Kalau nak shopping selesa di Jakarta, antara malls yang OK ialah Pasaraya Blok M di Jakarta Selatan.You go to Tanah Abang, Cempaka Mas, ITC ke Ambassador ke to buy cheap souvenirs and kain telekong yang cantik2 (chances are apa yang dijual di tempat2 ini akan dijual 3X mahal di mall2 mcm Blok M)
But I like Blok M sebab quality barangannya ( a bit like Sarinah but Sarinah tu bangunannya burok..dalamnya je cantik).
I've got practically what I wanted (lots of buku2 penulis Indonesia and SEAsian writers) and I'm ready to go home.
Tadi ada suicide bombing (kat tempat kita org pi semalam.Allah telah lindungi kami).Malam tadi got earthquake in some parts of Indonesia.Haiyo...very active energy kat sini.
The closing of our event was so-so.Tahun ni everyone looked tired and rushed.I pun tak larat sebab kena cirit birit since last nite (jgn makan salad tempat orang.Eat cooked meals).
See you guys in KL.I kena pi mengadap JPJ sebab langgar traffic light kat UIA tu.Siap suruh bawak geran kereta.Sigh.Malaysia negara ku...

Salam Dr F,
Those books that you have bought, are they written in English? By Indonesian writers ada ka? bole i buat research later, who knows :-))
Hidayah: they are translations.Org Indonesians are very proud of their language/s and cultures..mana dia nak tulis in English.Many books written in English abt Indonesian lit are done by scholars in the US/Australia/Europe.Ramai pengkaji Barat and some set up their research offices in Jakarta.I met one from Holland and another from France.Dua-dua based in Jakarta.Sepai leman, tak tau la pulak. :))
