Pasar Tebet Barat
Again, not in Tebet Barat. You'll have to go farther out. And yes, the way to find those places is to hire an ojek for a few hours and just drive around. Stop at the ones advertising and ask how much.- rabbit_39

cashless highway
Hah I mean gojek .:) I was only able to make the flight because I took Lyin' Air. Heheh Well that's just it, I don't own a car or even a motorcycle. I guess 7 years on and i am still the fool, still expecting that things will work as expected a majority of the time. Heck I've even been...- rabbit_39

cashless highway
I don't own a car, and I always take grab, gone or bluebird. I have found it difficult for the drivers to top up. Just now (and it isn't the first time) we have gone to 3 different Indo maret and none of them had a working machine. Most had no "tunai" to top up. And today I'm late to the airport...- rabbit_39

Aceh local Gov't plans...
What about the special allocation fund for Aceh, Papua, and West Papua? In 2017 they received close to 20 trillion rupiah, right around 1.5 billion USD. This is in addition to the usual provincial budget etc that everyone gets. I guess either we have been talking to different people from the...- rabbit_39

Government & Business
I've never liked KADIN, they "assist" foreign companies to do business in Indonesia with their own companies rather than growing the sector. But then again I've always been idealistic. My question is why is it required? So KADIN gets more members? More revenues from membership fees because...- rabbit_39

Online Hotel Booking factors
This is typical of surveys in Indonesia, only looking at a specific point of view and unable to provide impartiality when designing the questions. Leading questions, not allowing for certain types of answers, and directing the respondents to a specific outcome are all typical strategies of...- rabbit_39

Another silly bureaucratic hurdle from Indonesia
Agree with Puspa. My work closely interacts with all donor and development agencies. Individually there are many good people. Institutionally there are issues to be fixed for sure. Heck I know of a particular project giving a grant for something that cost 2 to 3 times it should take .The excuse...- rabbit_39

European ban on palm oil in biofuels upsets Jakarta, KL
That is the problem. The cost of making biofuels now are more expensive than the "single price" policy of the fossil fuel process at the pertamina pumps now.- rabbit_39

Cryptocurrencies
Back in 2004 ish maybe 2005 I was in the tech support world and basically a computer geek. At the time I was working for a company who acquired a company who was also making GPUs (S3 graphics). I saw how much better then NVIDIA stuff was (I'd been using NVIDIA's stuff since the Riva TNT...- rabbit_39

Road Frustrations.
Again I have to take exception that we can't expect people in developing countries to be held to the same values as people in other countries. Why can't we? Just because they are citizens in a developing country it means they can do anything they wish? Does that mean they are less intelligent...- rabbit_39
