    Which malls can unvaccinated people go to?

    That's what I think too. As soon as everyone (70-80% of people) get the jab they'll slowly start relaxing the rules.

    Which malls can unvaccinated people go to?

    Lol you sound like a vaccine zealot. Even many locals adamantly refuse to get it. What does that tell you? For someone who's lived here forever you seem pretty high strung. Pop open a bintang and relax.

    Which malls can unvaccinated people go to?

    If the rules aren't being properly enforced, then whose fault is that? Life has to go on eventually. Can't keep cowering in fear at home.

    Which malls can unvaccinated people go to?

    Tough titty said the kitty. News flash. You're not special just bc you managed to live here for 5-10 yrs. The gatekeeping rude attitude is disgraceful.

    Which malls can unvaccinated people go to?

    Anyway I managed to venture out to Kuningan. I went to about 3 malls. They all let me in without too much of a problem. I was with a local though. Next time I'll go alone and compare. If I get stopped I'll just slip the guard 50 or 100 ribu. That's money well spent to do some shopping.

    Which malls can unvaccinated people go to?

    Why is everyone an asshat on this forum? It's a simple question. No need to act like a douche if you don't know. They obviously don't all check the card / QC code plus I'm not interested in the vaccine so that's out of the question.

    Which malls don't check the vaccine card or QR code? Does anyone know if they're lax with this rule?

    Moved to Bekasi

    You do realize there's a pandemic going on right now? Hmm... It was kinda tolerable before the ppkm lockdown and I could see friends and enjoy bars etc at least. Now there's nothing... It's mostly guys that have been here 5+ years that love it a lot. Most newcomers don't seem to fancy it from...

    Moved to Bekasi

    Hey man. Like it's just my opinion man. You guys seem to be so upset when I describe the reality of this place.

    Moved to Bekasi

    Sounds like Bekasi is just like Jakarta. Probably worse. No friendly people or decent food. Just loud mosques and fake politeness. And crazy heat during the day.

    I'm characterizing their behavior. I don't like being singled out. Tons of locals get a silent pass because they hate foreigners basically and they think we're spreading this mythical virus. I think it's mostly the Chindos being Karens actually because they're quite aggressive and roughly...

    I'm trying real hard just like Jules in Pulp Fiction to be the good shepherd. Excellent metaphor for dealing with these morally bankrupt and corrupt racist people.

    Some pretty pictures

    They look lovely. I've enjoyed traveling to Bogor and Bandung and Jogja before lockdowns / muhdik actually for the nature, peace of mind and fresh air. It served as a brief respite from craphole Jakarta, the worst city in Indonesia.

    I don't mind the lockdown but I've noticed locals acting more harshly and xenophobic as of late. Barking at me to put on my mask and standing a few feet from me on purpose. Meanwhile they ignore all the low class idiots in wife beaters and sandals in my building BREAKING the rule on purpose...

    Why so complicated to open bank account in Indonesia for foreigners

    The policy just isn't logical. Indos think somehow you can't spread this ridiculous disease with a plastic bank card, but they shun cash. Mostly at the big malls. I've seen people here just take out this 3jt cash wad and start rubbing it down with sanitizer. Incredibly intelligent people.

    Bule living in middle class neighbourhood experience

    I would suggest an apartment in Kunnigan or Kemang or some other apartment in Jakarta but then you deal with douchey rich locals who push and shove without saying 'permisi' or excuse me. Or you deal with sugar baby / trust fund types that try and look down on you because they can't get a good...

    Why so complicated to open bank account in Indonesia for foreigners

    Yeah I figured it out and it's working now. Indo isn't really good for payment infrastructure where payments are seamless. Lot of red tape and documents needed versus say the Philippines or even Vietnam where anyone can top up wallets or bank accounts. Cashless is very important now since more...

    Why so complicated to open bank account in Indonesia for foreigners

    Noticed that Indo isn't a user friendly country for banking or business either without huge bureaucracy or using a 2nd tier bank like Permata / HSBC. You also have bad payment infrastructure where it takes you forever and a day to top up OVO, linkaja or any digital wallet.
