    Bali expat confronts moped riders on footpath.Vid.

    I'm tired of not being able to excercise what is my right here in Indonesia. Something as simple as walking on the sidewalk unimpeded and undisturbed by motorcycles is my right as a pedestrian .It is even in the Indonesian traffic law. When someone takes my rights away, you bet I'd fight for it...

    Probowo for President

    But when elected for the second term and he's not seeking other political positions he should be able to be free to choose his cabinet I think?

    Unmanned store opens in Jakarta

    I'd rather train the young men and women for semi skilled or skilled trade rather than see them wander around the store aimlessly. And useless to boot when you ask them questions .

    Mobil Rakyat...new cars

    Well up until 2008, the power train and drivetrain of the wranglers are quite up to snuff. They may cheap out on trim and cosmetics, but the engine is quite robust of a bit thirsty and the transmission, transfer case and axles are all good to go on rough terrains. Is it meant to go rock...

    Avoiding the Bali Airport Taxi Mafia

    I've gone as far as told the bluebird driver to move over and I drove the car myself. No joke. He missed the terminal 3 sign at soekarno hatta airport 3 times! The only reason I take bluebirds recently in Jakarta is the odd even issue. Otherwise I minimize their use and opt for gojek or grab. I...

    Do Indonesians say thank you less than others?

    I often say no worries, or no problems instead of you're welcome. It's common where I grew up. It was to make light of the effort I gave, that it was not a bother for me to have done something that deserved a thank you. Another answer that I use depending on who it is and the context is "any...

    You think there is a difference caused strictly by the pressure rather than the difference between paper vs metal? I wonder if I can experiment with paper using less pressure (but longer) on one cup and more pressure (but faster) on another. I think the effect of the speed is minimal if any vs...

    Like the able filter for the aeropress? Or the metal filter for the drip brewer? I always double up on any metal filters. Including the aeropress. @El_Goretto you had a metal filter for your aeropress right? Did it clog up on you?

    First major car accident in Indonesia

    I'm glad to hear that you're okay... want to preface the next sentence with that. Now,a bout the 75% damage, don't forget that it's not physical damage that they're counting. It's the value of the damage. for example if you receive a front end damage and for some reason it screws up the...

    Well to be fair, non dairy creamer contain fats and sugars. And they are by nature combustible. The "explosion" you see when you disperse the powder over flame is a phenomenon called dust explosion. Any flammable material when ground fine enough and then dispersed over flame in the presence of...

    And this one... Dripper ;) So had the aeropress rubber seal hadn't melted (what did you do, microwave it to preheat the whole thing??? :D) would you have preferred the Kalita or aeropress? Any thoughts on Kalita dripper vs V60 dripper? :)

    No more aeropress? Any reason? I'm about to get one with the standard stainless filter. Perhaps you're gonna end up saving my RP 790k! :D

    @El_Goretto, which pour over are you using? I'm going go try this folding one from Muniuqe (or something like that) since I've been traveling a lot the past 12 months. That and I broke my faithful ceramic V60.

    First major car accident in Indonesia

    Did you check the policy where it syas that? Often in Indonesia people just say things without any basis. Especially when it is something that will cost them something (money, time, effort, anything) . Even talking to the authorities you still can't trust them and you have to make sure you know...

    Mobil Rakyat...new cars

    You can still find SJ410s around, but why would you want them? They're still at least 40-50 million plus in good condition (is there such a thing?), uncomfortable as heck and way under powered. The SJ413 is the least I'd consider. Except for the looks, I'd consider the 4x4 Sidekicks instead...

    First major car accident in Indonesia

    @jstar I also agree with the tendency that the rich/bule/Chinese is mostly always assumed to be at fault initially. And of course, there are ways to reverse the situation and stand for our own rights. With all respect to everyone, while everything said is true about standing up for our rights...
