The first longer stay during our trip to Asia was in Blora, Indonesia, to visit my wife's family. Meanwhile we are already in Bangkok, but since I don't have much time to write articles at the moment, I'm only now beginning with my reports about our time in Blora. Today I show you some photos of different walks we took in the rather rural region. I think the pictures speak for themselves even without detailed comments. |
Den ersten längeren Aufenthalt während unserer Asienreise hatten wir in Blora, Indonesien, um die Familie meiner Frau zu besuchen. Inzwischen sind wir schon in Bangkok, aber da ich momentan kaum Zeit zum Artikelschreiben habe, beginne ich erst jetzt mit meinen Berichten über unsere Zeit in Blora. Heute zeige ich euch einige Fotos von verschiedenen Spaziergängen, die wir in der ziemlich ländlichen Region unternahmen. Ich denke, die Bilder sprechen auch ohne ausführlich Kommentare für sich. |

It was a very nice walk in Indonesia and showing many photos different places. It's very nice to see them from your post and I could see how there is look like. Good job! :)

Ich sehe, lieber @jaki01, du gehst mit offenen Augen durch die welt. Das ist schön. Das machen nicht viele. Die Gegend ist toll, mit den Reisfeldern und den Bananenplantagen. Die absolute Ruhe dort bei den Feldern. Ist bei euch gerade Trockenzeit in Indonesien? Oder sieht es nur so aus... Hier in Sri Lanka regnet es gerade jeden Tag immer wieder. Aber das bricht kein Bein ab. Wünsche dir eine schöne Weiterreise und vor allem einen tollen Urlaub

Nice walk! It’s good to see @kobold-djawa’s village! The scenery of the field is really great! The teak has amazing barks. The flowers are all beautiful, especially the white one that is my most favorite. The sunset is very magnificent! I especially like the way you took photos of the sun behind those trees. Great shot! These can brighten my day!
I myself like to walk among nice nature like this, too. Your photos remind me to Phatthalung, my hometown, which is in the countryside of Thailand, it's similar atmosphere.
Your little princess is very cute, even when she sleeps…. It seems that she enjoyed walking among this nice nature as I can see from her cheerful smile… It’s very good exercise for her as well.
You had really good times with your warm family indeed! ;)
Have a nice trip to Phuket and a safe trip back to Germany! :))

Herzliche Grüße über das Südchinesische Meer nach Bangkok. :-)
Es ist sehr interessant einen Einblick in die Heimat deiner Frau zu erhalten und auch einmal @srikandi, zumindest am Foto, kennen zu lernen! Der kleine Sonnenschein scheint sich bei seinen Verwandten auch sehr wohl zu fühlen. :-)
Der Verkehr ist auch hier in Teipeh ein sichtbares Problem. Laut dem Echtzeit-Luft-Qualitätsindex (AQI) wird die Luftqualität im Norden Taiwans als "Gut" bis "mäßig"eingestuft, was auch meinem Empfinden entspricht. Was mich sehr überrascht hat, ist, dass hier zumindest der Plastikmüll getrennt wird.
Ich wünsche euch noch schöne Tage in Bangkok und bei redpalestino in Kuala Lumpur!

Ich war noch nie in Taiwan, aber es überrascht mich nicht, dass Luft - und vermutlich auch Straßenränder? - dort relativ sauber sind.
Es sind in den meisten Fällen die ärmeren Länder Südostasiens (Indonesian, Thailand, die Philippinen, ...) mit nicht funktionierenden Müllentsorgungssystemen, Menschen, deren mangelnde Bildung (wofür wiederum die Politik verantwortlich ist) und oft prekäre Lebensumstände (die ihnen andere Dinge als den Umweltschutz vordringlicher erscheinen lassenen) zu Ignoranz gegenüber Umweltproblemen führen und Politikern, die vor allem ihren eigenen Reichtum im Blick haben, in denen verheerende Zustände herrschen.
Euch wünsche ich auch weiterhin alles Gute auf eurer Reise! :)

