In This Issue:Ramadan is the holy month of fasting for Muslims around the world . When is Ramadan in 2016 ??
Ramadan is a special time for Muslims across the world. Falling in the tenth month of Shawwal, the
Islamic calendar, it was at this time of the year when the Angel Gibril revealed to the Prophet Mo-
hammed Allah’s will and so were written the very first verses of the Holy Qur'an. The month of Ram-
adan is spent fasting from dawn to dusk everyday - it is a time to introspect, reflect and reinforce the
bond between the Almighty and the faithful. This year Ramadhan will begin on or around June 06,
2016. When the period of restraint ends in an extravagant explosion of festivities and feasting. The
devout gather together to offer Eid prayers and greet each other in a rejuvenated spirit of camarade-
rie. Eid is a day of thankfulness, of peace, of remembrance, of charity and of forgiveness, celebrated
amidst great jubilation once the delicate silver sliver of the crescent moon has been sighted. How will
Ramadhan affect expatriates?
 Your household staff will most probably want to take one to two weeks off to visit their family in the
village and you'll be left to cope without a cook, driver, watchman and helpers. Consequently, restau-
rants do a brisk trade during this period as families eat out more often than usual.
 It's difficult to schedule travel in Indonesia near the end of Ramadhan due to the annual exodus of 7+
million city dwellers to their hometowns.
 Street food vendors and some restaurants close during the day and some restaurants stop serving
alcohol. The government orders the closing of night entertainment centers during the first day and the
last day of Ramadhan. Some establishments that are in 5 star hotels or better known clubs will be
allowed to operate; however will have shortened hours throughout the month.

Ramadan for non-Muslims: An etiquette guide
It's Ramadan, the holiest month of the Muslim calendar. But what if you're not a Muslim; just a caring, con-
siderate person. Is there anything you should be doing so you don't come across as insensitive to your fast-
ing friends? Short Answer is NO, Long answer: No. But you can earn some cool points if you follow these 10
tips:
1. You can totally eat in front of Them...
For the next 30 days, Muslims around the world will abstain from eating and drinking during daylight hours.
That doesn't mean you shouldn't carry on business as usual. (Just turn a deaf ear to our growling stomach)
2. Try not to schedule a work lunch
If you have to have a brownbag, you should. But don't feel bad if they sit there, like a vegetarian friend. If
your Muslim co-worker takes a pass, understand.
3. You don't have to fast with them too
You can if you want to see what it feels like. But it's not going to hurt their feelings -- even if you’re best
friends.
4. You can join for Iftar
Iftar is the breaking of the fast after sundown. We like to make it a big communal meal. You should come.
5. You don't have to know when it begins
Ramadan isn't like Christmas or Thanksgiving, as in you know exactly when it'll fall. It bounces around, be-
cause the Islamic calendar is lunar. When it begins depends on when the new moon is seen. That's why the
precise dates change from year to year.
6. Be a little flexible
How they determine when Ramadan begins is decidedly old-school -- you have to physically see the moon
(even though there are apps for that). That's why, if your co-worker says, "Starting tomorrow, can I start work
early so I can leave sooner?" try to accommodate.
7. They'll still go for coffee with you
No, they can't drink. Not even water. But they'll walk with you if you want to take a break.
8. They may keep our distance
One word: Halitosis. You try not eating or drinking the entire day. That's why they're standing a foot away
from you when they talk.
9. You can say "Ramadan Mubarak"
There's no "war on Christmas"-level controversy surrounding the greeting. (It means "Happy Ramadan").
Your Muslim co-worker will appreciate the thoughtfulness.
10.Please don't say "I should fast too. I need to lose weight"
Ramadan's not about that. Plus, one of Ramadan's side effects is obesity. (It's all that post-sundown over-
eating.)

