Indonesia’s Communication and Information Technology Minister, Tifatul Sembiring, shared his analysis on Singapore and its relationship with Indonesia, through his Twitter account.
According to Tifatul, Singapore’s history is inseparably related to a figure of Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore’s first prime minister and current minister mentor. On year 1959, while Singapore’s gross national product (GNP) was US$400, Lee had a vision of the GNP to have a 60-fold increase to US$24,000 by 1990. And in 1995, Singapore’s GNP was US$20,000, nearly reaching the target.
Tifatul said that he had the opportunity to have a direct discussion with Lee twice, and at the age of nearly 90 years old, Lee is described by Tifatul as “still smart”. Tifatul asked Lee on how he built Singapore, how is Indonesia’s future competitiveness, the role of China, India, Japan and South Korea, and Lee answered his questions with excitement.
Singapore is like a mini-Indonesia, multi-ethnic with Chinese majority, and Lee said, they are being “engineered” to interact with each other. As a small nation without natural resources, they have to invite people to do business in Singapore. That’s why they must have an airline with the best service, referring to Singapore Airlines (SQ).
According to Lee as quoted by Tifatul, the society have to be disciplined, there have to be certainty on law, which is enforced strictly. No smoking by law, a ban on spitting, and death penalty for drug traffickers are just the examples. There’s no democracy in Singapore, opposition is just a complement. As what Lee said, they don’t want to take the risk of political turmoil, they have to be stable. As a result, investors are streaming in.
Tifatul asked Edward Lee, a former Singapore’s ambassador for Indonesia, on what is Singapore’s modern vision. Edward replied: “Vision Hub”. Tifatul asked what does that mean, and it was explained to him that Singapore has to become the central (hub) of businesses. We (Indonesia) might be rich in oil, gas etc, but they have to be sold via Singapore, resulting in the price to follow MOPS (Mean of Platts Singapore). We might have Bali, Lake Toba, Singkarak, Maninjau, Bunaken, Senggigi, Bromo, Sentani, but visitors will have to go through Singapore, using Singapore’s travel agents.
With main businesses on finance, banking, insurance, telecommunications and trade services, and with a population of 4.5 million people, Singapore’s foreign reserves reaches US$ 120 billion. In 2005, Singapore is Indonesia’s biggest foreign investors. They are now harvesting the result of their expansion strategy (Tifatul used the term “tebar jala” in bahasa Indonesia) to neighbouring countries.
Therefore, Tifatul concluded that we have to learn from history. A crisis will not be resolved by simple amok and flag burning. There have to be “smart moves”. He’s referring to the current crisis between Indonesia and Malaysia, pertaining to the arrests of Indonesian maritime officers by Malaysia’s police.

I ordered four (yes, it's FOUR) dishes of tim sum: my favourite chicken feet, siew mai (siomay in Indonesian), har kow (shrimp dumplings) and chicken pau, which is requested by Irza since it's his favourite.
The price is, surprisingly, reasonable. A dish of siew mai (3pcs) and har kow (3pcs) costs $2.50, chicken feet costs $2.20 and chicken pau (2pcs) costs only $1.60. My longan drink only costs $1.80 while Irza's milo dinosaur costs $2.80. His chicken rice (a set of rice, chicken and soup) costs only $3.

Will have to find the exact location of the station when we go there again. Anyone knows? :)

During the briefing, we were also brainstorming on what topics we would be discussing on the interview forum. There were three topics being discussed during the interview, and each topic was being discussed in a 30-minute duration. Fika suggested "working in Singapore" and "mailing lists for Indonesian communities in Singapore" as the two topics that we would be discussing, and for the third discussion, the topic would be "how long we would continue to stay in Singapore and whether we would be back to Indonesia later". Quite interesting topics to discuss. :)
Furthermore, Fika allowed us to take pictures prior, after and even *during* the interview session, and being narcisst photographers, Judhi, Hany and myself took our pictures during the whole event. :) :)
On a nice Sunday afternoon, we went to

Well, some of you might asked, why Irza prefers to play with the girls (especially pretty girls like Fresha or Kanaya :P :P) rather than with the boys? :) Because Irza always tend to fight, and not play, with the boys, hahaha... Which reminds me or another thing, sometimes Irza refers himself as a "playboy". Of course, his definition of playboy is "a boy who likes to play...."

