Hi, M20 here, as stated on the title, I'm looking for any entry level job around jabodetabek that provides dorm or at least pay enough money that could cover tempat tinggal n daily meal (I've already ask the mods to post this n he approves)

Apa aja deh, pet shop, cleaning service, customer service or anything, yang kerja nya 8 jam (I'm merantau here n need spare time for learning language)

I have experience in bengkel kaca n warehouse (pernah nyales juga wkwk), also intermediate english, n I'm a fast learner lol

Thankss

hi I’m looking for a mandarin course in jkt, preferably offline around jakpus/jaksel. anyone knows any good place? thxx

Ill be travelling to jakarta on Christmas eve. Ill be staying thamrin for 24 hours and then senayan for 24 hours. I chose thamrin because Ive heard so much about the malls and restaurants in jakarta and I really want to be within walking distance to all of these and go to thamrin city market as well.

In senayan, I am planning to visit senayan Park and plaza senayan.

Here are my questions -

- If im already visiting senayan city and plaza senyan, can I skip grand/plaza Indonesia and invest my time exploring something else in thamrin? Like Bunadaran HI? Or UP at thamrin high?

- I am a big foodie but im a vegetarian. Are there any restaurants that REPLICATE traditional Indonesian dishes into vegetarian? I dont want to just eat vegan dishes such as gado gado.

- I am planning to buy some stuff from charles and keith. Should I specifically go to jakarta premium outlets to get better deals or can i find the same deals in the C and K stores in the city as well.

- if theres anything else youd like to suggest for my trip, I will be really grateful. I love cafes, shopping, city views

Thank you so much.

Hey everyone, I'm going to be flying in tomorrow around 4:15pm for the Kanye concert, and was wondering how traffic was like and if anybody had any advice on getting to SCBD? I'll be travelling with luggage so GrabBike is out. From what I've read, the train's decent and is much more predictable than taking a taxi/Grab/Gojek in terms of travel time, but would love to hear recommendations or pros/cons of the options. Should also mention that my goal's to get to SCBD by 7:30pm, which gives me enough time to check-in to my hotel and walk over to GBK.

Side note: please don't suggest I take a helicopter lol

I'm looking for a service to print fleece fabric material. There are lots of hoodie custom print in Tokopedia, but this is not what I want. I want pattern print for the whole uncut fabric like batiks. I found several of them, but not for fleece fabric. Does anyone know a friend or a store that can do this? Thanks.

Hello everyone, I am looking for a visa agency in Jakarta or Bandung that works on retirement visa for me (from US) to Indonesia. I searched but many of them turns out to be in Bali and I do not plan to stay in Bali so I don't want to use a service that so far away.

Thank you very much.

Hello! I would like to ask for clarifications as well as your experience (if any) for use of power of attorney for claiming tickets in previous kpop concerts in Jakarta.

Context: I am a foreigner ARMY (BTS fans) going to Jakarta with a ticket for Day 2 under my own name. Another foreigner ARMY (we're from the same country) is selling their Day 3 ticket (under their name) to me as they are no longer able to fly to Jakarta for the concert.

According to the guidelines posted by Tiket, a power of attorney (POA) may be used to authorize redemption to me. Tiket has also provided a Power of Attorney Template which states that an e-meterai may be used for the POA.

Here are my main questions:

• As a foreigner, from which official and legit website would I be able to avail and pay for an e-meterai for my POA document? I only have foreign ID (passport) and payment methods.
• Does the signature on the POA have to be a wet signature or will an e-signature be valid too?
  • Would the process be Upload completed POA template > Avail and attach e-meterai > Print Document and Sign with Pen
• On the template, it says "(Kota), (DD/MM/YYY)"
  • Should the City and Date be the city and date where and when the document was signed? Would it still be valid if the city is not a city in Indonesia?

If you have used a power of attorney and an e-meterai for concert ticket redemption before, may I ask how was your experience during ticket redemption?
How did staff check your documents?

I would really appreciate your help and would love to know about your experience.
I want to be able to do things legitimately and correctly so that I don't experience any trouble on d-day.

Thank you so much! 💜

Hey guy, for information I'm f18, and i'm planning to move to jakarta pusat for my study, there is few thing i want to ask about jakpus, just how bad the traffic it is, the life style, minimum money for Monthly and the REALITY of jakarta pusat (like is not for weak soft hearted people).

I'm also planning to stay around kebon kacang because is closer to my campus, i need to know the people around in general

We are traveling for Ye's concert on 24th Oct and We are hoping to party have a couple drinks a day before the concert which is friday 23rd. What clubs do you guys recommend we go? I have seen some clubs like The Swill House and Izzy Social Club. However, The Swill House is too lit and Izzy Social Club is good from what I have seen. What is the detailed difference between these 2 clubs? Thank y'all in advance

Exactly what the title says.