Immigration Targets Expats Again
“Carry the original documents with you”
On the Sunday morning of June 5, the South
Jakarta Immigration Office held another raid
on the popular entertainment street of Blok
M. A total of 19 expats were arrested and tak-
en to the Immigration office at Jl. Mampang/
Buncit in South Jakarta. Among them were a
few that possessed a copy of their KITAP and
a KTP. So, what did these expats actually do
wrong? Nothing, really!
They were only precautious and instead of
carrying the original KITAP, used a laminated
copy, as many expats do. Nevertheless they
were all arrested (because of not processing
an original KITAP) and forced to complete a joyful evening in a depressing room at the Immigration Office –
together with 18 others! As it was in the middle of the night and many were more or less in some state of
lesser awareness, many fell asleep on the floor. An experience any expat will not forget easily.
The expats were asked to arrange someone to bring in their original KITAP. They did so the same morning
after which they were allowed to go, but only under the strict notice that they had to present their passports
the next (Monday) morning. As law abiding citizens, they did, but the ordeal was not over yet. They were in-
terrogated and sent home to come back on Tuesday again. They were ordered to sign a police investigation
report (BAP) and to come back again to discuss the fine.
The intriguing question pops up: Why did Immigration arrest them in the first place? Were they allowed to do
so?
Article 71 of the Immigration law no. 6 of 2011 is the basis on which the Immigration officers will justify their
actions, in this case under section b).
Article 71
Each Foreigner residing in the Territory of Indonesia is required to:
a). (…) or
b). show (produce) and submit (hand over) his travel document (Passport) and Stay Permit (Kitas/Kitap) if
requested by immigration officers on duty in order to supervise Immigration control.
This is very clear:
 One is obliged to show his passport and KITAS/KITAP when asked by an Immigration Officer. If
you fail to do so article 116 is the next legislation that will be handled.
Article 116
Each Foreigner who is noncompliant with (does not perform their obligations as stipulated in) Article 71 will
be convicted (or shall be punished) with a maximum confinement of 3 (three) months or a fine of up to
Rp.25,000,000 (twenty five million rupiah). Also very clear:
 If you cannot show your passport or KITAS/KITAP you will be convicted. Maximum 3 months jail
or maximum Rp.25,000,000.
In the interpretation of these Immigration officers, not carrying your original passport and KITAS/KITAP is
against the law and should be punished. This strict and one-sided explanation of the law isn’t necessarily
correct. Reading the law it says that the foreigner must show or produce his passport and stay permit. It is
not written when you have to produce it and hand it over. Many expats will have experienced that if you don’t
have your original documents on you, you will be asked to show it later or the next day, which is common
practice and very much acceptable. Many expats carry copies to prevent loss of the original and going
through all the hassle and dazzle again to obtain those documents. Is this wrong? Yes and no, since the law
doesn’t stipulate that you must carry originals with you.

Immigration Targets Expats Again: What to Do??
Now, here we stand. We will advise few options and each of expat will decide what will they do to resolve
this problem.
 Hire a Lawyer. Go to the lawyer with knowledge of Immigration – don’t go to a criminal lawyer as
you didn’t commit a crime! First internally with the Ministry of Justice, the Department of Immigration, and
if there is no success, further to an administrative court. One winner for sure, the lawyer handling the
case, as his fees will surely raise to the heights of the maximum amount of 25 million.
 Do it by yourself! Be Smart and stay calm. Handle it all yourself and stick to your point, mainly
based on what is written above, regarding the use of a copy. Show and handover (which is producing!)
the passport and KITAS/KITAP and await the fine which will be imposed on you. If you don’t get angry,
no jail time will be discussed, just a fine. You can try to reach an amicable settlement and probably pay
less than the 25 million. Don’t consider to call this a bribe or extortion or seeking Lebaran money. No, the
officer can give you a fine up to 25 million. If you ask him for all kinds of reports and proof of payment,
the amount likely will be higher.
