The worst flooding to hit the city in five years had receded slightly Saturday in some city-centre districts, but continued to rise in outlying areas, media reports and witnesses said.

Several main roads leading to the city of 12 million people were blocked, and the rail network was crippled. Scores of callers to local radio station el-Shinta reported they were trapped in their houses.

Sunardi, from the National Coordination Agency for Disaster Relief, said that five people had died, having been either electrocuted or drowned, since Friday. More than 106,000 people had been made homeless, said Sunardi, who goes by a single name.

The homeless were staying with family or in mosques, schools and government buildings on higher ground, officials said.

Hendri, an official monitoring water levels at sluice gates on major rivers, said rains falling in the hills south of Jakarta could result in more flooding.

"We must be on guard. The weather is still our enemy here," Hendri said. "Those who live in flood prone areas, please seek refuge."

The country's meteorology department forecast more rains Saturday and over the next two weeks.

Seasonal rains cause flooding each year in Indonesia, including the capital, but Friday's were the worst since 2002, when waters washed into the presidential palace and the lobby of a five-star hotel.

Greetings,

I have arrived to Jakarta a few days ago, am not really enjoying the rain, and as I asked to the concierge of my hotel (Intercontinental Mid-Plaza) about Bok M, he advised me that the way to go there is all flooded.

Is it true? Sorry, but I am here all isolated in my Ivory Tower, and I'd like to take a tour. Well, I hope tomorrow will be fine.

Another example is the Maribaya Spa (6th floor of Hotel Melawai). In December 2005 (when the US$ exchange rate was 10,000), the house fee was 320,000 rupiah tip included. It's now 350,000 rupiah, and when I was there a couple of weeks aggo, the girl I was with, Monica, asked for a "bonus," which I refused to pay with a smile.

Hello there I'll pick up on this thread to say that on my first trip to Jakarta, I found the set-up at Maribaya Spa (6th floor of Hotel Melawai) quite a turn-off for the price (R350,000):the room where I took the girl was shabby so I brought her to my own room, which for R320,000 was just okay. For those prices, you get a Thai girl for much longer than one hour, in a much nicer hotel room. Having said that, this was my first foray into Indonesia and I reckon that I have much to learn and that overall I found the people and the girls lovely in general.

If you are interested in white girls I saw some more at the Alexis hotel in Jakarta Utara. I was again, told these girls were Russian and expensive compared to the local wanita. There is a night club on the ground floor but I was also told that there is better action upstairs.

Excellent posting, Bebek.. thanks for sharing.

The Alexis hotel -formerly known as Grand Ancol- has, as you noted, a nite club on it's ground floor and has action upstairs - but it's a very upmarket establishment. Prices will be starting around 1 M, and up, for a girl. The top floor, where the action is, is a very tasteful designed spa - entrance fee is 120k which will get you a locker, only.

It hosts a mix of girls - amongst nice looking Indonesian, there are Thai stunners, stylish silk-dressed Chinese pretty's and as you write, some white Russian girls. .. Now, I have traveled Russia couple of times, even speak a few words, and I think Russia hosts some of the most beautiful Caucasian women in the world, but you may agree with me if I say that unfortunately these have not come to the Alexis hotel.. yes, the girls do have blond hair and blue eyes, but compared to the Asian girls there, the physique of these white girls looks like they will be doing a great job collecting potatoes behind a tractor.. 1,5 M - not for me, I'd stick to the local wanita, cheers.

If you go back 10 years, there's very little price inflation, if you're a foreigner. I was in Jakarta in October/November 1997 and the Rupiah was starting to fall, around 3000/USD. Hotels seemed expensive, by mid-western U.S. standards. My room at Atlet Century Plaza on the club floor ran 120 USD. A date at Bintang Mawar or TC was 30 USD (100,000 Rp.), and Maribaya was a little more expensive (not a lot more like today). I blew $70 on a hooker I met in JJ's, and she was pissed off because she thought I was underpaying!

Flash forward to May and June of 1998. There was rioting in the streets. Several malls were torched and went up in flames, and Suharto was deposed. The Chinese were running for their lives. The Rupiah took a nose dive to 14,000/USD. And you could find the cheapest, best quality poontang in the world in Jakarta. I was blown away by one cewek in TC, an honest to goodness "10", that I had for a little over 10 USD, including the tip. The room in the Atlet had dropped to $35. Even the Karaoke places were cheap! You could get drinks, a little plate of fruit and the company of a woman for less than what you'd spend on beer back home. The women in Blok M were suffering, as a lot of the foreigners had either disappeared or were laying low. Probably people were being a little paranoid, although I did hear that a couple of Brits were killed by taxi drivers.

