Indonesia & Jakarta - Page 13

its funny, ask trolol and the posts are embellished, ask jspill or dace and im posting about nothing, odd how the internet works

yes i did at dee's, and no i had never heard blok m sucked and had read about it at least 20 times

i just typed 'blok m jakarta bars' into google and clicked the first two links.

the first link took me to a website that looks like it hasn't been updated since the 90's so i ignored it.

the next link took me to jakarta100bars. a brief read of the article (from 2011) and a quick browse of the comments indicated to me that the place sucks.

you need to be a more efficient in how you process information.

Is it classed as embellishing if someone were wrote a book or articles on places they'd never been to before?

You won't..Like i told you..If such a thing happened,it only because someone snitch you and they're looking for money..(for online)but if you play home game, that's a different story

To be fair it's an ok question given how ******ed some of indonesia's laws are, like years in prison for smoking a joint. Can't blame him for triple checking.

But no there isn't any effort by the authorities to track down and arrest foreigners playing online poker on offshore sites in a foreign currency, privately at home. Same thing across asia, there's only a general 'gambling is illegal' umbrella for the locals. Just don't talk about it and it's fine.

I heard you were trying to set up your own blog for side income (strange after making fun of others 'a sexpat blog is not passive income' etc.

) why not stick it on there.