 The easiest way and yet smart, go to the formalities agent. An agent will immediately go for an ami-
cable settlement. An agent most likely will try to grease the wheels of the system and see where more oil
is needed. He may try to limit the irritation and inconvenience inflicted on you. Most agents have experi-
ence with these kinds of Immigration actions. Raids in bars and other entertainment places are not sel-
dom practiced. Of course, the agent will ask a fee, but as a guide we mention that Rp.5 million for the
agent is a fair price for cases like this. Just to give you an idea.
As some Immigration Offices are getting stricter on expats, we would suggest that you keep your original
KITAS/KITAP with you to prevent issues. You can show your passport the next day. However, if you want to
be sure to never face a situation like this one, take the passport with you as well.

EXPLORING JAKARTA
JALAN SURABAYATREASURES AND TRINKETS
Now Jakarta Article, Written By, Gail G.Collins
When poking into stalls on Jalan Surabaya, an old saying comes to mind: One person’s trash is another person’s
treasure. Regardless of how you feel about Chinese porcelain or Led Zeppelin vinyl, the antique market, or Pasar
Antik, is a shady, half-kilometre browse in Menteng. As the previous seat of government, the area boasts upscale,
tree-lined, residential streets. The traditional market was born in the mid-70s through entrepreneurial spirit and a
good idea. It grew from a weekend event to daily standard shopping hours. Officially opened by Ali Sadikin, the
then-governor of Jakarta, the antique shops took the place of Kota Tua’s travelling traders. Many of the stalls are
run by the next generation of owners.
The variety of goods is endless, but here is a short list: wayang or puppets, brassware, ceramics, textiles, wood-
en carvings, statues, books, period cameras, chandeliers and all things glass, gamelan gongs and other instru-
ments, phonographs and records as well as telephones from every era. Stalls are organized by theme. Men polish
timeworn items on the curb and many new items are likely made to look old. There are original finds and, of
course, fakes, but it is about “the love of stuff.” There is no certificate of authenticity, so if your taste runs to seri-
ous collector’s items, shop with a local expert to determine vintage and worth.
Come with cash and a sense of adventure. Traders are friendly and happy to give the hawker’s tour of their
wares. It is suggested to walk the street of shops, make a mental note your interests, and then, compare
costs. Bargain for the best price, usually a bit more than half of the asking price, and embrace your treasured
purchase. You are in good company, as Mick Jagger, Sharon Stone, and former president of the United
States, Bill Clinton, have reportedly shopped on Jalan Surabaya. Parking and tasty restaurant choices are
available across from the market and nearby. If you have a curious eye for past gems and can see the de-
light in them today, Jalan Surabaya is an enjoyable day out in Jakarta.

Malaria
Awareness
“In 2015, there were 214 million cases of malaria and 438,000 deaths.”
World Health Organization, 2016*
What is malaria?
Malaria is a serious disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite. It is a medical emergency, treatable, and largely preventable.
How it spreads
Malaria is spread to humans via the bite of an infected mosquito. The parasite develops in the Anopheles mosquito, which
typically bites at night (from dusk until dawn).
Symptoms
Symptoms can develop about 7 days after of being bitten. Alternatively, it could take up to several months to a year for
symptoms to first appear. This is why it is important to notify your doctor of your travel history whenever you develop 'flu-
like' symptoms, even up to a year after visiting a malarial area.
Early malaria symptoms are flu-like, such as fever, shaking chills (‘rigors’), head and body aches, generally feeling tired and
unwell. Symptoms can be episodic (come and go), and can progress to include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and yellowing of
the eyes and skin (‘jaundice’). If not promptly treated, malaria can cause mental confusion, seizures, multiple organ failure,
coma and death.
Who is at risk?
Anyone can get infected with malaria. Young children, pregnant women, people with weakened immunity and travelers
from malaria-free regions are more likely to suffer severe illness than others.
Prevention
Learn the ‘ABCD’ of malaria prevention (see below). The use of protective clothing, insect repellents and bed nets can greatly
reduce the risk of being bitten. Take antimalarial medication if prescribed for you. At a community level, spraying insecticide
indoors and eliminating mosquito breeding areas also help reduce the risk of infection.
