Beautiful Indonesia

Hunting activity in Indonesia can become a very good content if you some how decided to make some money from Youtube channel. Just my suggestion here. Although tropical jungle that we have will cause some sort of difficult visibility to the viewer.

I never do hunting but my uncle often do that when he was still living in West Sumatra. Hunting wild boar for fun but he doesnt have any gun as far as I remember. Local people appreciates the activity since wild boar is considered as pest in many part of Indonesia. I dont know whether the people there use rifle but they certainly use a lot of dogs to hunt and kill the boar.

Some of my friends in their Facebook some time show off their shooting activity in PERBAKIN. Even one of them showing shooting with shotgun, something like Remington type, in a firing range. I dont know whether this type of gun is ever allowed to be possessed by civilian since he is an entrepreneur, not a public officer. One of my best friends though who work in BPK (Gov Auditor) also like to show off his pistol in FB and even visited my home to just show off his pistol to me :lol: I think that is the day he got permission to carry a gun :disagree:

My personal experience with gun is only with air gun (senapan angin) and this was my activity during my childhood. I dont recommend this activity for Today teenager since I have to admit that we were shooting birds at that time and even some time some one else chicken. I always missed my shoot though except when I killed a chicken (some thing that I regret after seeing the chicken died) and I stop doing the activity after seeing my cousin who successfully shot a bird, some how my moral value increases after seeing that poor bird. :agree: I am glad government now also has banned this type of gun.

To join perbakin there is lot of procedure, and with my face there is more hussle to do that (i am kinda like foreigner to begin with until i am speaking Javanese). Meanwhile my father is had become Japanese citizen and had secure the license since long.

Indonesia is blessed with so many mountains it has. The mountain region provide fertile land and source of water since many rivers are originated from this region. Often mountains region in Indonesia becomes a conservation of protected wild animals. One of the example is a protected forest in Mount (gunung) Sawal in West Java province which has 5.600 hectare tropical forest where protected wild animals like leopard, Java kukang, and Java Eagle live. The location is also a good place of hiking and camping and has enormous natural water supply.

Well, my friend is also a member of PERBAKIN. And he's a Chinese descent like me. But he doesn't hunt in the jungle. He just join IPSC games, and active in IPSC championship around my town. While me... ehem, just playing with AA IPSC and always got bullied by him when playing together :(

Typical West Java tropical jungle is like ujung kulon National park, they are very dangerous for newbie tracker, you need professional guides

West Java have so many tourist destination and for foreign tourist I believe they will be interested with the nature there and since West Java is also so close with Jakarta so they can just rent car and visit Bandung after experiencing Jakarta for 3-4 days.

Bandung which is actually a big city in West Java still has some green areas in South and West side of the city.

Some of the green areas and tourist spot is in South Bandung, Ciwidey. It has beautiful big lake, small vulcanic lake, deer farming, paddy field, and others.

This video about Baluran Geopark, East Java, is very well made. The video is made during rainy season, in the dry season the landscape is more like African nature. The location is near Bali though, so it will be easy for some one visiting Bali to take a look on this beautiful geopark.

This is not talking about tourist destination but just village live in Indonesia. You can see how beautiful our village life is and this video talk about the story of successful woman who run a sheep farm in Central Java.

Nice, is that you who took the picture ? Look like you are a hard core mountain hiking :-)
Yes I did a lot of mountain hikes when I was younger. Bali was one of my most memorizing trip. Gunong Batur was actually an easy climb. From our starting point near the hot spring to the summit is only 2hrs for fit guy. Me and my partner took 3 hours. Our guide was an old lady wearing slippers.:cheesy:
Best thing was the dip in the hot spring after climb down.

Gunong Batur is an active baby volcano inside a large caldera. Here is how it looks from the top.

This is how it looks from the ground from inside the caldera. Yes, there is a lake inside the caldera.

That guide old lady should be worry that the slippers will be broken and she can destroy the trip if that happen :pissed: Any way you should visit Labuan Bajo if you have time and you can bring your big family and rent a ship there.

This Vlog is great with high quality camera and it is Indonesian vlog and I think as Malaysian you will understand the language. You can fly directly from Jakarta to go to Labuan Bajo. But I think with this outbreak we need to wait for at least 2-3 years to do the journey safely.

Jakarta people have two favorite places when we had long vacation which is Puncak (HighLand near Jakarta) and thousand islands (chain of many small islands). There are many islands that have become a resort but I will recommend Bidadari island as I have been there. Very good and beautiful places and the food is also awesome. There are swimming pool, volley ball, and other. You can fishing as well there. Here is another recommendation which is Ayer Island which I see quite similar like Bidadari Island.

Ayer Island.


Puncak is outside Jakarta although quite near and thousand islands are still part of Jakarta region.