Anyway, shortly after is when Indonesia started to become a really popular P4P destination for foreign sex tourists, because of the cheap pussy.

I have a theory. If you want to make money in emerging markets, both in the currency and the stock markets, follow the mongers. When they start to swarm a country, buy. You would have done well if you bought shares in Indonesia back during the period -- the market is up 5X since then and the currency is up about 50%. Then sell when the mongers leave. And if inflation stays up and the currency continues to maintain its value, that day may be just around the corner.

I first stumbled onto Kartika Massage in 2002 when I was in Jakarta for just over a week to attend a wedding. I learnt about it and several others like it from an internet search but Kartika was the only one that I could actually find with the directions that were given at the time. I went alone about 4.00pm one afternoon...

In the end I got off the extra shot paid her the Rp130K + RP40K – no tip was even mentioned then and left a happy man.

I’ve been back to Kartika many times since then...

Thanks to Bebek for his kind words.

This post is a good reference point to a discussion from a week ago, which was about price inflation for sex in Jakarta.

It has definitely gotten more expensive to have sex in Jakarta, as prices have increased at the spas, thanks mainly to the 30% inflation rate since late 2005, and the girls' expectations have increased as well, both for the size of the tip (at a spa) and the ST/LT rate demanded by freelancers.

Kartika is a good example. In August 2004 the house fee was 200,000 rupiah, having just been increased from 175,000, and the girls would have been ecstatic if you gave them a 40,000 rupiah tip. By February 2005 the house fee was 225,000 rupiah, and by 2006 it was increased to 250,000 rupiah, and the girls will definitely expect at least a 50,000 rupiah tip. Factor in the drop in the US dollar exchange rate from 11,000 to 9,000 rupiah, and the cost of sex at Kartika has increased noticeably.

Another example is the Maribaya Spa (6th floor of Hotel Melawai). In December 2005 (when the US$ exchange rate was 10,000), the house fee was 320,000 rupiah tip included. It's now 350,000 rupiah, and when I was there a couple of weeks aggo, the girl I was with, Monica, asked for a "bonus," which I refused to pay with a smile.

However, as Bulai69 pointed out in his recent post, even taking price inflation and the falling US $ exchange rate into account, having sex in Jakarta is still much, much cheaper than in the US or the UK, and much more satisfying (at least with most girls here). Just realize that one will not find bargain-basement rates here (US $10 or less), unless one goes to a truly-dangerous neighborhood, or lucks out with a freebie or near-freebie.

Spa in Jakarta

Hi Bebek,

Is that most of the Spa in Jakarta. Example: for local Indonesian girls, Chinese PRC and Others girls. Is that they have their different own mamasan to lead their own group of girls show to customers?

In some spas, yes, such as the Malioboro (described below by Bebek), and the Sumo Shiatsu in Kelapa Gading, described by me in a post just over a month ago.

In other places, such as Maribaya Spa (6th floor of Hotel Melawai) and Kartika Spa, the girls seem to be on their own.

In some places, such as Hotel Travel and Stadium 3rd floor, there are several mamasans floating around, but it's not clear if they represent only some girls or not, or if they are just there to make sure you pick a girl (as opposed to leaving right away).

Spa in Jakarta

Hi Bebek,

Is that most of the Spa in Jakarta. Example: for local Indonesian girls, Chinese PRC and Others girls. Is that they have their different own mamasan to lead their own group of girls show to customers?

I posted earlier about a striptease bar at a Hotel. The correct name is Malioboro Hotel and Spa.

Located on Lj Gajah Mada No 13 A Jakarta Pusat opposite Dunkin Doughnuts.

The hotel’s lower floor has the full blown spa and works. The second floor has a large bar area full of ‘wanita’ all dressed in the same pink coloured erotic harem type costume. Normal hotel rooms are located above.

I was there last month on a Saturday night. You enter at the bottom floor and are given a wrist bracelet with a number attached. You can then proceed to have a spa or go directly upstairs to the action. At 9.30pm and 11.00pm about 6 girls do a striptease dance (down to panties only) they then go amongst the crowd and do sort of lap dancing with patrons while drinking from a shot glass given to them by a waitress. If a dancer chooses you for this personal lap type of dance you will be charged Rp50K for each drink she has. One large breasted girl came to me and I had spent Rp100K before I knew what had happened! The charge ‘Tequila Striptease’ appeared on my account when paying my bill.

