    Traveling by plane within a month of recovering from covid

    Update: If you're American, wish to travel FROM Indonesia to USA and have recently tested positive for covid-19 but posses a letter of recovery, you can travel to the USA no problem without getting a PCR test. The letter is effective for a few months for traveling back to the USA. In my case...

    Traveling by plane within a month of recovering from covid

    It's easy to make a fake letter, but if yeah, hopefully this is the case. I guess I'll be taking a bit of a gamble.

    Traveling by plane within a month of recovering from covid

    Well if i'm asking the same question and it's not getting answered, then maybe the wrong people are responding or I'm asking the wrong people? I'm asking here so that if anyone who has been through this situation can shed some light on it or if someone finds themself in the same situation...

    Traveling by plane within a month of recovering from covid

    Ok so from what I've gathered from CDC and other sources of info... 1. I can travel to USA no problem if I get a negative pcr test. My child has a letter of recovery and her positive covid-19 results. Her papers are good for 3 months from what I've read. She's happy that she doesn't need a...

    Traveling by plane within a month of recovering from covid

    Oh that's an important part I left out. I am American and so is my daughter. No visa issues. I'm on KITAP so re-entry to Indonesia is basically no problem. My daughter holds dual citizenship from Indonesia and USA.

    Traveling by plane within a month of recovering from covid

    Quick bit: My daughter caught covid-19 late last month and recovered earlier this month. We have plans to travel on 30 August to visit family in the USA. My fear is that during that 72 hour period prior to departure, her test will come back positive since it will have to be the PCR test and...

    video cards

    I'm only mildly pulling legs here. My laptop has a GeForce RTX 3060 with 6gb ram and a 144hz screen. I think the price was 17 juta for this. shrugs I recall a time when upgrading your computer meant changing out your cpu or upgrading your ram. But these days it seems more like you have to...

    Indonesia to extend mandatory quarantine to 14 days for travellers from some countries.

    There's some exceptions to what you're saying. You do not need a vaccination if you've got a medical condition with a doctors note or if you are underage for the vaccination. I'm already vaccinated with CovidVac but do plan on getting another jab in the USA. Kiddo is underage for that but...

    video cards

    Consider having a look at gaming laptops. It might be cheaper than buying a graphics card for your desktop.

    Indonesia to extend mandatory quarantine to 14 days for travellers from some countries.

    My apologies if this has been answered, but I did read something that sounded like I'll need some health papers or god knows what from the "health authority" in the USA...whatever that is. I recently booked a flight but I'm struggling a bit with what's needed to return to Indonesia. I'm WNA on...

    Just an update... I downloaded the PLN app and ordered an upgrade. Cost was about 4.3 million and its going to post paid now since they dont have the prepaid system available. (payment includes a deposit) My neighbor who does PLN work offered to do the work for 8 million. 4.3 million...

    How to get 3 phase electricty?

    Thank you both for your responses. That list absolutely helps. I deal with some stupid anxiety issues when it comes to stuff like going to PLN by myself. The meter is currently in my wife's name and I don't think is a big deal to just order via the PLN app. The app had her verify herself with...

    How to get 3 phase electricty?

    I require a 3 phase electric connection to run a piece of machinery and was wondering if anyone has had experience in doing this through PLN. Currently I have a 7700w single phase connection, equipment requires 5500w three phase connection. An inverter could be used but the machine builder is...

    I got the SinoVac or as they call it CovidVac. I registered through my church as they were taking registrations. Ended up getting my shot at the PUSKESMAS next to Gereja Immanuel (in same complex as it), its across the street from Stasiun Gambir. If you are elderly or disabled or got some...

    Pvc glue?

    I'm from the USA and when I was a kid, I'd always see my dad messing around with the sprinkler system. He used PVC pipe and whenever he'd glue them together, he'd use a primer and then the cement. Enter Indonesia... Is the technology for PVC pipe glue here more advanced? Because I've never...

    Adopting a child

    We have some family here who adopted a child from Papua. I don't mind having to travel to Bali, not like it's a horrible place to visit. I'll take any leads at this. Our assumption is that we need to go through this Yayasan Sayap Ibu as they're the ones authorized in the area to do social...