Treatment
Malaria is curable if treated promptly with appropriate antimalarial medications. Treatment should be started as soon as pos-
sible. Severe or potentially severe cases require hospitalisation.

The ‘ABCD’ of malaria prevention
Be Aware of the risk and the symptoms.
Avoid being Bitten by mosquitoes, especially between dusk and dawn. If
prescribed for you, use Chemoprophylaxis (antimalarial medication) to
prevent infection.
Immediately seek Diagnosis and treatment if a fever develops one
week or more after being in a malarial area.
(up to one year after departure)

The ISIS claimed/sponsored attacks in the Lebanon, Paris, Jakarta and Brussels, indicate the group are shifting focus from
attacks within their recognized area of operations - Syria and Iraq - to external attacks in overseas cities. In light of the com-
paratively easy access to; weapons, components to make explosives, willing personnel and tactical simplicity, the possibility of
repeat attacks of this nature in other cities must be a reality.
The most recent of these attacks - the Brussels attack, again highlighted the terrorist’s preference to identify and attack Soft
Targets – i.e. those which attract a significant number of potential victims who can be attacked without the need to smuggle
weapons and explosives beyond security screening. These types of target are plentiful in Jakarta, some are; mall & hotel
receptions / lobby for drop off and pick up, concerts, large events and particularly the 'soft side' of airports, ports and train sta-
tions - the area before body and baggage screening/searching.
Such attacks could happen anywhere there are active terrorist groupings and therefore, we should assume that similar attacks
could happen in Indonesia.
What can we do to protect these Soft Targets?
Whilst difficult to defend against, we may all be able to assist in the protection of these targets by reducing their value as a target.
To achieve this we need to change our behavior and in doing so we may also reduce our risk of becoming a victim. Suggested
changes to behavior may include:
1. Minimizing time spent in soft target areas, such as; malls & hotel reception areas, vehicle drop off and pick up points, con-
certs, large events and the 'public side' of airports, ports and train stations i.e. check-in areas before being screened.
2. Plan your journeys to minimize time spent waiting - brief your driver on your aim to minimize time spent waiting in these areas
and establish good communications with him. Consider funding a smart mobile phone for your driver so you can also track his
position and therefore better plan your movement to avoid the target areas.
3. If you approach these soft target areas and find them congested with traffic and crowds (which will attract increased target
value) - consider the following action;
 If in a vehicle - drive around the block to let the traffic and crowd disperse. If traffic does not allow this action,
consider getting out and walking to a different entry point.
If on foot - avoid the crowds and move to an alternative entry point or a cafe again allowing time for the crowds
to disperse.
4. When passing through security screening points cooperate and encourage the security personnel to do a thorough
job.
5. Stay informed of local events and activities by monitoring the media and / or subscribe to a security risk information
service that feeds you ‘live’ incident SMS alerts and emails to facilitate informed choice and decision making.
6. Finally, we all have a duty to report suspicious persons, movement and activity. If you See or Hear Something Sus-
picious then Do Something - Report it. Inform local Security Personnel, Police or if language presents a barrier, re-
port to the nominated point of contact for security matters in your organization.
Hill & Associates is an International risk mitigation consultancy that has been operating in Indonesia for 20 years. Services
include the provision of ‘Live’ incident SMS alerts, Security Advisory Bulletins, Security Awareness Briefings, Site & Building
Security Management Training, Security Driver Training and Security Audits to mitigate such threats and risks.

