Sunshine, On A Lazy Jakarta Saturday…But After Next Week?

Paper-backs purchased, a brief outing to SuperIndo to buy some beef for a rendang feast tonight, and we’ll see what delights the TV may have to offer.

A fine week drawing to a close, which began with a brilliant Sunday brunch, continued through two excellent parties…
……..

…AND there’s another next week, before the gloomy month of Ramadhan descends, restos and even humble street-eateries shrouded with silly curtains…
Big Mackistan? Ramadhan Lock-Out at McD Sarinah?
IslamoNazi Thugs Amok, Jakarta Cops Say ‘No Charges!’
Bigot Goon-Squad Bullies Vendor – Decent Indonesians Open Hearts AND Wallets!
…to ensure no fanatical fasters risk challenge to their spiritual discipline at the sight of non-fasters enjoying a simple meal.

‘If we fasting Muslims want respect, let us also respect those who aren’t fasting.’

One misses the wisdom of the late President Gus Dur, who was a notable Muslim scholar, so different from so many of the intolerant Islamist self-styled ‘scholars’ these days.
Islamist ‘Scholars’ – “Don’t Complain if You’re Attacked!”
Hence one must make the most of it, so today and tomorrow my plan is to relax, conserving energy for fun outings before May expires…

You say it very well, Ross, how mean they are with stupid rules when the only rule should be rule we make for ourselves.
This is because fasting is CHOOSE not to eat, not order by scholar who think he knows God better then we do,
Same like stupid curtain.to make us not see eating. If we CHOOSE not to eat then we do not need stupid curtain to make us keep our promise to us.
Stupid curtain.and stupid scholar and stupid politician like so many in Aceh who will pretend to be holy but still corrupt and steal money from poor people.
I will fast because I can and I will and not because they make me.
You and everyone can fast or not, Indonesia is NOT Iran or Arab Saudi.
