Coastline:
Language: Indonesian, balinese but english is spoken fairly well in the touristy area's
Safety: Following the bombings in Bali (1 October 2005), there remains a high risk of terrorism directed against foreigners throughout the country and reports indicate that terrorists are planning further attacks on Westerners and western interests and are likely to be carried out at locations frequented by tourists. The Indonesian Police are on a state of high alert in Jakarta, and have deployed additional personnel around the city. The security situation remains unsettled in Sulawesi and foreigners are advised to avoid parts of Maluku, particularly Ambon, and Central Sulawesi. Visitors are also advised to avoid all travel to Aceh (except for those involved in humanitarian operations after the earthquake and tsunami which devastated the region in December 2004). It is strongly recommended that visitors contact their foreign office for the latest travel advice before travelling to Indonesia.

Communications: The international access code for Indonesia is +62. The outgoing code is 001 or 008 followed by the relevant country code (e.g. 00144 for the United Kingdom); it is not necessary to dial the first zero of the area code. For operator-assisted international calls, phone 101. The local mobile phone operators use GSM networks and have roaming agreements with most international operators. Internet cafes are available in the main towns and resorts.
Climate : Indonesia has an equatorial climate with two seasons that are influenced by the surrounding seas and determined by the monsoons. The dry season is from June to September and the wet season is from November to March. Relative humidity averages 80% all year round and thunderstorms are frequent. Average annual temperature ranges in Jakarta are from 23 degrees Celsius (73 degrees Fahrenheit) to 33 degrees Celsius (91 degrees Fahrenheit) all year.
