Wait, they were wearing ...loafers. That's a tell-tale sign.



And son, if it takes ya three weeks to get a flag in jakarta, you might want to find another hobby.

Every other day in Jakarta I see some obvious PUA in wingman teams patrolling the malls, wearing "loafers" or some other stereotypical ridiculous PUA outfits and trying always the same techniques on the women... That stuff is really getting old.

The future of PUA is rather to settle and focus on few given places of your choice (rather than running around like a headless chicken just to get "flags", which does not make any sense, practically) and doing all of it in a very discrete, underground way, and do our best to offer "plausible denial". That is how I see the evolution of this movement. The conventional way of "hitting the nightclubs" is yielding less and less results.

You live in JKT? Where are you seeing this? I have seen the odd dude trying some daygame here and there but 'stereotypical ridiculous PUA outfits'? Am interested to hear more...

I'm pretty sure a night out in Jakarta with Irish would change your mind

A classic case of making a ridiculous, inaccurate albeit comical comment and then disappearing when asked to explain it. Also, do sex tourists generally frequent malls? Not gonna get any action in there.

I am doing fine, thanks. I'm saying that our reputation as a whole is suffering these days because of the sex tourists being more and more obvious, especially the ones shuttling from Singapore for the weekend.

In the central malls, and mostly Grand Indonesia.

Post: #306

That is crazy. I live in Jakarta on and off and have never seen anyone hitting on a girl here outside of a club. I even barely see foreigners, even in Pusat where Grand Indonesia is located.

Post: #307

Going to Jakarta this weekend if anyone is around and wanna party send me a pm

Post: #308

I've been here a few days and spent quite a bit of time at Grand Indo. If there was any people running day game there I surely didn't see them.

I know it's been said already and even thought I read it on here I was blown away by the nightlife. The girls are much hotter than they are on tinder or at the mall and probably the easiest place in the world for an average white guy to have success. I was meeting a girl out and didn't even make one lap around the bar and had a girl open me. The drinks here are crazy expensive but small price to pay for not getting blown out constantly or having it be a huge sausage party.

If anyone is in Jakarta and wants to meet up shoot me a PM.

So you are in Indonesia because it's easy to get laid there, and complaining about guys doing the same thing? I would love to move to an island with a million women where I was the only guy, but to complain about it not happening would simply make me crazy. If you want to go to a place where guys aren't going there to pick up women or get flags I think New Zealand or Australia would be perfect for you.

Hey guys, for those who have experience with jakarta girls, I'm planning to spend a week there with a friend, I'm wondering if booking a 2BR Serviced apartment could hinder our ability to bang chicks considering that we'll be sharing the flat. Maybe it might scare some girls if they ask whether i'm staying alone or not?
Anyone had experience with that?

Thanks alot!

I did the same thing last time I was in Jakarta. Didn't hinder me at all. In fact, I think it actually made things easier. Sometimes my dates met my friend's dates in the living room and they instantly exchanged Facebook and were chatting in Bahasa for half an hour. It is astounding how easy they can connect with people they have never seen before. Give them 10 minutes with each other and they are new best friends.

For those who keep asking about what clubs are open over Ramadan - everything generally shuts the first and the last week of Ramadan. But some reopen in the middle two weeks, tho tend to be quiet and shut early.

immigrant and colloseum are open 'as normal' apparently. However whether they're going to be busy or any good is another matter and I suspect they shut early. DF is closed. Basque are open but closing 1am. Still might be a good shout if you happen to be there.

Also look out for bars craftily conceal their booze by serving it in little teapots as well

Post: #313

Apparently 1 am is closing time everywhere which is lame as hell. Pipelined a list targets are off to Bali. But the 6.5 range girls are left behind. Online is where it's at. All these tinder girls go to the clubs , exact same pie.

