Bar Fine
Last night I was in Maribaya and it was empty except for another fellow bule. There was a cute girl by name Rini from Jeppara and I asked her whether she would like to spend the night out, party and sleep with me. She readily agreed and we negotiated the rate for Rp.600,000 for the whole night. It was 8 pm and the price was till 5 am. She said in case she had to join me right away then I will have to pay a bar fine of Rp.155K and I agreed. I took her out to D's place for a drink and then went to Pondok Nirwana. Left her about 45 minutes back and here I am reporting.
The surprise element was the bar fine. I though it was restricted to Phillipines and Thailand. I guess, it will catch up here too soon. Or is it already in vogue?
Cheers

[QUOTE=Non Olet]Sorry, could not find the meaning of "Goyang Madura" and "Empot Ayam". Because I am trying to learn bahassa, this might be a usefull addition to my vocabulary
NO[/QUOTE]
I doubt if you'll find those phrases in most mainstream English-Bahasa Indonesian dictionaries, as they are street slang.
In Bahasa Indonesian, the adjective follows the noun (opposite of English), so the first phrase is "Madura-ese" Goyang while "Ayam" means both chicken (the animal) and a young prostitute in Bahasa Indonesian.

Higher Tips at Kartika?
[QUOTE=Spice Lover]After a long break, I recently went back to Kartika as I had been missing the soapy massages...
...I ended up by paying her 300k (250+ tip) and she was quite pissed and expected 100k as tip. But given her service and attitude I thought that was enough. I had paid 100k to Cynthia as tip because of the excellent service that she had given.[/QUOTE]
A further thought on the section of your post referring to the tip you gave at Kartika:
Yes, the accepted minimum tip is 50,000 rupiah, with many guys (including me) giving 100,000 rupiah for outstanding service.
Unfortunately, we mongers may begin to experience more incidents such as what Spice Lover described, that is that the girls will start expecting 100,000 rupiah as a minimum, whether they deserve it or not. Part of the reason is simple economics, as the 250,000 rupiah house fee at Kartika has not increased since 2005, and the girls only receive 80,000 rupiah out of that 250,000 rupiah total.
Add in the recent doubling of the price of staple items such as rice, cooking oil, tofu/tempeh and kerosene, plus the tremendous pressure from the girl's family back home to send home more money, and combine this with the slight decrease in business in the Jakarta mongering scene during the last six months (i.e. less customers), and obviously the girls would like as big a tip as possible.
To illustrate this, the following happened to me recently (I did not post this story before now) - I stopped by Kartika, all of my favorites were either busy upstairs or off-duty, so I ended up choosing a girl who I had never been with before, 22, chunky but cute, she knew me by name even though I did not recall ever seeing her there before (she said she's worked there for over a year). Had a decent but not outstanding session and debated whether to give her the minimum 50 or 100 as a tip. Decided to give her 100,000 rupiah anyway, and I was shocked when she started complaining "is that all?" I replied in Bahasa Indonesian that 100,000 is a good tip, that I was a good customer and knew what the proper tip was, also that no Indonesian would give her more than that for the service received, and she quickly backed down and said sorry, sorry, thank you for the tip.
Needless to say, I won't be choosing her again!

Jakartaafterdark
I found Jakartaafterdark on this site and took the nightlife tour last week. It was excellent and I not only felt like I saw a very good selection of the sex scene but safe and secure in the process. Great fun! The host was on time, clean-cut, extremely friendly and courteous and did not try to squeeze any extra money. The fee was fixed and in fact there was no rushing and we extended beyond 3 hours at no extra cost. The places we visited were varied and excellent including the famous soapy massage and some excellent clubs with very nice girls at great prices. As their advert implies, I think this tour not only could help avoid scams and overpricing but it definititely lets you see a bit of everything in a stress free way. The fee included transportation in a decent car. I also took the 8 hour day tour and that was really fantastic and I am certain that I was able to see more of Jakarta as a result. Money well spent and a fantastic time enjoyed!

Freebie
[QUOTE=Rainman 2108]Hahaha..
I hv a regular in Blok M. went back with me 3 times and always goes back in the morning where I will send her to Fatmawati, ATM, get some cash and pay her if I am short.
Once, went back together with another friend and her friend. Did not finish the biz as her friend want to go back and same for my friend. Told her I am cashless and would give her by transfer tomorrow since It's 3 am when she want to go back.
Next morning, she SMS me non stop to threaten me with all kinds of words that I have to be careful if I do not pay. Worst of all, she do not even have a bank account that I could transfer but uses her friend's which is some funny bank and BCA do not have TT with... So I have to leave my work behind and goes to the bank and TT the 300k to her. What a waste of my time... Considering that even when I did not bring her back. I tips her at least 50k.....
So much for freebie.... But yes.. once a friend pick up a Chinese Pontianak girl and at LM and check in at Malawai hotel. He asked his driver to go to BCA but could not get any money and he did not pay her.... That is consider Freebie? This girl is very new in blok m...Never seen her since.....
Cheers[/QUOTE]Rainman,

[QUOTE=Buds66]I RTFF and I found the Oasis Amir Hotel a good value x price.
[/QUOTE]
Prive/value is okay for Oasis Amir, I've stayed there once. And it's next to Atrium Mall.
It's catering mostly for Middle East people, so many Arabs and their traditionally dressed women around. Even Saudi-channel in the TV in room.
Thats the reason I stayed there once only, didn't like it too much.

