Indonesia Report

Hello loyal readers.

In case you're wondering where I have gone, I can reveal it: at the moment I am in Cikarang, a town near Jakarta, Indonesia.

I am visiting my... agent here and I'll be away for another 10 days or so.

Situation is more or less as usual here: hot, humid and, in the city, severely polluted. Old, battered and rickety buses rumble along emitting clouds of thick black smoke.

I have also seen the civil registrar office of Jakarta, and dismal is not enough to describe the place. It seem to be undergoing renovation, at least.

A heavy rain squall ended not long ago; now I'm about to go downstairs and grab some lunch.