Relocation | Immigration | Moving | Real Estate | Records Management| Property Management www.SantaFeRelo.com SANTA FE Indonesia E-NEWSLETTER | VOL.2 - 2016 Health Article: International SOS: Malaria Upcoming Events: Charity events Concert In This Issue:Ramadan is the holy month of fasting for Muslims around the world . When is Ramadan in 2016 ?? Ramadan is a special time for Muslims across the world. Falling in the tenth month of Shawwal, the Islamic calendar, it was at this time of the year when the Angel Gibril revealed to the Prophet Mo- hammed Allah’s will and so were written the very first verses of the Holy Qur'an. The month of Ram- adan is spent fasting from dawn to dusk everyday - it is a time to introspect, reflect and reinforce the bond between the Almighty and the faithful. This year Ramadhan will begin on or around June 06, 2016. When the period of restraint ends in an extravagant explosion of festivities and feasting. The devout gather together to offer Eid prayers and greet each other in a rejuvenated spirit of camarade- rie. Eid is a day of thankfulness, of peace, of remembrance, of charity and of forgiveness, celebrated amidst great jubilation once the delicate silver sliver of the crescent moon has been sighted. How will Ramadhan affect expatriates?  Your household staff will most probably want to take one to two weeks off to visit their family in the village and you'll be left to cope without a cook, driver, watchman and helpers. Consequently, restau- rants do a brisk trade during this period as families eat out more often than usual.  It's difficult to schedule travel in Indonesia near the end of Ramadhan due to the annual exodus of 7+ million city dwellers to their hometowns.  Street food vendors and some restaurants close during the day and some restaurants stop serving alcohol. The government orders the closing of night entertainment centers during the first day and the last day of Ramadhan. Some establishments that are in 5 star hotels or better known clubs will be allowed to operate; however will have shortened hours throughout the month.

  • 3. Relocation | Immigration | Moving | Real Estate | Records Management| Property Management www.SantaFeRelo.com Ramadan for non-Muslims: An etiquette guide It's Ramadan, the holiest month of the Muslim calendar. But what if you're not a Muslim; just a caring, con- siderate person. Is there anything you should be doing so you don't come across as insensitive to your fast- ing friends? Short Answer is NO, Long answer: No. But you can earn some cool points if you follow these 10 tips: 1. You can totally eat in front of Them... For the next 30 days, Muslims around the world will abstain from eating and drinking during daylight hours. That doesn't mean you shouldn't carry on business as usual. (Just turn a deaf ear to our growling stomach) 2. Try not to schedule a work lunch If you have to have a brownbag, you should. But don't feel bad if they sit there, like a vegetarian friend. If your Muslim co-worker takes a pass, understand. 3. You don't have to fast with them too You can if you want to see what it feels like. But it's not going to hurt their feelings -- even if you’re best friends. 4. You can join for Iftar Iftar is the breaking of the fast after sundown. We like to make it a big communal meal. You should come. 5. You don't have to know when it begins Ramadan isn't like Christmas or Thanksgiving, as in you know exactly when it'll fall. It bounces around, be- cause the Islamic calendar is lunar. When it begins depends on when the new moon is seen. That's why the precise dates change from year to year. 6. Be a little flexible How they determine when Ramadan begins is decidedly old-school -- you have to physically see the moon (even though there are apps for that). That's why, if your co-worker says, "Starting tomorrow, can I start work early so I can leave sooner?" try to accommodate. 7. They'll still go for coffee with you No, they can't drink. Not even water. But they'll walk with you if you want to take a break. 8. They may keep our distance One word: Halitosis. You try not eating or drinking the entire day. That's why they're standing a foot away from you when they talk. 9. You can say "Ramadan Mubarak" There's no "war on Christmas"-level controversy surrounding the greeting. (It means "Happy Ramadan"). Your Muslim co-worker will appreciate the thoughtfulness. 10.Please don't say "I should fast too. I need to lose weight" Ramadan's not about that. Plus, one of Ramadan's side effects is obesity. (It's all that post-sundown over- eating.) See the complete article at http://edition.cnn.com/2016/06/04/us/ramadan-non-muslims-etiquette-guide/index.html? sr=fbcnni060616ramadan-non-muslims-etiquette-guide0521AMVODtopLink&linkId=25240946
