2 Nights @ Jakarta



This is my second visit to Jakarta for business trip. I am staying in Le Meridien again, but this time I get to stay in at the Starwood Preferred Guest Floor. Don't ask me - until now, I still can't see any difference staying at the floor.

Both trip was a very rushing trip. During my first trip, I took cab to Plaza Indonesia and Senayan City. The shopping malls here are superb! To be honest, its much more gigantic than any of those in KL.

Last night my colleague brought me to Grand Indonesia (which is just next to Plaza Indonesia). We had dinner at Y&Y restaurant serving rice, pasta, and steak...We shared a lot cultural difference etc. And later, he brought me to a local street called 'Jalan Pecendongan' to experience the local street food. We went for desert by the street. For once, I get to feel a very local experience. I had 'Es Shanghai' (Es = Ais). The serving is like our local Ais Kacang but for 'Es Shanghai' - the ingredient is Coconut, avacodo and banana...I tried the otak-otak as well. The wrap is the same with Johor Otak Otak but the otak-otak itself tasted like fish ball. The unique thing about this otak-otak is we have it by dipping into peanut sauce...

Am going on board to MH710 - looking forward to go home now :)

"Policeman who is not wearing his uniform does not have the authority to stop anyone," lawyer and human rights activist Sivarasa Rasiah said. Sivarasa was commenting on the alleged gang-rape of an 18-year-old Uni student by four men claiming to be police officers on New Year's Eve. The girl said that her car was stopped in Taman Tun Dr Ismail in Kuala Lumpur and were asked by the men to open the car bonnet. She was then told that she had committed an offence and ordered to follow the men to a police station. The girl was driven in her car along the North-South expressway to the Tapah-Cameron Highlands road before...
