    I enjoyed your videos on Jakarta. You visited places in Jakarta that I have never seen.
    I have lived in Jakarta more than 20 years but have never been to Bintaro (I think technically, Bintaro is not in Jakarta).
    Makes me realise I need to get out of my downtown centric life.
    All the best in the future.

      When you first arrive, for the first year, you don’t have a choice. You are housed in a gated community called Country Woods. If you have small children, this is the best option anyway. But in your second year, you are free to choose where you live. We chose Discovery because it’s really close to school and half the price of Country Woods. CW is also a bit of a goldfish bowl. Everyone knows each other’s business.

    7 years in ID and you don’t know an inkling on the backdrop of the masked figure with “the dude inside” collecting money. Make small attempts to know the culture of the land you are in mate . It goes a long way in understanding the people , or I guess they are just marauders passing by your expat life 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Please move to Malaysia because Malaysia is better than Indonesia in many aspects. Malaysia is a developed country, while Indonesia is a developing country. Malaysia is a First World country, while Indonesia is a Third World country. Malaysia is richer because our GDP (PPP and nominal) is bigger than Indonesia. Malaysians' IQ is also higher than Indonesians. Malaysia is a prosperous country because many Indonesians work abroad, including in Malaysia, but not a single Malaysian works abroad. Malaysians are fluent in English, while Indonesians can only speak Indonesian. Malaysia is very diverse because we have three "bangsa", namely Malay, Chinese and Indian, while Indonesia only has the "bangsa Indonesia". Malaysia also has delicious, hygienic and cheap food, unlike Indonesia where all food is like Indian food: bad, dirty and expensive. Bali is crowded with poor tourists, while Langkawi is crowded with jetset tourists. So what are you waiting for? Make a video about Malaysia right now, and your subscriber numbers will go up. Love from your Malaysian subscriber ❤️🇲🇾.