  • 4. Relocation | Immigration | Moving | Real Estate | Records Management| Property Management www.SantaFeRelo.com Immigration Targets Expats Again “Carry the original documents with you” On the Sunday morning of June 5, the South Jakarta Immigration Office held another raid on the popular entertainment street of Blok M. A total of 19 expats were arrested and tak- en to the Immigration office at Jl. Mampang/ Buncit in South Jakarta. Among them were a few that possessed a copy of their KITAP and a KTP. So, what did these expats actually do wrong? Nothing, really! They were only precautious and instead of carrying the original KITAP, used a laminated copy, as many expats do. Nevertheless they were all arrested (because of not processing an original KITAP) and forced to complete a joyful evening in a depressing room at the Immigration Office – together with 18 others! As it was in the middle of the night and many were more or less in some state of lesser awareness, many fell asleep on the floor. An experience any expat will not forget easily. The expats were asked to arrange someone to bring in their original KITAP. They did so the same morning after which they were allowed to go, but only under the strict notice that they had to present their passports the next (Monday) morning. As law abiding citizens, they did, but the ordeal was not over yet. They were in- terrogated and sent home to come back on Tuesday again. They were ordered to sign a police investigation report (BAP) and to come back again to discuss the fine. The intriguing question pops up: Why did Immigration arrest them in the first place? Were they allowed to do so? Article 71 of the Immigration law no. 6 of 2011 is the basis on which the Immigration officers will justify their actions, in this case under section b). Article 71 Each Foreigner residing in the Territory of Indonesia is required to: a). (…) or b). show (produce) and submit (hand over) his travel document (Passport) and Stay Permit (Kitas/Kitap) if requested by immigration officers on duty in order to supervise Immigration control. This is very clear:  One is obliged to show his passport and KITAS/KITAP when asked by an Immigration Officer. If you fail to do so article 116 is the next legislation that will be handled. Article 116 Each Foreigner who is noncompliant with (does not perform their obligations as stipulated in) Article 71 will be convicted (or shall be punished) with a maximum confinement of 3 (three) months or a fine of up to Rp.25,000,000 (twenty five million rupiah). Also very clear:  If you cannot show your passport or KITAS/KITAP you will be convicted. Maximum 3 months jail or maximum Rp.25,000,000. In the interpretation of these Immigration officers, not carrying your original passport and KITAS/KITAP is against the law and should be punished. This strict and one-sided explanation of the law isn’t necessarily correct. Reading the law it says that the foreigner must show or produce his passport and stay permit. It is not written when you have to produce it and hand it over. Many expats will have experienced that if you don’t have your original documents on you, you will be asked to show it later or the next day, which is common practice and very much acceptable. Many expats carry copies to prevent loss of the original and going through all the hassle and dazzle again to obtain those documents. Is this wrong? Yes and no, since the law doesn’t stipulate that you must carry originals with you.

  • 5. Relocation | Immigration | Moving | Real Estate | Records Management| Property Management www.SantaFeRelo.com Immigration Targets Expats Again: What to Do?? Now, here we stand. We will advise few options and each of expat will decide what will they do to resolve this problem.  Hire a Lawyer. Go to the lawyer with knowledge of Immigration – don’t go to a criminal lawyer as you didn’t commit a crime! First internally with the Ministry of Justice, the Department of Immigration, and if there is no success, further to an administrative court. One winner for sure, the lawyer handling the case, as his fees will surely raise to the heights of the maximum amount of 25 million.  Do it by yourself! Be Smart and stay calm. Handle it all yourself and stick to your point, mainly based on what is written above, regarding the use of a copy. Show and handover (which is producing!) the passport and KITAS/KITAP and await the fine which will be imposed on you. If you don’t get angry, no jail time will be discussed, just a fine. You can try to reach an amicable settlement and probably pay less than the 25 million. Don’t consider to call this a bribe or extortion or seeking Lebaran money. No, the officer can give you a fine up to 25 million. If you ask him for all kinds of reports and proof of payment, the amount likely will be higher.  The easiest way and yet smart, go to the formalities agent. An agent will immediately go for an ami- cable settlement. An agent most likely will try to grease the wheels of the system and see where more oil is needed. He may try to limit the irritation and inconvenience inflicted on you. Most agents have experi- ence with these kinds of Immigration actions. Raids in bars and other entertainment places are not sel- dom practiced. Of course, the agent will ask a fee, but as a guide we mention that Rp.5 million for the agent is a fair price for cases like this. Just to give you an idea. As some Immigration Offices are getting stricter on expats, we would suggest that you keep your original KITAS/KITAP with you to prevent issues. You can show your passport the next day. However, if you want to be sure to never face a situation like this one, take the passport with you as well.

