Posts: 81First Trip to Jakarta
Ok so fortunately I hooked up with a cute girl from date site for my first day and things were good. She was going to stay for 2 days. We haggled a bit over whatsapp and I thought she might be a bit mercenary but we came to an agreement. She showed up was cute, seemed sweet and we got along well. In the morning she got a call from her uncle about her mom being in hospital. She had to go which was fine but she spent about an hour trying to convince me to give her the money for the second day with the promise that she would return in the future. I gave her the agreed upon money for one day. I refused to give her money for second day which she promised she would come back for in the future. Now the unfortunate part. She left sent a few texts to ask for money then asked to come back to room and then she came up with an ultimatum that I put $300 in her bank account within 2 hours or she would go to police. All of these I ignored. I have pretty much made up my mind to ignore this black mail attempt.
Curious if anyone has any advice. I think the chats themselves pretty well identify that I didn't harm her if she goes to the police to try and claim that but I have no idea whether police here are reasonable or if they would be interested in working with her to get a cut, etc. An alternative would be for me to preempt her and go to the police to report what she is trying to do but I have doubts as to whether that would go over well. Any advice throw it up in this section please, unfortunately I cannot receive pms on here.
Hopefully I can put this behind me and have a great trip. Later I can post pic of her so others can avoid also.

Posts: 176First night. Not a good start
Arrived in Jakarta for my New Year trip and it hasn't started well for me. Went out to My Bar (usual spot) and saw some new faces in the crowd as well as some of the regulars that always try to hit me up for drinks. There were quite a few "gems" in the crowd last night hopefully they will return again. Ok my story, just hanging out and looking over the scenery when I got hooked up with one of the on stage dancers, that felt really good. Not sure who they work for but she was one of the dancers in costume working for the bar I guess. Ok so it wasn't all my doing I had help to meet her. This person I have always tried to avoid, I think she is a mamasan brought her over and introduced her to me. We hit it off quite well until she stared drinking and couldn't stop. She went from drink to drink and seemed to never stop. Well silly me decided to take her back to the hotel, big mistake. She was drunk when we got to the hotel and speaking loudly made quite an entrance to the lobby. Nonetheless to say I was a bit shaken by this but soldiered on as I got to dance with one of the dancers while most of the other guys were trying to as well, there were 4 of them. But in the room it went downhill very fast, from being tired to being sick to just wanted to sleep. I had to give up trying any move on her. Not a first good day experience, but it can only get better from tonight on wards. Must say though in the past I knew how to spot women like this, I must be losing my touch.

I heard a rumor that there is no ladies night where the girls get in free at CJs anymore, but I have no confirmation on that. For many years it was Wednesday night.

I almost asked him how he got to be 5 stars when I got in the car but luckily I didn't since he turned out to be a super nice guy. After the long ride to Pluit I knew why everyone rated him 5 stars. All drivers were friendly and made sure you got good service and they dropped you off exactly where you wanted to keep their 5 star rating. 5 star Grab cars usually costed between 11 k and 16 k rupiah depending on where I was going. What I really liked was if I wanted to go to Kota Indah I no longer had to explain to the driver where Kota Indah / Pangjay were since my Grab destination was on their GPS. I also liked the efficient cashless transaction through my credit card. I did tip some drivers if their drive was through traffic or they got me somewhere really quickly.
Pro tip. If you change your destination part way through a ride it will end up costing you a lot more even if the new destination is closer. Also, if you do a geo location for a driver to pick you up it may be more expensive that if you punch in a store name for a driver to pick you up from. From Kota Indah I walked to the auto dealership on Pangeran Jayakarta.
I also used Grab in Kuala Lumpur and they were good as well.
Sadly, I am back in Pattaya now where Grab has decided to be greedy SOB's and match the taxi pricing of the taxi mafia.

I have never been there. But if I have to guess, maybe 25% fall in the category you described.
Couple of reports (posted earlier) said most girls carry a kit which has mouthwash and other personal cleaning supplies.
Hopefully, they do use the contents of their kit!
