    Obtaining Multiple Western Rx Meds (Outside of Jakarta) Vs. Jamu / TCM ?

    HeadsUp: This post / thread may be a bit of a dog's breakfast, as I'm just going to throw all my health and medicine related questions in here for now. Plan to retire back to RI within the next couple of years. I'm 57 and have multiple and fairly serious health issues including: Diabetes...

    Five Year KITAP (family reunification - spouse sponsored) Eligibility

    As of today - when I move back to RI and apply for KITAP according to the process, will I be immediately eligible to apply the 5 year KITAP, or do I have to do the series of one year permits as in previous times?

    My FIL RIP

    Not sure where to post this, but decided on General Chat rather than Health and Medical. So my father in law, Kasiman bin Kasiyan, passed away yesterday / earlier today (depending where you are), in Balikpapan. We do not know conclusively the cause of death: he was old and had been in poor...

    Bandung or Malang (Primary Retirement Home and / or Rental Property)?

    Which city offers the "coolest" environment? (I'm not talking hepcats here: "darajat" or is it "dajarat"; I always get them confused, like "kepala" and "kelapa") I know that Malang has the advantages (for me anyway) of being a smaller city and not having influxes of hundreds of thousand...

    Indonesia, Level 2: Exercise increased caution, January 3, 2019

    I received this email a few days ago from USDOS "STEP" ... the natural disasters part is obvious, I'm more curious about the terrorism part, it cites "shootings in Papua" (not too surprising) and "violent demonstrations in Central Sulawesi". I did not see any other thread in this section...

    Proposed Ban On Indonesian Dog Meat Trade, and other Animal Welfare Initiatives

    Maybe I should have posted this in this section in the first place (though I think it certainly qualifies as "in the news", so either one / both should be appropriate". I would like to translate some parts of this to B. I., would like to reach out to those whose English skills are not so good...
