More Jakarta

 It's been a while but I'll try to quickly summarize the last two days.  Yesterday was a busy day, we were out from 8 am to 11 pm.  We started visiting a "wet market" at Bogor which was an interesting experience. It was connected to a BTPN bank branch which we learned about the day before.  They put a lot of focus on micro financing similar to the Grameen Bank so we got to visit one of their clients in the market.
Later we visited a big chicken and beef packager and the Jakarta International School (which was unreal).  Afterward we went to one of the teachers house which he shares with 4 other guys, essentially a frat house, for a dinner and a pool party.

Today we talked to the director of marketing for Sony-Ericsson's mobile division in Indonesia and India and visited @america.  @america is a place for Indonesians to learn more about America in order to improve their opinion and understanding of America.


We're having a blast so far and it's getting more fun as we get closer.  I'm looking forward to the days to come.
