I like Jalan Jaksa coz of the cheap beer and food. Other than that, it's just an ordinary street with hookers in every corner.


just to dig it up a bit...

i dont see how any "ordinary street" can have hookers in every corner.

It's depressing to see that people have to resort to that kinda work

Ashamed to be seen at jaksa

Back on topic... an acquaintance took me to Jaksa one night. To a place called Pappa. Quite ordinary. No female staff. Several bule, who seemed either too poor, too ugly or too drunk to say or do anything worthwhile. Probably mostly English teachers. Most girls there quite noisy and unattractive. Beer cheap and flat. I won't be going back there. Can't see the attraction... unless there's a place there where I might find any women up for a threesome? Can any of you sad "Jaksa regulars" tell me if there's such a place?
Thanks.

pappas is the worst excuse for a pub/restaurant on jaksa, if you exclude the african speak-easy next door. so hardly surprising you were less than impressed.

Kenny , I really think that you are looking in the wrong place , as asked elsewhere , do you need 3 or 4 inclusive ? possibly a 3 hole doll will be suitable .

Jaksa is the best place to eat and drink in Jakarta. There is a variety of places all at a good price. Why pay more for the same just because it is trendy to do so? Yes Indos seem to act like sheep and follow the crowd and if they say jaksa is out then so be it they won't go there. Noone is game to say hey that is not such a bad place if their friends suggest otherwise.

not really my tipple of choice these days. in fact the older i get the more a pipe n slippers type of gent i become

however in my bkk era i did spend a few good, and bad, years in a similar area. soi ngam dulpee was a run down, sleazy shit pit that attracted skanky slags, the perennially pissed and stingy storytellers

i kept leaving but kept being drawn back to the place...there was a charm about the place and (some of) the people and it had that small kampung type feel where every one knew everyone else and their secrets.

moved on now but a couple of mates didn t

rip

unfortunately, jaksa's time as a run-down, sleazy shit pit are numbered! development is coming, and it's coming fast! in a year or two's time, i don't think any of us will come here for "entertainment" purposes. it'll be wall-to-wall modern commercial establishments.

it will be. it will be.

seems the idea is to pressue the "kawasan wisata malam" to jalan sabang and jalan wahid hasyim. jalan jaksa will be widened (on the eastern side) to become a through road, esp. when the new carrefour is built.

but then, we all know the french are bastards.

I have an indonesian girlfriend (normal friends as hang out together, nothing more) She only knew about jalan jaksa from television. I invited her to come over and have a drink together in one of the bars. She didnt really want to, but after some persuation she agreed to take a look. She barely dared to strawl the road (covering her face), but by no means she wanted to eat something in one of the restaurants. (I just could get her to eat something at the kaki lima) It seemed to me she was ashamed to be there???

She told me later jaksa has a very bad name amongst 'decent' jakartans and her family would not accept if she would be seen there.

Does jaksa really have such a bad name?? I find it the most pleasant and safe street in jakarta, why all this fuzz?? Do you have similar experiences?


I can Understand how is ur GF feels... some people in indonesia still thinking that girls who hangout with western is not a good girl ... sometime they talked dirty to that girl and treath her like a whore .. in fact not every girls who hangs out with the western is whore .. could be friends and or wife like i do
I been visit jalan jaksa several times ... with some friends also with my hubby .. but i dont feel that they ( western or local people there) is thingking negatively about me .. honestly i feel like i bali where no one care what you are ..

I think your GF maybe scare that people in jalan jaksa will be thinking negatively about her.
