Jakarta

[QUOTE=SeaTraveler;2387089]NEED HELP w/ local knowledge. I visit Nov 7-15.

I am advised that November 9 is Muhammad's birthday, an official Muslim holiday, and BATS will be closed both Friday and Saturday.

Can anyone confirm this?

This screws my plans because this is my only weekend in Jakarta and I planned to go to BATS & CJ'S both nights. If they are closed I have to rearrange my plans.

If yes, is it just BATS & CJ'S that will be closed or will all clubs like Crown & Immigrant also be closed?

Will brothels be closed like Kings Cross & Malio?

Thanks, SEA Traveler.[/QUOTE]They take the Muslim holidays seriously, so most likely all of those places will be closed. But there were be plenty of girls willing to come to your hotel. Just make sure to have a good list of phone numbers by that time. The worst time to go to BATS and CJs is on Friday and Saturday nights anyway. The same girls are there, but there are many more men there as competition Fri and Sat. I think you should re-arrange your visit to go there on nights other than Fri and Sat.

Thanks, SEA Traveler.[/QUOTE]I have also made a post about this some days back, but no response so far. I tried calling classic, but there was no answer. I tried calling Club Malio. I got an answer and the line was nice and clear, the lady said yes they are open, but her English was extremely weak and I am not sure she understood I was talking about dates next weekend, not tonight. I have also sent an email to both places. Have no idea whether they will respond, but if they do I will post it here.

[/QUOTE]I got a message from Shangri-La that BATS will be open Friday and Saturday (8&9).

I got an email this morning from Mulia saying CJ'S is open Friday and Saturday (8&9).

How much truth there is in this, we will all see.

Luckily, Tinder and Badoo have provided me a list of 40+ women willing to meet for sex so the holiday isn't too much of a disruption. But I still find the bar scene * the hunt and chase * more fun.

Cheers, SEA Traveler.

Even though the hotel staff tells me BATS & CJ'S will be open, I remain skeptical, so I have alternative plans available.

I had planned to stop into both bars every night during my stay; just to look around and hunt. I am staying at both Shangri-La and Mulia so the entry fee is free at one of the 2 bars every night.

Cheers.

I started using Tinder, then Badoo about 3 weeks ago because the premium memberships are good for 1 month and I arrive next Wednesday.

FOR THOSE WHO LIKE STATS:

Out of about 150 contacts, I narrowed my list down to 40.

= 2 are real girlfriend material with jobs and cars and interested in a LTR and both seem to be really nice people, young and attractive. I like a few of those too. 2 is about right. No talk or mention of sex.

All the rest have agreed to meet me at Shangri-La and go to my room (which apparently is a sign they are ok with sex or a BJ).

= 23 have not mentioned money at all.

= 16 have asked for money in the form of shopping money or a set amount * some are 1. 0, but mostly 1. 5 juta for ST. Like Smoothy, I prefer ST, but I have one coming from Depok for an overnight for 2 juta. I just couldn't resist her GND look.

= 9 of the P4 P girls have agreed to pictures and video (only 1 turned me down so far), which is why I am ok with 1. 5. I was actually surprised by a few who I thought would say no, but happily agreed.

That's all for now. Over and out!

Cheers, SEA Traveler.

PS. I feel like I am hogging the forum. We need some trip reports!!!

Was headed on a dive trip to Ambon and had a one night layover in CGK. Stayed at the Orchardz Bandara. Decent room for around 50 USD per night and close to the airport. They have an attached spa. Massage plus sex 90 min for about 640 K. No line up but you can reject the girl and they will send another. Got light skinned local girl around 30. Slightly chubby but didn't send her back and expected good service. Got a decent massage, body to body and BBBJ and BBFS. Not a bad "lay" over.

[/QUOTE]Will be very surprised if you don't end up in bed with these girls. I only went for girls like this and never went back to the hotel alone. Tended to stay clear of the obvious FL profiles. All the GND's are looking for is a nice evening out with somebody who has a bit of personality. That can end up more expensive than just picking a girl off the pile but I like the company as well so doesn't worry me. Hopefully you have found 1 or 2 gems. If I ever end up looking for some extra curricular activity in Jakarta again I'll be straight onto Tinder, don't see any need for BAT's or CJ's anymore. Definitely worth spending the time connecting prior to arriving. Have fun.

So far I have pretty good experience with Badoo and with the right approach, outcome has been very fruitful. You do get the odd FL's who suffers badly in golden pussy syndrome (5 mil for LT) but besides that most girls are pretty open to meet and greet and spending times in hotel.

I'm still going to spend my fair share of time at Classic but will definitely try the Badoo girls on the side.

Special thanks to Sea and all the Badoo warriors.

I took a trip the other day to take a look at things up north. Popped into classic straight up to T5. It was about 5:30. About 12 girls and just me as a customer. Place is huge. A mamasan latched on to me and was way too annoying. I drank up my beer and left. Large Bintang bottle was 105 k. Did not bother with T2 or Travel after that. Took the train up to Kota and took a Gojek to the railway tracks. It was still only about 7 and pretty quiet. Proceeded down the dark alley, not too many ladies about and none I would fancy. Halfway down they were doing some sort of maintenance so could not proceed. I will come back at a later time on another day. Took another bike to Kotah Indah. Went in Grand LA, MTR, New Sari Ayu and Starmoon. Grand LA and MTR have the ladies packed in at the back not easily visible from the bar, they don't really make eye contact. New Sari Ayu has them to one side so I could sup my beer and take a look. Starmoon as you all know has a fishbowl. I enjoyed it there way too much and some of the girls. Wow. Large bintang bottles ranged from about 75-85 If I can remember. I had about 6 there. I will certainly return next weekend.

Anyone knows where to get viagra and cialis with out prescription near Plaza Indonesia?

[QUOTE=Dkooau;2388218]Anyone knows where to get viagra and cialis with out prescription near Plaza Indonesia?[/QUOTE]Most Pharmacies and Apotek's sell it but extremely expensive.

Won't be difficult to find.

[QUOTE=Dkooau;2388218]Anyone knows where to get viagra and cialis with out prescription near Plaza Indonesia?[/QUOTE]Catch a cab and head to Classic Hotel. Just before you get there you will see many carts selling the stuff cheaply. I checked the carts out last night and couldn't find anything dodgy but didn't need to buy anything.

Most Indonesians girls are looking for LTR (Marrige and bring them to western country). This is their ultimate goal, even the one with jobs, and car.

Majority of these girls you found will fuck you on first day, but here is the deal. Make it clear its nothing but a friendship and fun thing.

Get ready for them to turn into Spy, and follow you everywhere even you don't know, its always best to make it clear, that you are interested in FWB thing and its nothing serious at this moment, or anytime soon.
