    Fell free to charge $1.000.0000 per trip, then people can use slow train, bus, rent a car, plane, etc. The OP already give Taiwan as example where people prefer cheaper transportation mode. In the end it's just about faster train not life and death medicine or something......

    Indonesia proposes broader use of renminbi in ASEAN

    Apparently not....... Indonesia become a net oil importer since 2003. At the time of the 98 Asian crisis, oil price was around $20-$30. So, by the time of oil price start increasing (2004-2005), Indonesia has already become a net oil importer and survive the financial crisis aftermath.

    China has the world best marriage law: Feminists cry foul

    I don't criticize China law, I also think it's fair, compare to most Western nation. Some nation don't even allow paternity test..... But the other poster brings it to far by saying woman should work if they want something and not asking their husband.

    Malaysia Malay anti China riot

    Depend on the era, previously Malay Chinese have much better freedom overall compare to Indo Chinese. Also there's more than one way to skin the cat, sometime you don't need 'in your face' rules, a neutral rule or a threat of violence that applied selectively can have the same effect. But in the...

    Malaysia Malay anti China riot

    There's still racism in Indonesia, but it's much less than before and not blatantly institutionalized anymore. The focus is more about religion now...... Imo part of the racism can be traced directly to Soeharto, using some Chinese as a front for his 'operation' so they can be scapegoats and...

    Malaysia Malay anti China riot

    It has been 10 years since my last visit to China. I don't know about now, but at that time there's no point of hiding my nationality, explaining where Indonesia is (below Malaysia, above Australia) or Bali and Medan is part of Indonesia is a good icebreaker topic :p:

    Obviously i do know about IBRA....... Your link still doesn't explain what i read from other articles, but this is getting too long. IMO if we judge anything only by black and white, just like the last cicak vs buaya episode show to us, chance is the majority of Indonesian going to be black...

    Indonesian Companies Invest Abroad

    1. Yet the government accept it, and clear it. And don't forget to compare it to that era standard procedure of disputing the BLBI bill and somehow win, or choose 1-2 years jail or even run away. 2. So? I don't get what you are trying to say with this point. 3. Can you give me more real info...

    Indonesian Companies Invest Abroad

    That's two different matter. It's well known that some of the receiver of the bail out choose to dispute it or simply run away instead trying to pay. But putting the failure of the whole program on the one group that at least does try to pay is really stretching it. Yes, BCA should be in the...

    Indonesian Companies Invest Abroad

    The effect of monetary crisis and Soeharto fall goes hand in hand. One of the main reason BCA rushed because people also doubt Soeharto can stay. Not discounting Indonesian government effort, but at the same time the Salim group does try to pay and sell most of their holdings (better attitude...