  • 6. Relocation | Immigration | Moving | Real Estate | Records Management| Property Management www.SantaFeRelo.com EXPLORING JAKARTA JALAN SURABAYATREASURES AND TRINKETS Now Jakarta Article, Written By, Gail G.Collins When poking into stalls on Jalan Surabaya, an old saying comes to mind: One person’s trash is another person’s treasure. Regardless of how you feel about Chinese porcelain or Led Zeppelin vinyl, the antique market, or Pasar Antik, is a shady, half-kilometre browse in Menteng. As the previous seat of government, the area boasts upscale, tree-lined, residential streets. The traditional market was born in the mid-70s through entrepreneurial spirit and a good idea. It grew from a weekend event to daily standard shopping hours. Officially opened by Ali Sadikin, the then-governor of Jakarta, the antique shops took the place of Kota Tua’s travelling traders. Many of the stalls are run by the next generation of owners. The variety of goods is endless, but here is a short list: wayang or puppets, brassware, ceramics, textiles, wood- en carvings, statues, books, period cameras, chandeliers and all things glass, gamelan gongs and other instru- ments, phonographs and records as well as telephones from every era. Stalls are organized by theme. Men polish timeworn items on the curb and many new items are likely made to look old. There are original finds and, of course, fakes, but it is about “the love of stuff.” There is no certificate of authenticity, so if your taste runs to seri- ous collector’s items, shop with a local expert to determine vintage and worth. Come with cash and a sense of adventure. Traders are friendly and happy to give the hawker’s tour of their wares. It is suggested to walk the street of shops, make a mental note your interests, and then, compare costs. Bargain for the best price, usually a bit more than half of the asking price, and embrace your treasured purchase. You are in good company, as Mick Jagger, Sharon Stone, and former president of the United States, Bill Clinton, have reportedly shopped on Jalan Surabaya. Parking and tasty restaurant choices are available across from the market and nearby. If you have a curious eye for past gems and can see the de- light in them today, Jalan Surabaya is an enjoyable day out in Jakarta. The Indonesian Heritage Society Jakarta is a non-profit organization offering the opportunity to learn more about the rich cultural heritage of Indonesia.

  • 7. Relocation | Immigration | Moving | Real Estate | Records Management| Property Management www.SantaFeRelo.com Malaria Awareness “In 2015, there were 214 million cases of malaria and 438,000 deaths.” World Health Organization, 2016* What is malaria? Malaria is a serious disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite. It is a medical emergency, treatable, and largely preventable. How it spreads Malaria is spread to humans via the bite of an infected mosquito. The parasite develops in the Anopheles mosquito, which typically bites at night (from dusk until dawn). Symptoms Symptoms can develop about 7 days after of being bitten. Alternatively, it could take up to several months to a year for symptoms to first appear. This is why it is important to notify your doctor of your travel history whenever you develop 'flu- like' symptoms, even up to a year after visiting a malarial area. Early malaria symptoms are flu-like, such as fever, shaking chills (‘rigors’), head and body aches, generally feeling tired and unwell. Symptoms can be episodic (come and go), and can progress to include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and yellowing of the eyes and skin (‘jaundice’). If not promptly treated, malaria can cause mental confusion, seizures, multiple organ failure, coma and death. Who is at risk? Anyone can get infected with malaria. Young children, pregnant women, people with weakened immunity and travelers from malaria-free regions are more likely to suffer severe illness than others. Prevention Learn the ‘ABCD’ of malaria prevention (see below). The use of protective clothing, insect repellents and bed nets can greatly reduce the risk of being bitten. Take antimalarial medication if prescribed for you. At a community level, spraying insecticide indoors and eliminating mosquito breeding areas also help reduce the risk of infection. Treatment Malaria is curable if treated promptly with appropriate antimalarial medications. Treatment should be started as soon as pos- sible. Severe or potentially severe cases require hospitalisation. *Source: The Encephalitis Society, March 2014 Disclaimer: This leaflet has been developed for educational purposes only.