Ternyata banyak sekali alumni UI yang sekarang bermukim di Singapura, terbukti dari banyaknya mereka yang datang ke acara reuni tersebut. Saya tadinya menyangka acara reuni tersebut akan didominasi oleh rekan-rekan alumni 
Makanan yang disediakan beraneka ragam, mulai dari sate ayam, pempek, bakso, ayam bakar, ketupat, nasi goreng, ayam goreng, tempe mendoan, bakwan, combro, bahkan serabi dan banyak lagi jenis makanan Indonesia lainnya. Tidak lupa juga ada acara sesi foto untuk tiap fakultas dan tiap jurusan di depan spanduk "Reuni UI Singapore" lengkap dengan logo Makara-nya. Saya sendiri ditodong oleh Mbak Hany untuk berfoto bersama rekan-rekan lulusan pascasarjana UI lainnya.

We ordered fried butter squid, hotplate spicy chicken and mixed vegetables (chap chay) for the main dishes, ice milo, ice barley and ice green tea for the drinks, and some ice creams for the kids' desserts.
The service is quite efficient, served by mostly Indian servants, similar to 
Yesterday, on a nice Saturday morning (3 November 2007), I took Inka and Irza to 
So, this time round, we decided not to climb the hill again, and instead we went to the Hindhede Nature Park near the entrance to the nature reserve. The nature park is a hit for Inka and Irza since there's a playground with swings, slides and suspension bridges near the Waringin Hut. The slides are unique since they are both long slides going down to a valley. Inka and Irza are also having a great time with the slinger at the picnic area. We also played badminton at an open space near the picnic area.
We also went to the Lookout Point, which is overlooking the Hindhede Quarry, a massive wall of limestones near a pond. Inka and Irza actually also wanted to go up the hill again but the sun was already going up quite high at that time, so I'll guess we'll have to come back again later...
Dimulai dari 
Tidak mau merepotkan istri lagi, dan mengingat saya udah sempet ngeliatin waktu istri bikin waktu itu, akhirnya saya memutuskan untuk bikin sendiri. Istri membantu menyiapkan bahan-bahan dan peralatan yang diperlukan. Irza diperbantukan untuk ikut membantu ngulek adonan, ngolesin telur kuning, naburin keju dan nyetak adonan. :)
Bikinnya ternyata cukup mudah, istri yang ngasih resepnya. 250 gram mentega (terdiri dari 200 gram margarin dan 50 gram butter) dan 2 kuning telur di-mix sampai rata, baru sedikit demi sedikit masukkan terigu (total 350 gram) dan keju parut (total sekitar 200 gram) dan diaduk manual sampai rata (ngga bisa pake mixer, jadi tangan agak pegel, untung ada Irza yang ikut bantuin ngaduk-ngaduk).
Adonan kemudian digiling biar tipis-tipis, olesin dengan kuning telur pake kuas, terus taburin sisa keju parut terus cetak pake cetakan khusus yang udah disiapkan. Taro di loyang, terus panggang di oven dengan suhu 170 derajat sekitar 20-30 menit.
Karena saya nyetak adonannya lebih tipis dibandingkan istri saya kemarin, hasilnya ternyata kastengelnya lebih "crispy" dan lebih gurih (boleh dong muji hasil karya sendiri *narsis mode=on*) dibandingkan hasil bikinan istri saya. Dan, karena versi "tipker" (tipis kering) ini, dengan jumlah adonan yang sama, saya bisa menghasilkan dua toples kastengel, sementara istri kemarin cuma menghasilkan satu toples lebih dikit.

Hari Minggu berikutnya, pada tanggal 26 Agustus 2007, kita mengundang beberapa (tidak banyak) keluarga Indonesia di Singapura lainnya ke acara BBQ ulang tahun untuk Irza. Acara kecil-kecilan tersebut diadakan di BBQ pit dekat kolam renang di Club House kompleks apartemen. Beberapa teman Inka dan Irza yang datang diantaranya adalah tetangga 
Sayangnya, kita tidak bisa menggunakan kolam renangnya karena sedang under maintenance. Walaupun demikian, acara BBQ tersebut berjalan dengan lancar. Istri mengadakan acara dekorasi cupcakes untuk anak-anak, dan ternyata anak-anak tersebut mahir mendekorasi cupcakes tersebut. Hasilnya bagus-bagus. :) Anak-anak juga having a great time bermain dengan balon, dan juga bermain di playground yang terletak tidak jauh dari lokasi acara.
Bagaimana dengan menu BBQ-nya? Ada sate ayam bulgogi, sate sapi bulgogi dan chicken wing dari

