Jakarta Flood in animation

0 comments
Jakarta is prone to flood. At certain period, it's terrible. You guys plan to go to Jakarta Indonesia, beware of this disaster.

The flollowing is a satire, a depiction of such a condition of a regular disaster responded with apathetic manner Jakarta's devastated by the floods and for such a thing many people just take it easy.

Another version of this video  clip: Banjir Jakarta (Animasi lucu). I completed as soon as I had arrived home from the train station, which cancelled its regular trip and served only halfway, due to the terrible flood.Then I decided to add an English subtitle to a similar video clip so that you can understand what the man is talking about here.

January 17th 2013 was a terrible situation we had here in Jakarta, Floods were everywhere blocking access to any vital destinations, and by the time I am writing this post, the evacuations are still being carried on. I hope everything will turn to get normal soon.

Pray for Jakarta, everyone..

Visit Jalan Jaksa, it is internationally known by tourist

0 comments
Are you mobile? Do you like traveling? Ever visited Jakarta? Stop by at Jalan Jaksa.

Jalan Jaksa is said to be a must-visit tourist destination in Jakarta. As for me who live in Jakarta and commute every working day not far from the location, and to some, Jalan Jaksa is really an exclusive are of the blonde base camp, It is for backpackers as a starting point to go anywhere around and outside Jakarta. Jalan Jaksa (abbreviated as Jl. Jaksa) is a short street approximately 400 meters long in Central Jakarta Indonesia. It is located about south of the national museum, Monas and due west of the Gondangdia main line train station. It is around 200 meters from my workplace in Thamrin area and I myself hardly ever pass it by. (Maybe once in a life time or -- now I remember -- when I tried to get a short cut to the train station)

The origin of the street name dates back to the Dutch era, when students of the Rechts Hogeschool Batavia (Jakarta Law Academy) stayed in the area while studying. This claim needs references to reliable sources from March 2007. Because of this the street officially became known as Jaksa, the Indonesian word for Prosecutor (Wikipedia) There are many hostels available here. In 1993, the Jakarta Tourism Office stated 57,201 foreign tourists had visited hotels and hostels in the street and the surrounding area, including 29,676 Europeans, 9,309 Australians, 4,215 Americans and 649 Africans.The average length of stay of foreign tourists at Jalan Jaksa was three days.

Unfortunately, it is not recommended that you come here in extreme rainy season, which is believed periodically happens once in five years. The area is affected by the floods and you cannot get out of there without folding your trousers or skirts. See the video of the terrible flood here which forced me to fold my trousers, wading across the flood to train station and seeing Jalan Jaksa was flooded too (I have the video of that part but I haven't uploaded it on YouTube)

Jakarta downtown flood 22 December 2012

Jakarta flood! Jakarta terrible flood! Dramatic picture in video! 

Another video of Jakarta flood, and still with the same story: It's not a new story. But to me what happened on 22 December 2012 around my workplace downtown was such a view. That's the first time in my life I saw what Jakarta downtown is like in terrible flood. However, this video clip taken with my blackberry on 22 December 2012 was less dramatic than what happened the next year. 17th of January, 2013, was the worst flood we have ever had at the beginning of the year. The entire jakarta was hit by the floods, forcing me to get back home as there's no more access for the train to take me to work. The tracks were badly inundated, including the thoroughfares along Sudirman Thamrin, the heart of the city: Hotel Indonesia traffic circle and Presidential Palace.

Jakarta terrible flood 22 December 2012 might not as terrible as what happened in 2007 to those experiencing it themselves. What we hope now a total recovery. We just don't want next there will be a series of another terrible flood happening in Jakarta. Pray for Jakarta