If prescribed for you, use Chemoprophylaxis (antimalarial medication) to prevent infection. Immediately seek Diagnosis and treatment if a fever develops one week or more after being in a malarial area. (up to one year after departure)
  • 8. Relocation | Immigration | Moving | Real Estate | Records Management| Property Management www.SantaFeRelo.com The ISIS claimed/sponsored attacks in the Lebanon, Paris, Jakarta and Brussels, indicate the group are shifting focus from attacks within their recognized area of operations - Syria and Iraq - to external attacks in overseas cities. In light of the com- paratively easy access to; weapons, components to make explosives, willing personnel and tactical simplicity, the possibility of repeat attacks of this nature in other cities must be a reality. The most recent of these attacks - the Brussels attack, again highlighted the terrorist’s preference to identify and attack Soft Targets – i.e. those which attract a significant number of potential victims who can be attacked without the need to smuggle weapons and explosives beyond security screening. These types of target are plentiful in Jakarta, some are; mall & hotel receptions / lobby for drop off and pick up, concerts, large events and particularly the 'soft side' of airports, ports and train sta- tions - the area before body and baggage screening/searching. Such attacks could happen anywhere there are active terrorist groupings and therefore, we should assume that similar attacks could happen in Indonesia. What can we do to protect these Soft Targets? Whilst difficult to defend against, we may all be able to assist in the protection of these targets by reducing their value as a target. To achieve this we need to change our behavior and in doing so we may also reduce our risk of becoming a victim. Suggested changes to behavior may include: 1. Minimizing time spent in soft target areas, such as; malls & hotel reception areas, vehicle drop off and pick up points, con- certs, large events and the 'public side' of airports, ports and train stations i.e. check-in areas before being screened. 2. Plan your journeys to minimize time spent waiting - brief your driver on your aim to minimize time spent waiting in these areas and establish good communications with him. Consider funding a smart mobile phone for your driver so you can also track his position and therefore better plan your movement to avoid the target areas. 3. If you approach these soft target areas and find them congested with traffic and crowds (which will attract increased target value) - consider the following action;  If in a vehicle - drive around the block to let the traffic and crowd disperse. If traffic does not allow this action, consider getting out and walking to a different entry point. If on foot - avoid the crowds and move to an alternative entry point or a cafe again allowing time for the crowds to disperse. 4. When passing through security screening points cooperate and encourage the security personnel to do a thorough job. 5. Stay informed of local events and activities by monitoring the media and / or subscribe to a security risk information service that feeds you ‘live’ incident SMS alerts and emails to facilitate informed choice and decision making. 6. Finally, we all have a duty to report suspicious persons, movement and activity. If you See or Hear Something Sus- picious then Do Something - Report it. Inform local Security Personnel, Police or if language presents a barrier, re- port to the nominated point of contact for security matters in your organization. Hill & Associates is an International risk mitigation consultancy that has been operating in Indonesia for 20 years. Services include the provision of ‘Live’ incident SMS alerts, Security Advisory Bulletins, Security Awareness Briefings, Site & Building Security Management Training, Security Driver Training and Security Audits to mitigate such threats and risks.
