My Jakarta Links

Yessie, everyone. I'm an Indonesian. Jakarta is where I was born in 1982 and I lived there till about when I was 8, then I went abroad for my education.

I gotta say my memories of the city of Jakarta, though aren't the most beautiful ones I've ever had, are very much unforgettable: my family's favourite haunts, the theatre we go to catch a movie or two, the store we go to for books, my mom's favourite fruit store in "kota" (city), etc.

Recently, riots broke out and terrible things happened in Jakarta. I hope this will stop and life can get back to normal: the way we like it...