Strip or show?
Any recommendation for a nice dance show/striptease place in Jakarta? Anything similar to Bangkok?
I have enjoyed the scene at Mulia and Grand Hyatt a few times, but this time thought I'd venture out a bit more.
Have never been to the Blok M? Is that safe for a stranger alone?

I think if would better to post it in classified ads, not here. But Thanks any way.
My humble two cents.

No idea about dance shows/stripteases; hopefully another member can help you out there.
Yes, the area of Blok M that is written about here (bars such as MyBar and Top gun) is safe for a stranger alone. Most of the action takes place on the one street where those bars are located, so you won't need to walk around much.
Obviously you should take the normal safety precautions that any monger should take when going out for the evening: keep your valuables in the hotel safe, don't walk around with too much cash, don't use your credit cards in any of these places, lock your passport in the safe and walk around with a photocopy of the face page instead (thanks to Bulai69 for this suggestion).
A few weeks I posted about a warning that had been issued by the US Embassy about foreigners being targeted in some Jakarta bars and having their drinks spiked; something to be aware of. For me, the solution is simple: drink only beer, and make sure the bottle is opened in front of you.

[QUOTE=Aakumu]Sorry, Is this a report or a promo?[/QUOTE]
I think it's a good report.
JAD is a valuable member of ISG, often providing useful insights and humorous comments on Jakarta's nightlife on this forum, free of charge. He doesn't promote his own services here. I think it's perfectly cool for a satisfied customer to comment on what he offers, they could be a valuable resource for someone new to the city and without contacts here.
With all due respect to JAD, it's not that different from somebody giving positive feedback on a service provider or venue.

More or less true. There's some pretty tough characters on the street, but they seem to be there more to protect the punters than harass them. The only thing to be careful of is that the taxis that lurk in the area are often a bit dodgy. At the very least, you are usually better off taking a taxi that is cruising rather than one that's parked outside the bar and waiting for you. Or you could take a Silverbird and get them to wait, although I never bother.

Jakarta visit
Haven't been in JKTA for 6 months. Arrived a few days back on a working visit.
Have a 30 yr old cutie, a secretary, who I've seen on many previous visits. She was there at airport to meet me. Nice taxi ride back to hotel during which time my hands were busy in her panties most of the ride. Up to the room followed by the boom. Or should I say the double boom.
She couldn't stay. "home to Mom". But she was free of course.
Sowent out for massage. Meha cikini hotel the choice from the album was not same a pic (how often does that happen). But I needed a release anyways.
Then to BATS but nothin happening there. And Tigah Pullme. But by then needed to sleep.
Worked nexzt day but had a 3 hour break for lunch. Went to Menteng Hotel (I know theres two so don't know which one). Selected Rini from the album. I love the thrill of wondering whether it will be a good photo and crap girl or crap photo and good girl. Rini was the latter. 23. Slim, cute as a button with a great happy smile. Neither if us spoke each others language but smiles helped. Anyways. After the firt hour Rinis clothes are off. She gave gret wank with blow. And was happy to finger herself to a loud come too.
Back to work, then off to an office near Mulia to meet a Date in Asia lady, who is also a secretary. We had been chatting for a month and sex was alwys hinted at. Cute funny gal on phone and very friendly. We had a great night. Hit CJ's Bats and Tigah Pull as well as some restaurant and bars. We had lots of smiles and was natural that we return to my hotel at end of night for mor fun. Clothes off. Very tasty puss. Slept at 3. She left at 8am.
Todays problem is that girl number one wants to see me tonight. So was girl number 2.
What they don't know is that I know two ladyboys who have a "stable" of young girls. So one is bringing an 18 year old to my hotel for my delight. Told its RM400 plus tip. So lets see. Rest of report to follow.

Thanks Gonzo and Mighty for your tips. Will take some cautious steps in the area and see what happens. If I am not back by Monday call the cops :)
Seriously though, anyone else knows about any bars where you can see more or less undressed girls dancing?
-
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 always been amused by the modest of Indonesian girls in this sense: they will give you a mind-blowing experience in bed, fully uninhibited... and then they are shy about being seen naked when they run to the bathroom.
I love them.

[QUOTE=Liondale]Seriously though, anyone else knows about any bars where you can see more or less undressed girls dancing?[/QUOTE]May be this would interest you but be careful about the tequillas:
[QUOTE=Berguling Lagi]Last night I was at the M'nB Bar at Sparks Hotel where there is a live band playing and like a lot of such bars there is a sexy dance show each time the band takes a break - usually each hour. Previously the sexy dancers I have seen just wore skimpy outfits and that's it but at M'nB they strip completely naked. Last night there were 4 dancers. They came on stage in black bras and panties. Three were just OK to look at but one was a real stunner. One girl's panties were quite see through at the front and showed up her pussy very nicely. Compared to other places I thought that was a bonus until suddenly they all took everything off and danced naked on the stage. Later they went amongst the guests and anyone silly enough to buy them 'tequillas' could have a personal in-your-face gyration and a bit of fondling as well. There seemed to be plenty of punters willing to fork out Rp 80,000 per glass for that. However, its not necessary. You still can sit there and enjoy the scenery without throwing money away. M'nB bar is easy to find as its entrance is in the hotel lobby directly opposite the hotel front door.[/QUOTE]
