Muslim Brotherhood in Indonesia
The United Arab Emirates has dropped British universities from a list of schools their citizens can study at under government scholarship. The reason according to the Financial Times in London, which broke the story, is over concerns that students will become radicalized in Britain due to the...- Dave70

Stone the crows. How will this go down in Bali?
I guess they were filming it, so it’s not that “they handle it privately” because the video will go public and everyone will know it was shot in Bali, staining Indonesia’s reputation while dishonoring Balinese culture, customs and traditions. Imagine more and more blue films being produced in...- Dave70

Thrifting (imported used clothing)
Thrift business owners are lobbying the government to "legalize" the illegal importation of used clothing, in the meantime, local textile industries are either shutting down or cutting their workforce and they are blaming the illegal imports entering the country.- Dave70

'Ghost Meal' = no meal delivered but caterer get paid anyway. Parents made to sign "no complaint form". Madrasah who provide meals from their own kitchen to their students were ordered to stop and accept MBG.- Dave70

Thrifting (imported used clothing)
Indonesia prohibits the importation of used clothing since 2015 (ban was reinforced in 2021 and further amended/reaffirmed in 2022). But imports not only continue but have grown so much that thrift stores are now mushrooming all over the country. The price for each shipping container is...- Dave70

Free meals for children (MBG) is it good as intended ??
Meal assembly on the floor, no packing station at all. Imagine how they wash the food trays, it may be more hygienic to eat at a gerobak bakso where they wash/dip their bowls on a pail of water. There are also reports that the food trays are not food-grade stainless steel, they used type 201...- Dave70

Free meals for children (MBG) is it good as intended ??
You mean normal in Indonesia, but definitely unacceptable in advanced countries like Finland and Sweden. Part of the problem is unexperienced/unqualified meal suppliers, for example, a contractor (for government road projects) venturing into the food business due to his existing connections in...- Dave70

Free meals for children (MBG) is it good as intended ??
Is there possibility this MBG program will be cancelled? Just like IKN (new capital), which is now at a standstill. The government now has "excuse" to cancel it to allocate funds for buildings and other facilities damaged during the recent riots. BTW, is rice still scarce and expensive (huge...- Dave70

Should work & school be suspended tomorrow?
He was not part of the riot, he was there to deliver food to someone who ordered it from Gojek. I saw on YT a video shot from the left side of the road (most videos circulating on YT were shot from the right side), looks like he fell because someone (man in white) shoved him while running across...- Dave70

Should work & school be suspended tomorrow?
I heard there will be no classes this whole week. Our factory has postponed all export shipments scheduled for this week, we want to avoid "hijack" incidents while transporting the containers to the port. You never know where the masses are going to be.- Dave70

ANTIPLAQUE Toothpaste, proudly made in Indonesia
Not many people know that ANTIPLAQUE contains Clove Oil. I don't know what Arnica Montana Extract and Eugenia Caryophyllus Extract are, it could be exotic ingredients too. ANTIPLAQUE is a local brand not only manufactured in Indonesia but also developed in Indonesia which distinguishes it from...- Dave70

ANTIPLAQUE Toothpaste, proudly made in Indonesia
Mauricio once commented that Indonesian toothpaste brand ANTIPLAQUE is more expensive (but better) than multinational brands. I have been using ANTIPLAQUE for years, we always kept several months (up to a year probably) of supply at home. When stock is low (usually 2-4 tubes of 180g each), we...- Dave70

Corporate “Sudden Death Syndrome”
The owner decided to close, he probably cannot recover most of his investment even if he is able to move his machinery and sell the factory building. Read the news, the workers are not complaining about their wages. So it's not about paying too little. Working conditions must be excellent as...- Dave70
