The day during in Jakarta
I start to write what I have met and done during the length of stay in Jakarta – Indonesia for a meeting purpose. On 24 July 2008, I was tripped to Jakarta by Malaysian airline. We are recognized brand as “MH is Malaysian Hospitality”. First willing to choose one flight to one way direction to Jakarta without any transit in case for wasting time waiting, but the only concerned problem was the cost of the ticket were a little bit unaffordable so that the budget shall arrange only to fit with the trip and the length of stay with sufficient of the budget line that was provided by my own boss. In the day before scheduled on 24 July 2008, he gave me only 3 millions Riel which calculated equal in 721.31 USD. The amount of price I have deal with only a flight ticket plus reservation hotel. You know why “the ticket of one way direct to Jakarta cost 791 USD which is much more expensive than an actual budget holding on hand. Fortunately, having related flight schedule to Jakarta by MH 762 promotion which with having two way transit. It is means that I took a flight from Phnom Penh to be waited at Kular Lumpur for two and a half hours so that another one hour and twenty five minutes travelling from Kular Lumpur to Jakarta. I remembered that while it took off the flight, I was so tired and gotten sick on my ears since its air temperature pressure!
Just to remind a moment during I wait before transit to Jakarta. I sit on an armchair with using my personal PC connected with free Wi Fi at KLIA premises “Kular Lumpur International Airport” in chatting with few of friends in Cambodia while local time was 5:10 pm. More than surprising was that I was sitting and playing with program Yahoo messenger sending an SMS with buddies, there was one elderly woman age around 70 came to ask me if I can do her a favor by telling both marriage couple on the right side of my sit in notifying some advices. In fact, they were the same nationality as mine which is Cambodian people. They came for the first time trip to Melborn – Australia for living guaranteed by their daughter who had officially permission taken the parents under her control and responsibility. Elderly woman who is Australian nationality told me that “tell them to protect their health while landing to Melborn since the temperature outside would be around 14-16 C while would be force them having sick by its temperature change every single minutes mostly the raining cause infecting to get easily a snooze “Cold”. I could call that elderly woman just like grandma by considered an action she has been made with gentle of kindly. At the same time I was having lots of time to chat with them, explain them some kind of the departure gate way since they were suppose to be the first travelling before ready to get on board in an two hours more. Not for such a long, I have to say good bye to them instead before time was up to my flight since we were having flight different destination. You know! I was ready to go on Gate G02 with 20:45 minutes with flight MH 727 to Jakarta.
Lately evening: It was a little bit different between KL and JKT airport. You know that, I have to go first to the immigration Office for preparing 7 days Visa which cost 10 bucks. I noticed that it was crowd of people and traffic even local time at 10:00 o’clock.
So tiered since the arrival at 11:30 PM local time in Phnom Penh different for 1 hour time with a taxi driver it was because his car clock dead. In fact, Jakarta has the same hour with Phnom Penh but it still one hour different time with Malaysia. It was a bit pity for me having less financial trip for this meeting purpose. From the airport to the Batavia Hotel around 22 km spending his taxi fee cost Rp. 180,000 “appr. 20 bucks”, In an hour during a taxi drive me off to the Batavia Hotel, securities guard focus every surrounded car as such opening cap, doors, snap a mirror under the car to make sure there is nothing following with booms. It was protected by safe securities in recently situation in Indonesia against terrorism. It is not also the Batavia Hotel check for safe security before drive into the Hotel premises but every hotel and part of necessary premises in Jakarta.
Time to relax while check in with booked and already paid by AsiaBeds* (*AsisBeds: company partner link with PTM travel agency in Phnom Penh, they arrange the hotel and paid for me by Visa card) at Room #553 totally cost a night in 80 bucks.
25 July 2008: ARBC Meeting – 10:00 AM to 12:30PM
It is remarked that they said Hotel booked at Batavia proximately drive around 1 km to the Rizt Carlton Hotel but in fact it was nearly 10 km. I was really disappoint with PTM travel Agency. Because I have to spend Rp 40,000 “4.4 bucks” from Batavia to the Rizt Carlton. For that meeting was having a good feedback with our Rubber Association members from different countries chaired by KAPKINDO “Indonesia Rubber Association” I was only feeling uncomfortable for not having expressed any comments for this formal meeting mostly with topic “DATA Input” obligate shall provided by respective members. Meeting was also provided a lunch time so that I could save more money to hang out in walking and shopping mal.
Shopping mal before KAPKINDO Annual Dinner
It is nearly 5 hours shopping go up and down for waiting time before KAPKINDO Annual Dinner. I tell you, I do not feel comfortable with too much of people. If they let me stay in a week or a month without do anything besides shopping around, I would be nervous and stress. Look at everyone snap shot walking.
I was surprised that they called me in Indonesia language. They said I was an Indonesian people since the arrival at Jakarta. First guy at the immigration office said I look like folk in here. Second I took a taxi to the hotel, he said my face same with Indonesia people. Third while I was arrival to the Batavia Hotel, the reservation staff at the front office said am also Indonesia guy, while I took an elevator with someone accompany me, he also said I am Indonesian people….also when I arrived to the Rizt Carlton Hotel, open the door man said “I look like their people while face same like us” During the shopping mal, they talk with me in Indonesia language without any understanding at all. I look at my right and left side, there were lots of couple sitting and chatting in their language. Most people like to smoke I even can not stand on my noise to absorb those smoking cigarette “What the hell no prohibit in Smoking at public area esp. at the restaurant. This is the restaurant serving foods.
Well well well, time is up at 5:45 I have to go now finding taxi from this Carefour and Ambassador Apartment to the Rizt Carlton to have dinner. “It is a damn too smell of smocking cigarette now”
