Jakarta is the best kept secret in the world.

Has the beauty of CR mixed with the depravity of Thailand.

Everyone I speak to from other countries always say the same thing. American women are Biatchy, golddiggers and dont treat men the way they do in other countries. Women cook, clean, screw and treat the man with dignity. They rarely think of Divorce as on option and men cheat alot and it seems to be tolerated. I am not putting women down at all by sayin they should shut up and cook etc.... Simply reporting what Ive been told and I will say that the average "American Hottie" has been told her whole life that she can get $$$ with her looks so act like an icey biatch...cause you can....tooo much attitude here in America. European and Asian women any day for me. :103631605 Add in crackdowns on our essential freedoms such as gambling (land of the free) prostitution, and not to mention this whole Iraq mess and current administration ( they are screwin up the greatest country in the history of the world) and you have a recipe for people wanting to just "take a freakin break from this sh*t and get away for awhile." ok sorry for the rant .:smoker2:

Nice rant. Problem is foreign women want an American man (besides money) is because he tends to treat a woman with more respect. Women from Asia or Latin America are hoping you won't cheat on them and are thrilled at the thought you won't beat them or denigrate them on a regular basis. Further they like how American men are accepting of a woman's wishes for career and a social life not solely involving family and husband. Reason why you aren't expected to do this is because American women won't let you get away with it. Just be prepared for challenges if you hope the girl you meet is meek and has some of the characteristics you don't like in American girls.

Even worse, what is your social circle going to be like? Its no wonder in most parts of the world they have an expat society around, I mean how do foreigners even mingle or get locals into their lives.

:money8: When you are an ex-pat living in a foreign country where the vast majority of people are poor (like CR or Thailand, for instance), gringos with some cash tend to develope a following. It's like a bastard feudal system of sorts. First they hire a maid, then a handy-man or maybe a taxi driver...and before they know it, there are 15 or 20 people connected to the ex-pat for survival or subsistence in some way.

I would love to meet you there VD. However, I don't have enough vacation time since I have to take vacation days now between Christmas and New Year's. I'll have some saved up in the last half of the year when I'll visit Singapore and take a side trip to the Land of Smiles.

Let me know if you're in the area during the last half of the year.

What part of Jakarta is good to go to?

From what I hear Jakarta is a pit. Dangerous to Westerners and the traffic is horrendous. Some of the people I worked with in Singapore had to work there for a few weeks and none of them wanted to go back.

I will vouch for the depravity of Indonesia. I've been to a small island near Singapore called Batam, Indonesia so I know of what you speak.
