    Why so complicated to open bank account in Indonesia for foreigners

    It's coming. I don't know if you've been to China semi-recently, but everyone pays through their phones there. As a foreign visitor, I didn't have access to this this, so had to try and pay in cash. They looked at me like I had two heads - especially if I needed change.

    Indonesia to extend mandatory quarantine to 14 days for travellers from some countries.

    What an odd story. I'm trying to work out their bizarre decision-making. Maybe they thought they were going to quarantine in Bali, not Jakarta and freaked out? Thought they were being abducted? Perhaps I'm being too kind. Abandoning your luggage to spend a week going from Tangerang to Bogor...

    There's a lot to like about your post, but the bombastic poetry of this line genuinely tickled me.

    5 days Mandatory Quarantine for Indonesian and Foreigners Enquiry

    No one likes quarantine measures, mate - but they are important. Global pandemic and all that, y'know?

    Astra Zanica jabs at private hospitals

    Yes, I know of a couple of wealthy and connected queue-jumpers. (Fwiw I'm neither wealthy nor connected, but I am British, so enjoy a queue)

    DON'T PANIC.... well, maybe a little bit.

    It's OK not to read primary sources about Covid-19. They're written by niche scientists for niche scientists. Secondary sources are about our speed, where scientists explain data to laypeople like us. Tertiary sources are where journalists with no science background try to get things across...

    coffee lovers unite

    I haven't heard of peabody. Do you mean peaberry, or am I missing out? I agree with you about Bali coffee being underwhelming and I'd add Lampung to that category. North Sumatra is a good region. Have you tried any Papuan beans? Worth a go. I've also been pleasantly surprised by Flores.

    Info: Covid-19 Vaccination sign-ups for 60+ year old people.

    They're starting to sign up the under 60s in my area now. No idea about timeframe for the shot itself. Quick question - does one's NIK change when you move from spousal KITAS to KITAP? I can find my NIK from when I was on KITAS, but I haven't got around to getting my KTP-OA yet (I know, I...
