Jakarta airport customs tighten luggage checks – Local News

@ Jakarta car-free day – April 2009

Car-free day is meant to reduce pollution & create atmosphere along Sudirman to Thamrin Boulevard, Jakarta. At this time, the road was filled with people participating events (futsal matches, fun games, music performances, marching band), while some others are just enjoying taking a stroll and cycling, even two world-touring cyclists enjoy car-free day today.

But since there was an accident when a Mayasari Bakti bus hit a boy while he was crossing the road to chase his ball, the event would now run from 6 a.m. to 12 p.m rather than from 6. a.m. to 2 p.m.

So if you have an opportunity to visit Jakarta, pretty please, free your time on the 4th Sunday of the month, and i’ll take you downtown to enjoy Jakarta car-free day.