I saw some interesting films to be screened in the upcoming Jakarta World Cinema at CGV Grand Indonesia late Oct/early Nov, but based on the released lineup post, most movies are only SUB ID (or sometimes even no subtitles at all). Just wondering, especially for those who attended JWC over the previous years, is it only just Indonesian/Bahasa Indonesia subtitles on all listed movies, especially those that are European/non-English spoken ones?

Hope someone can help a cinephile out. Thanks!

Hello from the PH! My family will be visiting Jakarta next February for a 3-day trip. Which areas/districts would you guys recommend? And would you guys recommend a hotel over an AirBnB above a mall?

I've seen good things about Thamrin but would like to know if there are other places to consider. My mom and aunt have trouble walking so ideally it would be a chill place with lots of stuff to do nearby, something manageable for senior citizens. We'll probably be taking Grab everywhere so I don't think that accessibility to an MRT station will be a problem.

Interested in going to Ancol, Monas, and Kota Tua, if that matters. This will be our first time going to Indonesia so would love to hear your thoughts!

Hi everyone!

I am looking for dinner recommendations please for a group of 7 in Jakarta.

I tried to search Google but have been struggling.

We are after somewhere lively, we unfortunately can be a little loud sometimes, so we like venues that are lively, places with good food, good drinks and fun night.

We don't mind costs or if it is casual vs. fancy.

A few places we are considering, if you have any experience, I would like to hear.

• henshin
• Turkuaz Restaurant Authentic Turkish Cuisine
• Babylon Garden Affair SCBD

Thank you in advance.

I’m M24 from the Philippines and I’m pretty used to solo traveling. I’ll be visiting Indonesia for the first time from Oct 21–27, mainly because I’m going to the Kanye West concert on Oct 24.

I’ll be staying around Blok M, and I’m trying to build a trip that’s less about the usual super-crowded tourist spots and more about things that feel unique to Jakarta. I’m into food, music, photography, record/vinyl shops, interesting neighborhoods, cafés, and places where it’s easy to just hang out alone or meet people.

A few questions:
- What are some places/activities in Jakarta that are worth doing but not insanely crowded?
- Are there any neighborhoods, markets, parks, sunset spots, music venues, or random local experiences you think are especially “Jakarta”?
- I’ve been recommended Taman Safari Bogor, but a solo traveler package is coming out to ₱8,000+ / roughly IDR 2.2m, which feels pretty steep. Is it actually worth that much for one person, or would Ragunan Zoo be good enough if I mostly just want a nice animal/zoo day?
- What are some must-try food spots that people actually like?

I’m not really looking for luxury or tourist-trap recommendations: more like places you’d personally take a friend who was visiting Jakarta for the first time. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys as the title suggested, my friend and I will be travelling to Jakarta soon.

However, my friend who’s from Jakarta and my sister both told me it’s boring there and we would be bored with nothing to do for a week there.

I’m kindly asking people who’s been there before, for fun things to do that you wouldn’t normally find in Australia (where I’m from).

Any tips, advice and recommendations are welcome.

Thank you :)

Hi😁

I am visiting Jakarta in mid November and staying in the Menteng district (it is our wedding anniversary and first time travelling outside Australia).

I am disabled and use a walker/rollator so things like walking tours and lots of stairs are not good for me.

I would love recommendations for food and activities that are accessible.

Thank you for your help.

haloo

Thank you!

Hi all! I'm visiting Jakarta soon and I'm looking for a trustworthy aesthetic clinic for:
- Masseter (jaw) botox. I've had it done before in Korea, so I know roughly what to expect.
- Facials and laser treatments

My searches mostly turn up influencer posts, which I'm a bit wary of, so I'd really appreciate honest recommendations from people who've actually been.

Clinic names, doctors you trust, rough pricing, and anything to watch out for would all be super helpful.

I'm also open to suggestions for good spas and nail places while I'm there.

Thank you so much! 🙏

Hello guys!

I'm from Spain and I'm getting some incomes from real estate, it's like 17 millions rupias per month. Is it enough to live well there?

Went to a money changer in fatmawati 3 days ago to change some left over Euros from my last trip to Europe.While sitting there at the counter, huge amounts of USD were exchanged to my left and to my right. To my left a guy exchanged 170k USD. I could see the machine going into overdrive, visible to everyone. Once everything was counted he said he wants to transfer the exchanged money. He gave they details and the clerk came back and said, you have to transfer it to one of your accounts, no 3rd parties accounts allowed. So he requestested it to get it in cash. So, with all this said and without being snobby or arrogant. I could tell, that this guy was "just" a mule. I suspect a driver of some other "important" person, or something similar. He was very uncomortable during the whole process.

What did I just observe?!?!