Edit. Seems like a few places close at 230-300

Post: #315

So I've been to Jakarta recently for a quick bang trip let me share my thoughts:

The City:

As experienced before, the city itself is a dump, and the traffic situation only getting worse. Use Uber to get around, but make sure you call the Uber 10 minutes before your ready as they take a while to get there. The rides are usually around $2-5, which is dirt cheap.

Speaking of expenses, the five star luxury hotel accommodation is among the cheapest in the world. If you have hotel elite status, this is the place to be, as your lounge access will give you free access to the booze (no small luxury in this Muslim country).

Nightlife:

The only place I went to was Basque. It is open until 2 AM at the minimum during Ramadan. However, talent levels were extremely weak, with almost 0 local guys and filled with mostly bule and bule loving girls. I would say I saw at max 1 or 2 7's in the entire club, mostly 4/5, with surprisingly quite a few overweight girls (3-). If this is the best that nightlife has to offer, count me out. Not to mention the brutal US pricing on drinks.

On previous trips have been to Dragonfly and X2, also similar quality so this isn't some sort of Ramadan issue.

Online:

The bad news is there's around 80-90% of the girls on Tinder are plain fugly, with around half having some sort of Hijab (has anyone here actually tried pulling one of these). These girls use a TON of filters as every single girl I met was significantly darker then their photos. Even the lightest girl I met was perhaps my shade, which is not the "whitest" to begin with (call it a very slight tan). If you like pale chicks, avoid this place. The only exception is the indo-chinese community, and I found them to be the hardest / flakiest, even if I was of Chinese decent (definitely need more then a weekend trip to close the deal).

Now the good news, even if you only swipe yes to 10%, the match rate is HUGE. I'd consistently match with 6/6.5 , half of the 7s, and even the occasional 8 (an almost impossible feat online). I must have matched with at least 500+ girls by pipe lining the week before, use the excel spreadsheet system to keep track of them all, as I left some plates hanging on accident.

Weekend Bang Trip Results:

I got the golden touchdown immediately upon landing, with a girl coming over and having drinks before getting the business done. While her body was a 8+, her tan skin and braces made this girl a 6. Her picture filter game was on point to make her skin white, and show off her body, not her braces. Not to mention her freaking out after the fact, hounding me with questions about my sexual history, while this girl probably been pumped and dumped by ever bule in town.

Next day, a professional model I've been working on banging for the last month (visited before but didn't meet her then), miraculously had free time between her photo shoots and came over for some tea. As expected a bit of a nutcase, constantly checking her phone, and throwing so many red flags. Not to mention looked shorter then her pictures, but still easily top 1% of the country in looks with her barbie like physique. Good news about her fame whoring ways, her phone battery was about to die, so she needed a charger, which meant a quick trip to my room. (Reverse Phone Charging game?). Doesn't drink, but after a bit convincing, banged her out while her assistant kept calling her, and finished all over and into her hair. Hottest girl I've banged this year (8). Off she went 30 minutes afterwards, and never hanging out again.

At night, a girl whose been talking with me a lot online came over at midnight, and we hit up Basque. Her pictures looked better online then in person, I'd give her a soft 6, but a tiny petite spinner so why not. Terrible quality at Basque and tried to bounce to my room. Perhaps she was wary of my player vibes, called an uber before we got up. Ultimately, I couldn't be badgered, and I let her go home after a make out. For some reason the ones that talk online always seem to be the worst.

Day 3, woke up early in the morning messaged one of my online targets, who appears in the national media quite often, she must have been near ovulation as one half nude selfie got her to get an Uber and come straight to my room. Within 30 minutes we were banging. I put her a solid 6.5, although the fact shes on TV constantly bumps her to a 7 in my eyes. Afterwards, she had to go to work as her friends kept badgering her phone (common occurrence), and left without incident.

