Flooding days in Jakarta. Bad. TV was saying as high as 2 metres. Areas like Bogor, Bundung worst. This is the most seriuos diaster i have seen since i came here 2 1/2 years ago.

The man walking was sitting on the boat a momnt ago. This is actually the entrance to a University, just opposite my condominium. Apparently he asked the men (i would assume is the security guides to row him out of the school, who else would have access to a boat?). Wonder how much he paid them.

Just did a stock check on food supply:

• a newly bought 5-kg rice
• 3/4 full AQUA water (in case anyone ask, we dare not boil the tap water here so those who can afford always drink AQUA, per gallon Rp 9500)
• 1 kg of raw fatty pork meat (asked Chen to help me buy from market last saturday)
• 3 canned foods (sardine, pork, zha chai)
• 1/2 pkt mushroom, ikan bilis, 2 pears...etc.

Guess can last for few days. Will go check see whether got vegetables at HERO tomorrow or not, seem like no rain tonight.

No rain=no flood=car can move=got fresh vegetables