Ja, auch die Straßenränder sind sauber. Die Müllabfuhr, die sich mit einigen Takten aus Beethoven's 'Elise' lautstark ankündigt, fährt täglich zweimal ihre Runden.
Hier in Taipeh ist mir negativ aufgefallen, dass beinahe alles und jedes in Plastikfolie verpackt wird oder eingeschweißt ist. Den Plastikmüll, als einen der größten Verursacher der Umweltverschmutzung, einzudämmen, das wird die große Herausforderung sein, der sich besonders auch die von dir angesprochenen Länder stellen müssen. Patentrezept existiert dafür leider keines.

By the way, @kobold-djawa cousin is @srikandi, isn't right?

Your guess is right. :)
However, most of the time I am doing the upvoting for her, as she still isn't using Steemit (and the internet) very often (so also don't be surprised in case she still isn't answering to your comments). I hope in future she will start to write, read and answering comments here more often.
Yes, sure, there are also quite some positive aspects (friendly and helpful people, tasty food, beautiful nature, in case it's still intact) ... and pollution is a worldwide problem, also in Germany.
But as a fact, in southeast Asia, destruction of environment is disastrous: contiguous to most of the streets you can find huge amounts of all kinds of plastic. The big cities are crowded and full of traffic jam, which causes smog and noise. Public transportation should be improved, quiet electric cars and motor bikes (like nowadays in some Chinese cities) should become more popular, and I think in the era of internet and online conferences more people should work from home.

It's very unfortunate that in the village of @kobold-djawa there are still internet difficulties, just like my village.
In fact, in the era of digital economy-based competition, the internet is very important.
Related to pollution, it has become a common problem in the world, but at least the most important thing is that we should not think like "why make changes like throwing garbage in its place if other people still do it?"
So, I'm sure that the changes to come from within ourselves first.
By the way, my sister has an electric bicycle like this:
Image by Google. Good enough to reduce pollution, even though it can only be used at certain distances :)

I think not only internet speed must be good enough but also companies should adapt to the fact that nowadays it is possible for more people to work at home - for example there is no reason why programmers shouldn't make a big part of their job at home.
However, most bosses are still accustomed to see their employees every day at their work place (I guess then they have the feeling of being better able to control them).
That means not only technological improvements but also a change of the way of thinking is necessary.
You are right: if one calls politicians to take some measures against pollution and criticizes to see plastic everywhere, one should at least also take care to set a good pattern for others. I try that whenever possible. For example yesterday I told a seller not to give me a plastic bag, because I could put all bought things into my backpack.

I totally agree with you. The company should understand this. Actually, even now I hate working conditions in the office. I feel ineffective at working in the office. I'm often late for office.
In fact, I still do my job well if I don't go to the office. I've talked about this with them, but they want me to work in the office. Their thinking cannot adapt to the current job system.
In fact, my work is more spent online, taking care of the problems that exist in the world of social media. I totally agree with you. The company should understand this.

In fact, now meeting with clients is only done online with the "Zoom Meeting" service

Oh my! when you said 'Her fam lives in the village' I didn't really imagine like this VILLAGE-VILLAGE. This is totally a real deal! Hahhaa I love the vibes like that but it's actually not that easy (at least not so close to bangkok) to get the vibe like there in Blora! The little still is happy as always with THAT SMILE! Bwahahha :D miss that!
Hope everything goes well and oh! just a small news, you could actually power down on Whaleshares since Oct 1 and it now can be traded on Bitshares (as we're discussing about it before)
Safe travel tomorrow you guys!! :)

Indonesia is a paradise ... but one which is seriously threatened by pollution. Contiguous to most of the streets you can find huge amounts of all kinds of plastic.

If what one does, requires no physical presence, then they should be working from home.

Physical presence? Come on: you should make enough space at your home for your complete laboratory, that's really not too much to asked for. ;-)
No, it wouldn't work for everybody, but I think they should try to find ways to make it possible to work at home for as much as possible people.
