You remember US$1 = Rp65, 000? I don't think so. In 1995-96 the Rupiah traded at about Rp2, 300 per USD. The Asian currency crisis in 1997-98 severely affected the Thai Baht and the Rupiah. In June...

Trying to call someone an "idiot" loses its punch when you can't even spell it! Idoit? Try RTTD (reading the fucking dictionary)

The departure fee is definitely IDR 150, 000 for international flights out of Soekarno-Hatta (Jakarta). Just paid it a few days ago.

IDR is the acronym for the Indonesia currency, the Rupiah. Currently about IDR9, 000 per USD. I do not know what satpam is either.

I love today's headline in the Jakarta Post: "Indonesia new honey pot for expatriates". I can't think of a better name for our lovely girls here than honey pots, but was disappointed to not find any...

But you are making the heroic assumption that her management reads this forum. Sheesh.

The outrage over what he paid her is ridiculous and hypocritical! Guys come on here all the time and talk about meeting up with DIA girls and shagging them and just giving them taxi money or maybe...

I didn't think Alexis Hotel was really a hotel where you can stay. Has that changed? I would consider staying there. That would be like getting stuck inside a box of chocolate; I'm not sure I would...

Are you referring to getting a Polish girl or are you referring to getting your knob polished?

And if you read the forum yourself, you would know that you should not criticize (or even comment upon) another member on the topic of "safe sex" in this thread. Those comments / criticisms should be...

Yes, so tell them you will be there for 2-3 months. Worked well for me

Thanks for letting us know about this special. Life is good.

I agree that a Veblen effect is entirely possible here. Maybe we can continue this conversation over a beer at Top Gun sometime.

Maybe not a good comparison: Imported goods are typically more expensive because of import tariffs imposed by the gov't which (supposedly) protect local producers and (usually) help gather a few more...

Is MTR2 an acronym or is it actually the name of the place? I did a search of the thread and came up with 11 hits, but all refer to it as MTR2 (not surprising given that I typed in MTR2 to do the...

Thanks to all for the valuable intel on KC, Mal, Oasis, HT, etc. I usually limit my hunting to Blok M (Jalan Paletehan). My only visits to the "spas" were to Alexis early last year and Total Country...

DIA is the abbreviation for DateinAsia which is a dating website. Just google it.

On my recent trip back to Jakarta, I visited one of my old hunting grounds that I used to frequent 5-10 years ago: the karaoke bars in Blok M near Hotel Melawai. The situation there has deteriorated...

Nude dancing girls in Jakarta is not very common. I think some of the less attractive girls will do that to increase their odds of being noticed and getting asked back to someone's hotel.

I have...

Returned to Jakarta recently after having been away for more than five years. That was stupid to stay away that long. My plans were to frequent Lokisari plaza, the panti pijat on Hayum Wuruk, Top Gun...

The 7 days of official mourning should be for the closing of Lintas Melawai. Maybe the US State Department can try to intervene to keep this fine establishment open. Better yet, we probably need a...

Yes, I believe it was known as Melawai disco. It was right next to the Melawai hotel with the girls on the 6th floor. What a shame if it is closing. But I'm sure the girls will find a new place to...

I have worked in many developing countries, and Indonesia is about the only one that I have seen that requires near-perfect dollar currency. I agree, very strange.

I'm making my first trip back to...