Anyway to answer your question about mamasans, in this establishment there were at least 6 mamasans working that night. Each mamasan had her own flock of wanita. As I said earlier each flock attracted a different price. The most expensive was a mixed group of Chinese, Vietnamese ,Taiwan? with a few white girls which I was told were Russian. These girls were charging Rp1,5M for one hour in a small room upstairs on the next level. You could pay more for a better room but the standard room was quite adequate.

I chose a local girl who was very attractive about 20 years old - Rp350K. She was a starfish however and only sparked up when the time was nearly over.

Afterwards I returned to the bar area and had a few beers with friends while admiring the various lovely flocks of wanita being paraded around the very large bar area to potential clients.

If you are interested in white girls I saw some more at the Alexis hotel in Jakarta Utara. I was again, told these girls were Russian and expensive compared to the local wanita. There is a night club on the ground floor but I was also told that there is better action upstairs.

Just found out that company has booked me into Four Seasons hotel.

Any info or advice regarding this hotel?

Does it have a bar that is as hot as BATS?

Thanks

The four seasons doesn't have shit. But you are close to Bats.

She confirmed the new rule – have to walk the girl down if she leaves middle of night. So be prepared.

I liked your post. However, I'm not sure what you mean by "new rule". I've been coming to Jakarta close to 10 years now. The security at the Shangri-La is notorious for "shaking down" the girls. They always hit the girls up for money if you don't escort them down - threatening to call the police to report them as prostitutes. Most security anywhere in Jakarta will get away with whatever they can. It's always nice if you can escort the girls out. Some of them have told me stories of the security guys not only wanting money, but sex and/or nude photos.

Hi Chacha

Will be in JKT soon... First visit there for business.

Staying around Menteng area.

Any advice/info on places around this area?

Also, can you care to share the contact who had worked in LA?

Am not conversant with Bahasa and will need to converse in english.

Which sites did you find your contacts from?

Many thanks!

[Chacha]

Folks, thank you all for your advice and messages at various points about Jakarta. And your invaluable postings. Just finishing up my first trip. And I must say I had a great time. Here are my observations. Slightly longish post, but given the help I have received from the forum, thought I would share most of my observations.

I would pick JKT over SIN / BKK any time for partying. My tastes tend to be “slightly upscale” – so not Gaylang / Patpong / Nana kind. (no offense meant for those who like these fine places.) But for me JKT turned out to be great.

Got in from Singapore on Wednesday morning. Had booked into the Shangri-la using the Value Rate – so had a Mercedes S-class waiting for me at the airport. The ride gave me a first taste of the infamous Jakarta traffic. Got into the hotel, checked in and started making some calls. Over the past weeks, based on advice of some of the members, I had started making some contacts with girls in Jakarta. This process, thought a bit slow and painful given the idiosyncrasies of faceparty, had given me some good phone numbers.

Called one and fixed the plan for the evening 8 pm for her to come to the hotel for dinner etc. Called the second one – she was ready to come to my room immediately! I had to tell her not to unfortunately, since had some meetings lined up. Post that, had a in room massage from the Spa, which was not bad at all.

8 :30 pm, met up with this gorgeous 24 year old, who had spent 3 years in LA, in the lobby. She turned a few heads, as we walked into the restaurant. Couple drinks, nice dinner, nice conversation, we were ready to hit the “Bar At The Shangrila (B.A.T.S.).” Pretty awful band playing, with quite a good crowd though. Had a drink there, and she suggested we go to CJ’s. CJ’s had a much better band and music. After an hour of bumping and grinding, came back to the hotel for an all-nighter. She hung out all night, and left at 11 next morning. Damage? Dinner and drinks. Not bad, faceparty.

After she left, I logged on and had a couple other girls reply to my offer to meet up. Fixed up with one for the evening – I wanted to meet her at 7:30 since wanted to hit the gym. She said I will come at 6, and just hang out in your room, while you go to the gym. Got back from the gym, she was freshly showered, waiting. She said she is “openminded” and bisexual – but is preserving her virginity ;-) She wanted to go to “Heaven Lounge” (apparently has a lot of bisexual women there). Not having read anything about it, I did not want to venture out in unknown territories. I tend to be quite risk averse. Then she proceeded to give me a BBBJ right there and then. Having shot my load, I made some excuse about needing to meet some colleagues urgently, gave her taxi money, and sent her along her merry way. Then went down to Satoo restaurant to have a sumptuous buffet dinner. (it is really good!)

After dinner, 10 pm, headed down to BATS. The band (average) was just coming on, and the crowds were slowly building up. I will not describe BATS again – it has already been described before by other members. Similar experience – took a Sumatran girl up for ST. She confirmed the new rule – have to walk the girl down if she leaves middle of night. So be prepared.

So all in all, a fun first experience in JKT!
