Jakarta adalah sebuah kota metropolitan yang sangat modern,
gedung bertingkat dan apartemen, mall

Jakarta is a metropolitan city that is very modern,
storeyed buildings and apartments, shopping mall

namun tur ini adalah tur yang akan pergi dibalik gedung dan keramaian modernisasi, sebuah
tur yang akan mengunjungi kebanyakan orang Jakarta yang hidup dalam situasi dan kondisi yang memprihatinkan, dan tur ini akan bertemu keluarga-keluarga yang hidup dengan sangat berani, kuat, dan kreatip dalam kondisi yang sangat terbatas

but this tour is a tour that will go behind the building and modernization crowd,
a tour that will visit Jakarta most people who live in situations and conditions that disadvantage concern, and this tour will meet families who live in a very brave, strong, and creative in a very limited possibilities and opportunity

Dear Ron and Parlin,

I am just come back home from Indonesia and I am very very happy .My journey was fantastic. Something inbelievable. Thanks a lot for your all you gave me in Jakarta. (the visit the exposition and discussion).

At Yogyakarta, near the Bird Market I met in Water Castel Cafe a fotographer Kompi Setyoko, who presented me the young artist Sasongko (painter and fashion). With him I visited Borobodur and Prambanam and landscape around during two days. It was fantastic. We shared about diffirent things.

Bromo and Ijen was great .

After that I visited Bali, rice field and some beaches and i passed one week in Lombok in Gilis Islands. So nice, quite and wonderful.

People are always open minded, easely going...It was one of my best trip.
I have had no problem in anyway...

All time , people are smiling and whant to speak with you. And I was surprised by the muslims. In Canada is difficult to share with them but not in your contry and particulary with the women.

Thanks also for placing two pics of me in your site. I'll prepare my fotos and send you. You 'll take all you wants for your site and for people. I just need a time to put all on my computer. I can make also a copy on a CD and post you by mail.

Along the trip I spoke about you at differents peoples. Indonesia is far away but I'll try to make best know it in my contry.

Best regards,

Jean-Guy

JALAN - JALAN JAKARTA

Pernahkah anda menyaksikan bagaimana warga miskin kota di metropolitan Jakarta melihat diri mereka sendiri dan kampungnya?. Oasis kali ini mengajak anda untuk menyaksikan "sisi lain" dari wajah Jakarta, yaitu sebuah wajah yang tenggelam dan tersuruk ke belakang oleh modernitas dan globalisasi yang membuat perkembangan wajah Jakarta, ibukota Indonesia, mirip kota-kota besar lainnya di Barat."Wajah Jakarta yang tersembunyi" ini terlihat dari potret kampung kumuh dan berpenghuni padat, yang terletak di wilayah Galur, Kramat, dan Kampung Rawa, ketiganya terletak di Jakarta Pusat. Bagaimanakah warga miskin kota bertahan hidup di kawasan ini?. Bagaimana mereka mengatasi masalahnya?. Bakti, warga Galur, dan Ronny, warga Jakarta lainnya yang berlatar belakang seorang fotografer, menyajikan "Wajah Jakarta yang Tersembunyi" itu dengan membuat semacam "tur" buat siapa saja yang ingin menyaksikan kehidupan kampung kumuh dan berpenghuni padat itu dari dekat. Jarang orang yang tahu, bahwa diperkirakan 65 persen warga Jakarta tinggal di kawasan semacam itu dan kehadiran mereka seolah "terhalang" dari pandangan mata seiring menjamurnya gedung-gedung tinggi dan modern di Jakarta.
