Hi all, will be in Jakarta from tomorrow night till Sat.
Staying at Hotel Kempinski. Any bros can recommend places to go, or wanna meet up and go explore together?
Been to Jakarta a few times but never really explored the entertainment options previously...
Good luck staying near bundaran HI area especially on friday cos I heard thats where the demostration/protest/rally might start/be. Suggest u better check the situation thurs n friday morning before planning any activities to go out.
Update:
Seems like false alarm?? probably the rally will only be around MONAS area. But anyway be safe.

Jakarta Police are preparing several arrangements to reroute the capital’s traffic in anticipation of heightened gridlock around venues likely to be used by Islamic hard-line protesters, who are planning to stage a rally to demand Jakarta Governor Basuki “Ahok” Tjahaja Purnama be prosecuted for alleged religious defamation this Nov. 4.
“The traffic diversion will depend on the situation. The protesters will likely stage the demonstration at the National Police’s Criminal Investigation Department (Bareskrim) office, City Hall and the State Palace,” traffic police law enforcement unit head Adj. Sr. Comr. Budiyanto said Tuesday.
Bareskrim’s office is located on Jl. Medan Merdeka Timur, while City Hall is on Jl. Medan Merdeka Selatan and the State Palace on Jl. Medan Merdeka Utara, all of which are in Central Jakarta.
If the rally is staged at Bareskrim’s office, vehicles heading to Jl. Medan Merdeka Timur from Jl. Gajah Mada, Jl. Kebon Sirih, and Jl. Budi Kemuliaan will be diverted to Jl. Cikini Raya and Jl. Thamrin.
Should the rally be conducted at City Hall, vehicles from Jl. Gunung Sahari and Jl. Veteran Raya will be rerouted to Jl. Cikini Raya, while vehicles from Jl. Budi Kemuliaan will be switched to Jl. Thamrin and Jl. Medan Merdeka Barat.
Meanwhile, if demonstrations take place at the State Palace, vehicles from Jl. Gajah Mada will be diverted to Jl. Juanda or Jl. Pejambon. Traffic from Jl. Budi Kemuliaan will have to make a detour through Jl. Majapahit, while traffic from Jl. Medan Merdeka Selatan will have to use Jl. Thamrin or Jl. Ridwan Rais.

Hi bro,
We can never be safe, but with all the pre rally warning...there should enough preparations to guard them.
Just do not be on the road when things happen..if need to go out plan ahead...
Cheers.

Malio is quite close.
I am game to meet up if you are

Are you (bro cooldoe) treating?? If so I really want to join, if go dutch also I am interested...
So paiseh...if bro chenszc have to for everything...at MARLIO some more...

If Bro Cooldoe is treating... where is the queue because i want to wait in line
But even if you share a bottle at Malio, costs can get quite high when you add in mixers, 30% SC, Lady drinks, and waitstaff tips. Also the bottle may not last long if you allow all the incoming lady dancers (and their friends) who stop by to drink from your bottle. They are trained to drink customer's Alcohol to consume more, so if you are in a very happy mood with the girls it will not last long
For this reason, i only allow the lady i wanna pull to drink with me (and perhaps 1 friend if im in good mood), otherwise my Whiskey will be finished in less than 1 hr.
If you wanna play budget at Malio, stick with Pitcher or Tower of Lokal Angor beer. Cheap and the ladies don't drink it - they just want the whiskey and hard liquor.
Hi, currently in Jakarta for a couple of nights. Besides BATS, Classic terminal, what other places to have a drink and have girls/FL to pick up? Thanks!
