Jakarta? It must be Saturday

Jakarta - A typical large modern wealthy Asian city with 13MM people, traffic to match and spotless streets.  It's motto is "Unity in Diversity."  Clearly many Asian countries are represented here with warm, friendly people. Although primarily moslem, there are not many apparent mosques or calls to prayer.
There are numerous urban malls with more top designer stores than America's 5 largest cities combined - with noticeable economic disparity just  around the corner. Markets and a working harbour are just a few miles away - or 45 minutes in traffic.  March 7 to 9, 2010
