Well done BTK on the new point guard.Both my kids have Aussie and Indo passports.We had the piece of paper in the Aussie passport, but it caused a problem once in Japan , as nobody there understood Indonesian. My wife handles all the Indo stuff and l do all the Aussie paperwork. We were amongst...

Go to the Honda dealer on the Cnr of Jln Diponegoro and Gatot Subroto, near the Toyota Car dealer , in Denasar.They have one in the shop, but you can only test drive inside the dealers premises, cost, about 30 million rupiah. Keep yourself alive...buy/rent a car

Those bloody speakers, how about an alarm clock, or we buy them all one of those stupid alarm clocks that wake you with the call to prayer. Imagine if every religion had speakers blarring every morning at 5am...what a racket.

Dont mean to be rude, but isn't all of Canada english speaking, except for the unusual Quebec? Funny, l was with a friend from France in Quebec years ago, he had difficulty understanding the accent in Quebec...nice place, a little quirky

Yeah , BTK, BBM....go out with a group of Indonesian women and all you here is , ping, ping, ping, with those bloody messages going off.They spend more time messaging and checking messages than they do interacting with real people. As for which model...dont know, the old style with the...

The only reason Blackberry is so popular here is the free push mail.Personally l prefer an iphone. I was given one for free and wouldn't use any other... Mind you, we also have 3 ipads in the house, the kids never use the laptop any more. I recently bought my wife an iphone4 in Hong Kong for...

Too true, l also remember the last price rise...any excuse for a quick buck/rupiah

No these were being sold at traditionl markets in Lampung,any excuse for a price hike. But hey, why not, everything elsevis from China these days. I'm going back to China again next month, 4th trip there in the last 6 months.

I have just read in todays Jakarta Post that the cost of red chilli has risen from rp 11.000kg up to rp25.000kg, due to the impending fuel increase.How in the hell does a 33% increase in fuel costs, justify a 120% increase in chilli??? Maybe they spray the crops with petrol instead of water...

Could not and will never have a F1 race in any part of Indonesia...can't even have uninterupted power supply on that island.Take it away from Singapore....never laughed so much ever.

True, nothing new about the FO/FI crew What really gets me going, is the continued use of calling Canggu/ Batu Mejan as Echo Beach. There is no such place...why don't we rename all the beaches in Bali after a local business. When people say they surfed or ate at Echo Beach, l respond with...

Yeah, l read this earlier today.what cracks me up, is that they say energy makes up 30% of operational costs and they are only putting up the price by half of that, 15%. Great, but enegy costs would be electricity for a hotel ....not bloody petrol. Every time we have a petrol increase ,it is...

Bali waste management...throw it, burn it.

You will still be at fault here in most cases that l have seen/heard of. Logic here is not a word, when it comes to sorting out traffic related issues. Even when l had a license here, 1 time a fool came straight of a lane and ran into my car my on the side, he fell off, me, l just kept going...

Why get a license...30% of the drivers here dont have one... I haven't bothered for years. What with 10 year olds riding to school ....why bother...it's cowboy town.

Up was a great movie

While l agree with Adam to a point. The attitude that westeners have no right to be here is toally wrong. Hey, my wife is Balinese and my kids were born here. When a tourist or a local says you have no right being here , yes l do.We are a family and have every right to be living together. As...

I have been a member for 4 years... I use it every day. There us nothing else anywhere that offers all the facilities for a reasonble price here in Bali

It never ceases to amaze me about these sort of stories here.I have heard many similar stories over the years, how they were resolved, l do not know. The funny thing is, try getting a book on road rules in ths country.....there isn't any. Driving here is a daily nightmare and its only going to...

There is fibre optic cable already laid here in Canggu, Global Extreme can offer the service fairly soon, we are talking weeks from now.....yeah
