Jakarta, Indonesia - In today's video we are going to visit a very modern and rich area in Jakarta. It's called SCBD, which stands for Sudirman Central Business District. High skyscrapers, modern and huge malls, hardly any street food stalls or street vendors - certainly a very big contrast to the areas of Jakarta, we have seen in my previous videos. Join me as we explore Jakarta SCBD.

Ketaman Mini Jakarta bro, the newest place, the place is beautiful, comfortable and cool.....

Good looking area,you might want to visit slum area ?
Jakarta has 3 face : good,ordinary,slum
Coba pergi ke PIk PIK 2 🎉
is crazy how cheap indonesia is do they even earn any money
Hiii Ken, you should try visiting the PIK and PIK2 area 🥳🎉
I’m glad you actually mentioned how other content creators almost always have (____) surprised me or can’t believe this is (____) with their thumbnails with shocked faces or open mouths. I mean, were they expecting rice paddies all over the biggest cities in Southeast Asia? Don’t get me wrong, that’s their choice to go in that direction content wise but it gets tired when seemingly they all follow a template. That’s why I like Ken because he really gets to a know a city by going to super local places. It’s refreshing.
Yes I agree with you they all blur together and it's boring. That's why Ken is so interesting 😊
Nothing was surprising from $55k Areas 😂
I agree, but he hasn't been to local places in Jakarta yet.
This episode made me fully understand the benefits of being tall, because you can clearly see the words on the wall inside the MRT carriage without any effort, haha!
Indonesian donuts look delicious too. I like all three flavors. They will go great with coffee!
Vendors cannot enter the modern area, they are well managed by the government!
Very happy to see you have added subscribers to Skywalk, thank you very much for sharing! 👍🤩🙏
Glad you enjoyed it!😊
@@KenAbroad It is my pleasure, I’m truly grateful for all you’ve done. 🙏
Mang tingginya berapa kak ??
Scbd bukannya swasta ??
You may also find J.Co (pronounce: Jay Ko) in Hongkong, Manila, Hanoi, Singapore, Kualalumpur, Saudi Arabia.. many foreigners say J.Co is the best Donut in the world.. 😊
My brother wife is Germany, and she love JCO donuts, everytimes they coming here to Indonesia they always take Jco donuts souvenir for her parents.
Welcome to Indonesia 😍. The country with the largest economy in Southeast Asia. Jakarta is a big city. Modern area Jkt yg lain ada Mega Kuningan, Rasuna Epicentrum, Kelapa Gading, PIK, Jakarta International Stadium, Bundaran HI, Central Park, and others. Serpong dan BSD City di Tangerang dekat Jakarta juga bagus. Indonesia banyak kota kota besar yang lain juga
Taek..
Largest economy in Southeast Asia? It's okay to be patriotic but if you ignore facts, no one will take you seriously. Singapore and Malaysia are both ahead of Indonesia.
@@edenassosDoes the largest economic country always steal culture and be jealous of Indonesia?LOL
Yes, Indonesia it’s the largest economy in south east Asia with 1,319,100 GDP which is Singapore is the Third and Malaysia is the 5th
Jakarta is sooo beautiful .love from Lanka🇱🇰❤️
Indonesia is wowwwww and big country . . Bulan depan indonesia menjadi tuan rumah World Cup U-17 diselenggarakan di kota Surabaya, Surakarta, Bandung, dan Jakarta. I love soccer
Yg kumuh msih bnyak
Jakarta is not only about the skyscrapers, slums area, traffic jam, etc, but there are also exotic islands at the north side called kepulauan seribu (thousand islands), this place is underrated and less foreigners btw. You can go there by speedboat from Kaliadem port or Marina Ancol
Malaysia kumuh kotor
@@Amirul35162Singapura ap yg mau di liat😂 bule bosen liat2 gedung2 bertingkat. Trus masyarakat Singapura sebanyak apa? 😂😂 Mkanya youtuber MLS bikin vlog di Singapur
Jakarta merupakan kota lengkap, sisi lain seperti Singapura dan sisi lainnya seperti di Bangladesh
normal, ibukota2 asia tenggara kecuali singapore dan brunei semuanya begitu wkwk
Bang jgn samain jakarta dg Singapura , apel sama apel bang , bukan apel dg semangka , Singapura kota kecil doang
Singapore yg mana Bangladesh yg mana ??
Bukannya semua Kota Dunia kayak gitu ??
Malaysia kumuh kotor 😅😅😅
singapura bagaikan semut,, jelas lah ter urus,, komenan kurang menakjubkan
Explore another area: Mega Kuningan, EPICENTRUM Rasuna Said, Kemang (expatriat area), Blok.M (take MRT to Lebak Bulus and get off at ASEAN CSW station), Central Park @Podomoro City, GBK + Pelataran Urban Park (just opposite to SCBD), Pondok Indah, Ancol (pronounce: Aan Chowl), Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (take LRT from Dukuh Atas station to Harjamukti CIBUBUR, get off at Tamini Station where you can get on free bus to Taman Mini)...
Wow Amazing SCBD Jakarta
terimakasih sudah berkunjung ke Indonesia
Terimakadih udah dateng jakarta
The most kind vlogger from abroad, happy and always smile
Loved to see this part of Jakarta thru' your eyes, Ken. Yeah, it looks similar to BGC of The Philippines ...very modern, clean and well maintained. Yummy JCO donuts and beef soup at a very clean street food stall. Great that you are using lots of this Grab motorbike taxi as your transportation there...fast and convenient. Haha...lots of selfies again at that Skywalk and picking up a few subscibers 👍👏
Well, Ken, this's indeed a pretty cool video to watch. Kudos to you for the great job. Thank you ! 🫰😍
SCBD Jakarta lebih modern dan rapih dari BGC Philippines
Malaysia kumuh kotor
@@asepsomarih2716 it's more fun in BGC than SCBD
You need to go PIK 2 (La Rivera, Aloha White Sand, Cove Batavia) in North Jakarta. Very modern and unique
I have visited Jakarta 3 times now with the recent visit a few months ago - great city, dynamic and manic traffic
The hot tropical weather that make asean country always has a lot big malls. People can strolling around for shopping, playing in amusement park, eating, hang out, go to cinema etc cos of the AC weather.
JAKARTA IS AMAZING
Indonesia is beautyful country
I like your narrative. simple but informative. 👍
Great content. I enjoyed watching it and loved it. Thanks for sharing it, Ken. 👍👍👍😍😍😍
ken , you must go to Pik 2 pancoran china town in north jakarta, go in the evening because more comfortable and nice in the evening, this area is big, so can go to area batavia pik n aloha pik. Jakarta is diverse so here you can see another vibes . maybe you can come to central park mall in the evening thats nice mall too.
take care ken, enjoy jakarta!!
It's a complete journey mate, awesome 👍🏾
luar biasa, Jakarta dengan segala kemajuan nya, sangat berkesan!
In UK we call the donut sprinkles, "hundred and thousands".
Love from Indonesian ❤
A very modern, clean and decent Jakarta Metro. It's indeed very easy and convenient to use it. Wow, SCBD is super beautiful, clean and modern.
Nice area 💪
@@KenAbroadYes, it's 💪
Ken,, Dankeschön dass du mein Heimat besucht,, es ist ein wunderschönes Land..🙏 👍
*Enjoy your day in Indonesia, nice video. 👍👍👍❤*
The 1st biggest Mall in Jakarta is Summarecon Mall Kelapa Gading, 150.000 m2, and the 2nd biggest is Grand Indonesia Mall, 140.000 m2 and the 3rd biggest is Mall Taman Anggrek 130.000 m2.
Ken, how about going northbound, find the area called PIK or PIK2
Yes
Nyari amoi ya bang 🤣
Santai di pantai 🏖️

