Query regarding KITAS

(Apoorva) Hi,I have lost my KITAS. Can you please let me know the process for getting s duplicate. Thanks and Regards.

(Miree) Hi Apoorva, first thing you need to do is to report it to the police station, then you will need to get your office to help or find a vendor to get a duplicate made for you, but who ever you use will need a copy of the report for the authorities. Process for a duplicate, timing & cost is similar to getting an original KITAS. The police don't speak English very well so better come with someone speak both language. Regards.

Where to buy second hand golf clubs?

(Jenny) Hi Miree, I was wondering if you knew any places in Jakarta that sell second hand golf clubs? Alternatively, are there any websites, or newspapers which I might access to help my search. Many thanks


(Miree) Hi Jenny, most of pro-shops at the driving ranges also sell 2nd hand clubs. Suggest you visit some of the driving ranges i.e. Cilandak next to Cilandak Commercial Estate KKO or Prestasi driving range in BEJ circle.

Or you can always check WhatsNewJakarta Grage Sale's page. Goodluck!

Curious about the Scottish Fest

(Ulfa) Hello, Miree! How d'ya do? First of all, I'm glad to have found your address after a rigorous search in the net about Jakarta Highland Gathering 2009's schedule which I haven't been able to find so far. Anyway, I'm Ulfa residing in Jakarta Selatan and a university student majoring English Letters. I'd love to come to and participate in any cultural events held by any international communities in Jakarta in order to improve my English speaking ability.^_^. and, of course, to get more friends and broaden my horizon about other cultures. The thing is that I often miss such events cause I don't have any reliable sources to inform me about the international agenda going around here, like the Jakarta Highland Gathering 2009. I heard that it would be held on Sunday, May 24, 2009, but it's still not confirmed yet. So, would you please help me getting information on that and other events? Thank you for your big help. Warm regards, Ulfa

(Miree) Dear Ulfa, please visit www.WhatsNewJakarta.com to find all English speaking upcoming events. About Highland Gathering 2009 - last time we heard it still being postponed. Happy networking! Cheers, Miree