At night, I got another target to come over. From her pics, I'd give her a solid 7, but alas again, she turned out to be much darker then imagined. Great body though and a nice fuck me face. Tallest girl I met in Indo, probably 165+ (goes to show how short most girls are). Did the whole drinks routine, got to my room, but TONS of LMR (why are these girls wearing pants not dress) Probably again due to my lack of not giving a fuck, as I probably if motivated enough could have banged her brains out.

We went to Basque, and terrible like the night before, saw the exact same 7 with the exact same bule, my girl was probably among the top 5 hottest girls there, which is saying how bad the quality was. As she left her stuff behind, I assumed an easy fuck, but again the same Uber trick and she was gone.

My flight was at night the next day, so had time to get a flight attendant to come over. Ordered some room service, but sadly she doesn't drink cause of Ramadan (damn it), but after lots of LMR and finger blasting her, she blew me with one of those porn star looking faces and I quickly blasted all over her. A very solid 7 in my book, the only one that looked exactly like her pictures (besides the model). I then headed to the airport.

Overall stats for a 4 day trip:

6 Pulls, 3 Bangs, 1 BJ. I am not made for the two a days, gotta work on that stamina. Banged a model, so there's that, but that was such a fluke that I wouldn't count on that happening again.

I would say 2 of those 6 pulls were definite Bule Hunters / night club regulars, and showed with attitude. The other 4 no way would have met them without online, so there's that.

Jakarta is a great place to do a weekend bang trip, or even a week, but the city itself is just terrible for living. I guess if you can afford and hole up in one of these luxury apartments / hotels could live here long term, but couldn't imagine dealing with the pollution or traffic. Bring a nice bottle of alcohol to save considerable amounts of money.

Also I was hampered coming in on Ramadan, as all the hottest matches were in Bali / abroad escaping Ramadan, so results could have even be better. Can't wait to come here again.

Use Tinder and forget wasting your money on the nightlife, if you are a young good looking EA or Bule, this is on par if not better then Bangkok. Caveat, if pale skin is a deal breaker avoid at all places. But there are girls here with just a slight tan instead of looking completely dark.

I agree with you man, i went to see the quality of girls in indoclubbing.com, it was pretty bad at most popular clubs, and that was even before ramadan. I can safely say that it's the worst quality out of SEA nightclubs. Good thing that these girls are easy as fuck , otherwise i dont see the point.

Well damn, I better cancel my flights then.

When it comes to research it really doesn't get much more thorough than that...

Bkk seems better than Jakarta these days. That and you could actually go out and chill riding the BTS.

Post: #319

Quick update on the scene in Jakarta. Things are in a bit of transition at the moment, nightlife is somewhat unpredictable. All the previously mentioned best venues are still going but you sense they're coming to the end of their run with crowds dropping and door policy loosening.

The best venue which I kept quiet up until it started getting mentioned recently - Basque - as long since been well discovered and now at the weekend attracts hoards of thirsty white dudes who are getting more and more aggressive in approaching/harassing the chicks. Which in turn has scared off all the top end talent, so we're left with (mostly) the B-level bottlerats and tinderellas getting their attention-fix.

That said it still is a decent shout for midweek. And there still isn't really an adequate substitute to replace it thus far as the go to pre-club bar at weekends for picking up talent. So still worth trying out at the weekend, it just ain't anything like what it was.

I've since experimented and checked out some bars along the Senopati area. There are decent venues but the vibe of the area in general is very much the party area for the local rich folk who all know eachother. I was with my gf at the time so couldn't really get my hands too dirty but my impression is that given the insular vibe it's not great for chasing skirt if you're bule and particularly if you're new in town.

Immigrant has gone to shit of late. Friday's are dead and Saturday's, which used to be a bit of a gold mine, now are pretty shit with quite frankly an odd crowd showing up now. There still can be decent quality girls that show up but they're few and far between now. Place had a good innings, but now desperately needs to do something to reinvent itself.

