More Countries Added to Visa Waiver List & Exciting Events This Week

Hi Jakartans,

Another significant breakthrough from President Jokowi’s administration following last week’s announcement of KITAS waiver for foreign workers, the Minister of Maritime coordination Rizal Ramli recently announced 47 more countries added to the list of countries that require no visa to enter Indonesia, which includes Australia, Vatican and San Marino. Last June the government had already announced 45 countries getting the waiver, including ASEAN countries.

This week the fans of 80s and 90s music will cheer as the legendary Bon Jovi will rock Jakarta on 11th September 2015 at Gelora Bung Karno Jakarta. This concert will be the ‘Living on a Prayer’ hit maker’s second concert in Jakarta after their first concert almost exactly 20 years ago in 1995, in Ancol, Jakarta. It is expected that 40,000 people of all ages will flock in to the massive Gelora Bung Karno stadium.
