Some questions about Living in Jakarta ...
(Miree) Hi Miree,How are you? What happened to you website? I couldn't access it for the past few days. First of all, I wanted to thank you for the leads on Robert's Furniture and the Kemang Travel Agency, both of which I had the pleasure of dealing with. Also, I was wondering if you have answers to my questions re Jakarta stuff:
1. Would you know of a good but inexpensive carpenter who can do simplecarpentry work/repairs around the house?
2. I have a glass door from the living room leading to the garden and would like to add a screen door to allow the air in. Would you know ofa good but inexpensive supplier who can do this? I had it quoted before and they gave me a very expensive quotation of Rp220M!
3. Would you know of a cabinet supplier who can add a plywood or MDF cabinet under the stairs?
4. Would you know of a good supplier who can make upholstered furniture?
5. Lastly, is there a reputable/legit masseuse/reflexologist who can go to my house for home service? I tried surfing the net for this and the results that came out are the shady services. Help! Many thanks!
(Miree) Hi Mireille, Great to hear that the furniture hunting succeed! Am doing great and currently visiting my family in New Zealand. I am sorry about unaccessable - sometimes network down for maintenance... not sure ;)

Bus Route and Map in Jakarta ?
(Wilhelmina) Hi Miree, My husband and me like to travel around by public transport. There is obviously an extensive network of buses throughout the city and the surrounding villages, but so far we have not been able to find out which bus goes were. Where do we get this information? And are there maps available of the existing bus routes? We have also been looking for a good map of Jakarta, but so far we have only been able to find maps without any reference to street names etc. And since taxi drivers do not always know where things are, we would like to have a map that actually gives references to locations. To give you but one example: it took us an hour and a half and 2 taxis to get to the Gedung Kesenian because neither taxi driver knew where it was. We look forward to hearing from you.
(Miree) Hi Wilhelmina, You can find most bus route troughout the city and the surrounding villages by contact travel agents. Mostly they will have packages to offers.You can try to contact :

And the best map directory of Jakarta is "Jabotek"distributed by PT Java Books Indonesia, which can be purchased in hardcopy or CD-rom from any major book store such as Gramedia, Periplus or Aksara Kemang.The next best thing to find your way around Jakarta is to purchase a GPSsystem - the maps for Jakarta are getting better and better all the timeand a lot of people are succesfully using GPS systems in Jakarta.

Where to find gorgeous western women to date in Jakarta?
(Withheld) Hi Miree, Enjoy your blog, just a quick question.
I'm a 47-year-old Australian male and I've been in Jakarta for 10 months now and I'd love to find a gorgeous western woman to date. They are pretty thin on the ground. Where are they all hiding? I have absolutely no interest in the locals.
(Miree) Jakarta is certainly not a usual posting destination for single expatriate women - and normally the only place you will find them is atthe International Schools. Typically the main places you will find them having after-school drinks is at Satu Lagi bar at Hotel Kristal - or at De Hooi at Pondok Indah. Happy hunting!

Thanks very much for your help!
