    Spouse KITAS to Spouse KITAP

    19 June is still over 2 years from the May dates given. Your KITAS expired 19 June and your KITAP will start the same day. Doesn't matter when you submit your application. You could for peace of mind make a trip to Immigration and ask to see if your agent has any clue to what they are saying.

    Big Improvement In West Java Schools

    Indonesia is not cutting free meals. Just the opposite, free meals for all public school attendees and pregnant women is now in effect. What I would suggest is that free meals in schools be based on income levels where some get free, some get reduced, and some pay full. It's the US that wants to...

    Yeah, could be because it takes specialist to move and place RR Ties, set bricks, and dig holes.

    Big Improvement In West Java Schools

    We already know what they think of allowing foreigners in to help with anything. The better solution would be further education programs to send teachers to better teaching focused schools abroad. Unfortunately the scholarship programs for government personnel to further their studies is on the...

    That seems to be the problem. Indonesian laborers are saying that they work side by side with Chinese laborers. Brought in under management status but actually only general laborers.

    True on the additional cost. Indonesian always proclaims education is free but refuses to acknowledge the additional cost the school administration and teachers put in the schools. The cost of uniforms alone keeps many students from getting enrolled due to family financial situations. I have...

    Trumponomics

    I guess it's good you at least support one power. I just can't support any of them. It's a damned if you do or damned if you don't government and even trump won't change that aspect. Make it worse in all likelyhood but still there. I decided to retire early and move to Indonesia right before...

    That's managerial positions. What about general laborers?

    Trumponomics

    Some don't understand that bitter and aggressive is generally a targeted trait. We both know we will never agree on any trump action. OK, I agree there is a definite Immigration problem but not so much about the improvement methods.

    Deportation and revoke blacklist

    When you get elected to the Indonesian DPR be sure to bring that up. Until then, they and the President with Ministers call the shots. Call Prabowo.

    No, the majority of the Chinese workers are common laborers, the same as the Indonesians. They are listed as managers for Immigration approval sake only.

    Deportation and revoke blacklist

    Rp 90,000,000 to get removed from a blacklist is great incentive to not get blacklisted.

    Trumponomics

    First off, that crap about trump being the first president to identify and do something about miss spending is a laugh. No, trump raped entire agencies, then gave a few examples of miss spending of which the majority have been proven to be untrue. You don't fix the flat tire by pushing the car...

    They protest because they have to work side by side with Chinese laborers who get visas by being listed as managers. I'm not sure of the current regulations but at one time it was you had to have 10 Indonesian workers for every 1 foreign workers. Management was excluded from the numbers.

    And the Labor Union members protest that the Chinese are taking their jobs and government counters with they are all legal by Immigration regulations. If the government continues to let Chinese investments go wild then the future will certainly bring in more Chinese workers causing more protest.