Sebenarnya, pas jam 9pm waktu pertunjukan kembang api seharusnya dimulai, lokasi mobil kita itu pas banget di tengah-tengah Marina Boulevard, lokasi yang paling bagus dan strategis untuk nonton. Eh, ternyata mulainya terlambat 20 menit, dan pada saat kembang api-nya mulai dinyalakan pas jam 9:20pm, mobil kita udah terlalu ke arah timur, dan pandangan ke arah teluk terhalang seng pembatas area pembangunan integrated resort. Mumpung tidak ada petugas, saya bersama Inka dan Irza langsung turun dari mobil, sementara istri tetap stay di mobil sambil foto-foto.
Last Saturday (28/7) morning, I took the kids to 
We went there to attend school's Fun Day and Open House 2007. There are lots of activities which the kids can participate in, including many types of games (provided by the students for the students).
To play the games, we would need to use coupons which were being sold for 20 cents per coupon. Some games only require one coupon, some others require two or three coupons. Best of all, there are prizes given to the kids depends on the result of the games being played.

Hari Sabtu minggu lalu, 14 Juli 2007, setelah mampir ke rumah 
Disana, kita bertemu dengan 
Anak-anak pada senang bermain di tempat bermain yang berada pas di depan blok rumah Tante Shinta. Sayangnya, entah kenapa, Irza kurang bisa bergabung dan bermain sementara Inka asyik bermain dengan teman-temannya, membuat Irza agak merasa "dikucilkan" mengingat biasanya dia selalu bermain dengan Inka. Tapi pada umumnya, anak-anak tersebut semuanya really having a great time. :)
Last Sunday (8 July 2007) evening, after dropping 
The ticket price is S$23 for adult and S$13 for children. Quite expensive for a short 10-minute ride, but it's quite worth for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Inka and Irza previously was a bit afraid when they saw the balloon went up quite high, but I managed to persuade them to try and board the balloon.
It's quite high, indeed, and not recommended for those who are afraid of heights. The view from the balloon on its peak at 150 meters above ground is quite amazing.
Hari Sabtu (7 Juli 2007) yang lalu, kita sekeluarga pergi ke 
Dari bandara Changi, kita meneruskan perjalanan ke 
Total ada tiga kue ulang tahun yang disiapkan, dua untuk Fazil dan satu untuk Tante Gita. Tentu saja, ada acara tiup lilinnya juga, untuk Fazil dan juga untuk Fathir (mewakili Mama-nya). Tante Gita sempet grogi ketika mencoba menyalakan api lilin di kue ulang tahun Fazil yang di tengah, dan ternyata tidak mau nyala. Akhirnya, satu lilin dari kue Tante Gita dipindahkan ke kue-nya Fazil. :)
Banyak sekali makanan yang disiapkan oleh para ibu-ibu ISM untuk acara ini. Ada mie ayam, mie bakso dan segala jenis makanan khas Indonesia lainnya, termasuk 
Anak-anak senang sekali bermain di playground disana. Tempat bermainnya besar, dan banyak sekali jenis permainan yang tersedia, mulai dari ayunan, piring berputar dan lain-lain. Juga ada lapangan yang bisa digunakan untuk bermain bola, tidak hanya untuk anak-anak, tapi untuk para Bapak juga. :) Padahal bola yang digunakan hanyalah bola kecil karet punya Irza. :)
I have seen many vending machines throughout 
One of the results of the renovation works is the opening of the new rooftop garden, located on the 3rd floor, which is equipped with a new play area. The new play area consist of the usual "dry" playground, which equipments were previously located indoor on the 2nd floor, plus a new "wet" water play area.
The kids were having fun on both the dry and wet playgrounds. There's also a change area for the kids to take shower and change. The most important thing, it's free. :) The only downside is that it's outdoor, which means it can be very hot during the day. It's recommended to bring your kids there in the morning or evening. Don't forget to bring swim-gears for the kids.

Inka, Irza and the whole family went back to Jakarta between 31 May and 12 June 2007 for a short holiday, making use of the kids' June school holiday. We left Singapore for Jakarta on Thursday, 31 May 2007. That day was a public holiday, 
Sadly, it was *NOT* a public holiday in Jakarta. For some reason, Indonesians celebrated Vesak Day on Friday, 1 June 2007 instead. Don't know what caused this difference. I thought that day was also a public holiday in Jakarta, but it was not. Can you guess how did that matter to us?