terima kasih ken❤❤❤
Nice video Ken. I really enjoyed your video. If you still in Jakarta, you can visit a culinary event called Festival Jajanan Bango. Its an annual event where you can find so many traditional foods from all over Indonesia. in Istora Senayan. Near the MRT station
Jco also has affiliated breadshop called Mako (used to be called breadtalk, same boss), mako bread also very tasty. Can find mako breads in many shopping malls.
you should go to southern part of Jakarta, like Blok M area, theres a hangout place called Mbloc, it's good to see where local youth hangout
Mantap bro petualangannya
Ken, please explore another part of Indonesia, Jakarta is too busy and hot weather. Malang, Jogja, Bandung, West Sumatera, my homeland, so many amazing place, natural place and delicious food in every part of Indonesia 👍😍
From Padang West Sumatera, there is famous Nasi Padang with its must try icon : Beef Rendang ❤️
27:47 that mall is FX Sudirman the headquarters of the Indonesian idol group it's called "JKT48"
I agree with your comment about the 'modernization' of areas in Jakarta---and other cities. When you build new high rises, etc, you loose the flavor of the old city. That has happened in Bali and many other similar places which I believe is a great loss!! Great vid!
@@teddygunawan7517i know right?
dah lama ga ke SCBD seakrang ada street food rapi gitu toh, walau harganya ya kurang street sih mgkn emang sewanya mahal
Nice to see that part of Jakarta Ken, thanks. I love to follow you more, Greetings Till, Viele Grüsse aus Phuket Till
I suggest you going to the colonial side of Jakarta in the North. There are Dutch styled buildings in a small town called Kota Tua and there’s a museum near this place called Taman Fatahillah
Been there in the previous video✌️
Eventually a vlogger who doesn’t plaster his videos with titles surprised / shocked
I love german's walking culture
Next destination you must come to PIK Jakarta sir, and maybe after Jakarta trip, you must come to Bali and Labuan Bajo, specially Komodo National Park 😁
As usual, great vlog Ken , I like it 😊👍💕✨️ glad you got to meet new subscriber there
Happy to hear that, thanks 😊
Welcome to Indonesia I hope enjoyed and fun😅
You can find the original authentic of empal gentong in Cirebon city, west Java.
You can visit there also to know about what there's in because it is the historic City that recommended you have to go
explore around the islands of Java and Bali by motorcycle, starting from the northern route, crossing to the island of Bali then returning via the southern route to the island of Java to Jakarta again then finishing moving to another destination country, will be interesting content.. 🙏✌️
Ketaman Mini Jakarta bro, the newest place, the place is beautiful, comfortable and cool.....

