A trip with the Gajayana

December 2009 - I was surprised when I boarded the Gajayana train a few weeks ago. It was a completely new train, built by PT INKA in Madiun. No broken windows, very comfy chairs and even a power outlet with every couple of chairs. These pictures are an impression of the train and it's journey through the island of Java.

OSA Goliath; Indonesian shipbuilding

July 2009 - Earlier this year the OSA Goliath, built for Coastline Maritime by Drydocks World Pertama on the Indonesian island of Batam, was delivered. Earlier on, late 2008, I had the chance to bring a visit to this shipyard and have a look around on the then half-finished ship. With a dimension of 180x32x12 meters and a weight of 22,000 tonnes the vessel is undoubtedly the world's largest vessel in its class built so far and the largest ship ever built in Indonesia.

Batam; the failed Singapore?

April 2009 - Batam, at just a stones throw from the wealthy city-state of Singapore, has undergone tremendous growth just because of it's close proximity to that Singapore. Companies opened businesses on the island and the infrastructure was face-lifted. But the current Batam is in no way any match for Singapore because of a number of reasons. One of them, of course, is corruption.

Along the train tracks of Jakarta

March 2009 - Railroads are an integral part of the transport system on the islands of Java and Sumatra. Mainly in Jakarta are hundreds of kilometers of railroads hidden between buildings, rivers and roads. A part of it is no longer in use because all kinds of reasons, but the other part is still in use for transporting people and goods as of today.

January 2009 - During a short trip by electrical train from station Pondok Ranji in the southern suburbs of Jakarta to Tanah Abang somewhere in the center of the megapole, there is much to see in the train and in the direct vicinity of the two iron beams that carry the train through the urban jungle.