Dragonfly, which went from awesome to dreadful when they refurbished nearly 2 years ago has gradually been improving ever since. Now the Chinese have almost totally moved out and brought their bottle service pissing contest with them back to the likes of Empirica and Blowfish. It's still nothing like the old glory days of the previous DF, but still maybe worth checking out particularly on their big night on a Friday when Immigrant is empty and Jenja is potentially a ball ache to get to due to traffic. That said, the club is still fairly poorly laid out for cold approaching and most quality looking birds will be on someone's table. But results can be had there still if your club game is on point.

Jenja - a bit of a drive south to Kemang but a decent alternative to Immi and DF. Can be hit or miss on the chicks stakes and somewhat unpredictable. It's one for the more hardcore underground DJ club scene and is fairly local so you don't get so much the bule hunting girls, rather the ones more into their music without necessarily being the druggy types who frequent Kota. A decent club itself but wouldn't be my first port of call if I'm looking to get some actions. But worth sticking your head in for a change of scenery

X2 I've not been to in years now. But I still hear it's much the same: ie younger, piss easy chicks but the quality ain't great. Has the reputation of being a bit pikey (rightly so) so most of the top grade birds won't be seen dead in there. But ideal hail mary option.

I'll continue to keep my ear close to the ground on developments and perhaps try a few more new venues while the scene is in a bit of a lull.

Post: #320

I was in Jakarta recently for a couple of days and didn't like it at all. It's a shithole but not in a charming, exciting way like Manila. Just in a sad, slightly aggressive way.

Yes the girls are easy but they are too everywhere else in Asia. Also, girls in Jakarta are generally very ugly and just going about your day to day life, you won't bump into many attractive girls. Your only options are to hit the specific clubs and go on Tinder.

I stayed in the Thamrin area as that seemed to be the general consensus on this thread but I wouldn't recommend it at all. I didn't get a chance to do that much exploring and would certainly go back and try staying in some different places.

To someone who has been to some different cities in Asia, certainly check it out and hopefully you'll find some better places than me. However to someone who hasn't been to Asia before and reads this thread and thinks that Jakarta is the place to be, go to another city like Bangkok or Manila instead and you'll experience all of the positives of going to Jakarta plus a whole lot more.

Post: #321

Is Jakarta becoming really that bad?

I'm thinking of going there again and curious if I should spend less time in Jakarta and more in other cities (Surabaya, Yogya etc).
I used to be able to contact a group of party people to go out with, but they either moved, or aren't partying much anymore. So I'd probably have to make new friends.

Has anyone been to both Manila and Jakarta recently? Which place is easier to make new friends? The only friend I have in Manila won't be there around the time I can travel. The friends I have in Jakarta won't go out partying (but are great for social proof if I get into sort of a mini relationship).

Post: #322

Jakarta is nowhere near Manilla or BKK. I think the forum has overhyped the city, hence you see many white guys around Thamrin residence.
I think Jakarta has the lowest quality of girls ON AVERAGE of any Asian city i've been to. (Excluding Chinese-Indo)

I'm not sure if this has been discussed, but skin tone is a major factor in which country/city you prefer in Southeast Asia.

I think if you like Chinese Indo girls I assume you prefer them a bit lighter, correct?

Have you actually been? Or is this more of your 'extensive research' on indoclubbing.com?

Post: #325

Hahah.
Chinese indo are prob the least attractive.

You can't walk to place staying in thamrin. Even the road to grand indo from there has no pavements, and it's a hot walk. Girls just taxis for a 5 minute walk. So in that sense it's not like bkk where the city is very "exploráble" for a tourist, or even the Geenbelt area.

I went to Manila last nov. Manila is better for daygame as there are a lot of malls to game in. Filipinos are also abit more friendly and happy if you like, so it definilty makes it easier for tourists in town to enjoy themselves. English is spoken everywhere. However there are less clubs in Manila number wise, main one being Valkyrie. There are more bar type of environments in green belt and ortigas.

The forum data is abit outdated, I suggest not read stuff from like 3 years ago.
