Hello people,

I am married,50 years old and have still a daughter from 16 that has to follow me and my wife to Jakarta.
I am looking for somebody who know Jakarta and give me some information about :

1) finding information about renting houses in Jakarta Timur, if possible in regio Ciracas-Pasar Rebo.As close as possible to L'Oréal manufacturing plant.We are looking for a 3 bedroomhouse with ( if possible ) a small pool.

2) information about international schools or even the dutch/netherland school.We are dutch speaking Belgians so ...

3)adresses ,site's .......were I can find as much information as possible (in English )about Jakarta Timur.

I am leaving for Jakarta on the 20 april 2013 to do some prospection .

Thanks already for your informations and help.

Dear Nicu,

Karawaci is a good place to live in its like a modern city in the big city called Tangerang - Banten

They have famous big Mall " SUPERMAL KARAWACI"

Famous University "UNIVERSITAS PELITA HARAPAN"

Few apartemen there, the oldest one call "MENARA MATAHARI" or "AMARTAPURA"
but nowadays many new apartemen building there

http://www.lippovillage.com/page/kondom … aspx?sm=11

for school they have "PELITA HARAPAN SCHOOL" standard international School

Beside apartemen you can also stay in house/town house with 2 or 3 stories

many expatriate also living there, they come from UK, USA, India, Korea, Turkey, Japan.


hope it helps. Thank you

Best Regards,
Sandra
