Mobil Rakyat...new cars

    HR-V is definitely on the top of the list. Seems like a no brainer, so many on the road. But damn is it boring. And as mentioned, most likely second hand. I would prefer a higher model a few years old than a brand new entry market car. Terios/Rush, hard no. Too big, I don't need a 7 seater...
