I have lived in Kuta Lombok for 1 year now. Visiting for 10 years. There's a lot of "I heard this" and "all blonde women that". There are security concerns sure. More so than Bali? I don't know. I don't live there. With a few simple common sense precautions it is a pretty safe place. I have a...
I will keep that in mind Gilbert. I hope to be going to Bali from Lombok for some surf shop supplies and may p/u some spirits for the homestay at the same time. Pity I am one of those fellows who shouldn't and doesn't partake in alcohol so it will all be for profit.
A guest at our homestay was recently trekking the jungle in Sumatra. He showed me a sequence of fotos taken over a span of a few days where his face was extremely swollen. He was told by his guides that he had been bitten by a catepillar. I guess to some Indonesiand if it doesn't kill you it's...
Hello. I am looking for a flat roof product. I have a few seperate concrete structures each with a small (about 20 sq. meters) flat area. Hoping for a cold process system elastomeric or plastic cement with reinforcing webbing or roll roofing. Cold process would be easier to apply than a...
Kitas app has been accepted and submitted. On it's way to Jakarta. I extended my social visa so it won't expire during the process. Thanks to everyone who helped me with advise etc.
Like I said, we were told it is a new law. We seem to have gotten past that part though. We had a stamp by Indo embassy in USA on the back of a marriage cert copy we used there. They will accept that. Still woking on other things for the kitas app. Limited funds so no agent.
Funny thing. We are both Muslim. We wanted to migrate to U.S. 8 yrs ago. My U.S. immigration lawyer said if we are already married it is a long process since it requires permenant resident process. Go on a fiance visa and start permenant resident processwhile already in the U.S. My wife's family...
You aren't missing anything. I am the one that missed I guess. My wife visited the Indonesian embassy in Los Angeles several times i.e. passports for our 2 kids and renewal of her passport. I would have thought the subject of our marriage would have come up then. We are both of the same religion...
I entered Indo on a t.o.a visa. Went to Singapore and changed to spouse sponsored sosbud to qualify for kitas and re-entered at Lombok. Immigratio in Mataram wants our U.S. marriage cert recorded at office of records. They won't register it because nothing stating we are of the same...

Malik took good care of me. Ended up saving me money as Singapore/Lombok flight is only 3 times a week and I didn't want to fly through Bali. He got it same day. Embassy told it would take me 2 days. I would have had to d/o Tues am, p/u thurs pm same time as the flight.Which means I would have...
I contacted Malik. He picked up 1st time on a saturday evening. Sounded very accomadating. Asked me to call when I arrive. As far as Geylang it appears that is where there are alot of budget hotels. Probable for good reason. But most have favorable reviews.
I will go to Singapore Monday pm for 5 days. Looking for a cheap room near indo embassy. Fan, cold water etc. I am not familar with the place and don't know what to expect. Also, public transport possible. Any cheap activities and sights? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thank you Gilbert. That is a big help. On top of that I would have to factor in comprehensive insurance. Not a cheap proposition all said. But we will need transport to support our new homestay. No getting around it.
