    Home tomorrow.

    Just finishing up another 12 day stay at the Siloam Hospital in Lippo Village. A very good hospital and excellent staff. Doctors have put me back on my feet again. If anyone is curious, I can vouch for the good folks here.

Amongst other information about the school, they said that it was mandatory for all students to attend Bible class every week. I asked them how did they fit that with non-Christian...

    Where have you worked in Indonesia?

    Yeah, my line of work placed me in locations (too numerous to mention) scattered throughout the width and breadth of Indonesia. Luckily, most were long term projects (as opposed to the odd spot charter for a few days) so I was able to see firsthand lots of the different cultures that one would...

    Where have you worked in Indonesia?

    Yes, those log pads were only good for about 5 months then had to be rebuilt. General rot and bugs would do them in.

    Living with extended families.

    Most guys I know who went "home" with Indonesian/Asian wives ended up with the wife seeking out others from her country and not integrating in the American culture. Heard lots of complaints from old friends about that. Not all, mind you, but the majority

    Tax consultants

    I just read a post on the "other" expat forum site from a person shown as "Just Another Bule" asking about tax consultants. I cannot log-on there so cannot answer the post. Maybe some of you can pass this along. I also checked with a few "Tax Consultant" businesses 4 years ago. They are very...
