    Great video, agree with all of these. Also something most people don't know is that you can open a local bank account on a b211a visa. You just need a recommendation letter from your visa agent, and they connect you with a local bank who can set it all up. Means you can get the best rates and no transactions fees anywhere in Indonesia by transferring from transferwise to indo bank account.

      2. Membawa Paspor asli yang masih berlaku

      4. Membawa uang untuk setoran awal sebesar Rp.500.000
      Who did you open an account with? Mainstream banks will even require KITAS holders to present their new KITAS every year. Permata are particularly strict requiring head office approval...Mandiri you may get away with, but you deserve all you get if you open and account with Mandiri.
      Do remember just because it can happen doesn't mean it is in accordance with the law - this is Indonesia, an account that has been opened can just as quickly be shut. It has happened more than a few times to WNA account holders - you'll find a couple of cases on the indonesia forums.

    Green hair from chlorine, easy fix ,tomato ketchup, this is true especially if your fair haired, and your hair is long , the longer your hair is ,the more tomato ketchup you'll need to use , example shoulder length best use the whole bottle once your hair is completely covered ,just wrap a towel over your GREEN hair for a couple of hours and hey presto ,wash it off and it gets rid of 90% , if your a bit consous, repeat as nessasary ,just make sure someone doesn't use your hair to dip their chips, but it does really work,,,
