Been to Jakarta twice , loved the place , but the only problem is that only few understand English !
Why is it so hard to communicate

Anyways , if any expats/locals here in this forum are looking for a meetup let me know .

Coffee should be great .

Perhaps I could request you don't post in caps lock as that is considered rude on this platform.

Make sure to write correctly and clearly on the forum so that everyone can understand: avoid cap locks and SMS language.

Perhaps you could say what your friend is looking for, perhaps language exchange or maybe she just has free time and wants to meet new people.

I thank you all for the replies , but it was just one day in Jakarta and I got caught up repairing my phone which fell in the water @ Bali .

Had to ride my way down to ITC Roxy Mas , I would recommend that place if someone is looking to fix or buy a phone / accessories .

Regarding meetup , well next time hopefully if I stay longer in Jakarta .