love the fitness first there...my fav location
Primary modes of transport in Jakarta are KRL and Transjakarta BRT....MRT and LRT are only for supporting roles
Enjoy Jakarta dude...❤
Wao krenn jakarta ilov Indonesia
in this area.. you can find many foreign embassies, International financial offices, Indonesian stock exchange, six stars Hotel and Apartments. that's why you are not allowed to turn on the camera :-) but you can still face on camera toward your body...
I'm a big fan of your videos...watching from Cape Town, South Africa🇿🇦
Greetings to South Africa 🇿🇦
Come to Melbourne and check out the “vintage” heritage train station as comparison Ken….
Thanks ken
Try to visit to Mall Kelapa Gading, its much larger than Pacific Place Mall. Or Maybe visit Pondok Indah Mall or Grand Indonesia Mall, its also much larger than Pacific Place Mall.
7:47 There are a lot of expat workers from Indonesia in Saudi Arabia and also lots of Indonesian muslims going there for pilgrimage (Umrah or Hajj). That might explain why they're opening their shops there.
Love indonesia
Enjoy watching your journeys in Jakarta. BTW, the female station agent looked upset after you left the metro station for some reason. Safe travels.
the street vendor in 00:21:49 think you already pay using qris. Maybe she saw you pointing your phone through qris code and think you made a payment.
Diam-diam ternyata indonesia itu sudah maju juga yaa.
Have a nice trip 👏👏👏 Enjoy 👍
Sukses selalu buat anda 👍👍
Amazing let me start my preparation to come this mega city I was in Bangkok I love big skyscrapers
# visitsrilanka ❤ from 🇱🇰 Sri Lanka......😮 stay in Sri Lanka ...Live like Sri Lankan...Keep Explore 👍
Ken. You were wrong when exit from the right. It's must be from the left and you directly come to SCBD and there is also escalator if you asked you can get the escalator.
wow this whole video is so entertaining, the mall there is mind-blowing 🤩😁 i will always look forward to your videos! thank you for entertaining my day always
Thank you 🙏
I like BundesLiga also, my favorit clun in Germany is F.C. Schalke04
Very nice
Welcome to aloha PIK 2 Jakarta, Indonesian
Ken...👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
buat para pengendara motor/mobil, kalo ada orang menyebrang di zebra cross itu kalian mesti berhenti, lebih mengutamakan pejalan kaki...aturannya begitu.
Wow ❤ from philippines
Mr Ken, should the farmous goat fried rice culinary located in kebon sirih jakarta....

*_Jakarta satu2nya Méga City di Asia Tenggara..._*

Try Bandar Djakarta in Ancol, best place for Seafood
Hello Mr Ken nice to see again the picture you video is very nice please let me know what camera you use to video the places and any equipments requirements. Thks.
I'm using a DJI action 3 ✌️
Mantap indonesia
the gate has a sensor on it, if you haven't tap the card on the card reader, it will closed automatically as you pass through the gate
you can actually crossed the road by going down to the mrt station, that's what i always do 😂
I enjoyed watching your vlogs.. Itt felt nice and comfortable watching it. Will support. Thank you. Have a great day ahead!
Thank you very much and have a nice day too 🙏
Next explore to mega kuningan area & rasuna epicentrum, bro.
Maybe it can be said that JCO donuts are the best and most delicious donuts in Southeast Asia. I hope this donut can be found in Thailand, Vietnam and outside Southeast Asia. Both the texture and taste are very delicious and are famous in several flavors and very many variants. This is not a promotion but my personal experience in Southeast Asia.
We Thais are not donut fans. Only Dunkin Donuts is enough.
Hallo ken Abroad !
Cobain dong kuliner lokal original indonesia , seperti nasi + rendang , bakso , soto , sate kambing , ketoprak , gado gado .
Kalau saya suka donut yang tengahnya bolong,,mantab itu..😅😅❤❤
Go to Bandung and try KCIC (High Speed Train) the first HST in Southeast Asia..
Or just take regular train PARAHIYANGAN (2 classes available) or PANORAMIC Train..
Bandung is interesting..
He did do the vlog about your high speed train a few weeks ago.
Always a pleasure to watch you out and about Ken, thank you. In Australia we call those coloured sprinkles 'hundreds and thousands' 😊