Pada hari Sabtu, 28 April 2007 yang lalu, kita sekeluarga pergi ke kediaman Om Satya dan Tante Non di Regent Park, Clementi, untuk menghadiri acara ulang tahun Dhanin yang kedua. Dhanin adalah putra kedua Om Satya dan Tante Non. Saat ini, Tante Non sedang menantikan kelahiran anaknya yang ketiga.
Kita juga bertemu dengan keluarga 
Keesokan paginya, Minggu, 29 April 2007, kita pergi ke 
Walaupun termasuk tempat wisata yang cukup terkenal di bagian barat Singapura, Chinese Garden tidak mengenakan biaya masuk bagi pengunjung yang datang, kecuali jika ada event khusus disana, seperti acara Lantern Festival yang diadakan setiap tahun disana. Jadi, cukup worth lah untuk dikunjungi. Banyak photo spots bagi penggemar kamera foto. Sayang lokasinya cukup jauh dari hotel-hotel di daerah Orchard dan pusat kota Singapura dimana banyak turis-turis menginap. Tapi, Chinese Garden bisa dikunjungi sekalian kalau mau mengunjungi 
Tujuan kita ke Chinese Garden pada pagi itu adalah untuk pergi ke sebuah paviliun yang dibangun di sisi danau. Dari paviliun itu, kita bisa memberi makan ikan, kura-kura dan bahkan burung, dengan potongan-potongan roti yang sudah dibeli oleh Om Pambudi sebelumnya. Inka dan Irza benar-benar enjoy bermain bersama Ilma, Nadia dan Adrian sambil memberi makan ikan dan kura-kura disana. Foto-fotonya 
Keluarga Om Pambudi dan Tante Dini adalah keluarga yang paling dekat dengan kita, mengingat mereka juga tinggal di kompleks apartemen yang sama, bahkan di blok yang sama, hanya berbeda lobby saja. Sayangnya, mereka pada akhir bulan Mei ini akan hijrah ke 
Hari Jum'at malam, 2 Maret 2007, setelah hari terakhir 
Sebenarnya, kita bisa memilih duduk di dalam restoran, atau di luar restoran tersebut, diatas pasir di pinggir pantai. Sayangnya, pada saat itu, cuaca tidak terlalu bagus, angin kencang sekali sehingga kalau kita makan di luar (di pinggir pantai), dijamin semuanya akan masuk angin. :) Sehingga akhirnya kita memilih duduk di dalam restoran, walaupun saya, Irza dan Aki sempet juga foto-foto di luar di tepi pantai, walaupun gelap-nya minta ampun. Seafood-nya kita pilih sendiri pada waktu masih dalam keadaan hidup, jadi setelah kita pilih, baru nanti dimasak dan dihidangkan. Kita memilih ikan untuk dibakar dan digoreng (duh saya lupa jenis ikannya apa), chilli crab dan udang goreng mentega. Makanannya ternyata enak-enak, dan ternyata biaya yang harus kita keluarkan tidak mahal. Dengan pesanan yang cukup banyak untuk kita berenam (empat dewasa dan dua anak), berikut minuman dan dessert seperti es kelapa muda, total jendral cuma sekitar tiga ratus ribu rupiah.
Keesokan hari-nya, Sabtu 3 Maret 2007, adalah hari terakhir kita di Bali. Pagi-pagi setelah sarapan, kita menyempatkan diri untuk jalan-jalan ke 
Memasuki pulau tersebut, kita akan melewati sebuah gerbang berupa candi kecil yang dinamakan Candi Bentar. Menyusuri jalan setapak melewati padang rumput yang cukup luas, di bagian tengah pulau tersebut ada sebuah monumen bertuliskan nama-nama negara yang ikut berpartisipasi dalam proses penanaman pohon-pohon di pulau itu. Kita meneruskan perjalanan ke arah ujung timur pulau itu, untuk melihat waterblow.
Waterblow ini adalah semburan air keatas yang diakibatkan oleh ombak yang datang menerjang kumpulan batu-batu karang yang berlubang, dan tekanan ombak tersebut mengakibatkan air laut disemburkan keatas. Waterblow tersebut terjadi setiap sekitar 30-40 detik sekali, tergantung kekuatan ombak yang datang. Makin kuat ombaknya, makin tinggi semburannya. Inka dan Irza suka sekali melihat fenomena alam ini.
Siangnya, kita bersiap-siap untuk pulang ke Singapura, sementara Aki dan Ene juga pulang ke Jakarta. Untungnya, jam keberangkatan pesawat kita hampir bersamaan sehingga kita bisa berangkat ke 
Perjalanan ke bandara hanya membutuhkan waktu kurang dari setengah jam. Aki dan Ene turun duluan di terminal keberangkatan domestik, sedangkan kita semua turun di terminal keberangkatan internasional. Setelah check-in dan ngurus bebas fiskal yang ternyata berjalan lancar, kita pun melewati imigrasi dan masuk ke ruangan transit bandara Ngurah Rai yang cukup megah dan lengkap. Ada banyak toko duty free termasuk toko
