amandanism 0 Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 papua new guinea definitley up there. remote regions of indonesia, such as the indonesian side of borneo, kalimantan etc. actually even more visited parts of indo can be classified as fairly dangerous. Link to post Share on other sites

Markie 0 Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 A place Indosnm swears is very safe but which the U.S. government has put a travel alert on. Link to post Share on other sites
indosnm 0 Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Merkie, i have been to that place many times when there have been US travel alerts.. its a big place and depends on where you go to what danger you put yourself in! before last year we always used to say that Bali was safe.....

Markie 0 Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Not doubting you, Indosnm, just stating the obvious. But as a matter of opinion, with the pneumonia thing going around, Indonesia is probably safer than HK right now (but don't tell Enderzero) P.S. Merkie's o.k., just don't call me murky!

amandanism 0 Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 cancelled school here for a week. well local schools anyway. i guess they think the people at international schools have special immune systems or something Link to post Share on other sites
Markie 0 Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 People, especially doctors, here are very critical of our government's inaction on this issue, often quoting Singapore's positive action as an example where it seems to be well contained. Here, however, the numbers continue to rise. Link to post Share on other sites

Markie 0 Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 Markie is still healthy and happy and hopes he won't be barred from entering J-Land for a final fling in mushy snow in Arai in Easter. About half the people here go around in face masks and many went on a supermarket rampage when a hoaxer spread a rumour that Hong Kong was declared an Infected City. The Stock Market also took a drive. Schools have been stopped for two weeks and there are noticeably less people in the streets, shopping centres and restaurants. The disease continues to spread, but fortunately only at a rate of about 20 cases a day, so it is not exploding and though it is a cause of concern, I am not panicking yet.
