JAKARTA (Reuters Life!) - Film maker Garin Nugroho, best known in Indonesia for his stark social commentaries, has turned to religion, love and power in his latest work — a controversial adaptation of one of the great Hindu epics.

At one level, his “Opera Jawa”, or Java Opera, is a modern-day version of the Ramayana, a Hindu epic that tells the story of the conquests of King Rama, and the abduction of his wife Sita by the powerful demon-king Ravana.

But Nugroho’s visually stunning film has a wider appeal, even for audiences who are not familiar with the Ramayana, as it tackles the more universal subjects of feminism and sexuality.

“This movie is about rebellion, it’s about breaking free from repression,” Nugroho, dubbed Indonesia’s Ingmar Bergman, told Reuters. “This movie aims to give a voice to the weak.”

I am currently residing in West Jakarta, Indonesia and is planning to move to Solo.

I want to sell out most of my things like: used clothes, furnitures, home appliances, kitchen utensils, kids toys, etc.

I don’t want to organize a garage sale as I don’t have much time to spend but rather sell everything out one time.

Anybody knows who I can sell these things ou

The old clothes, I want to donate to orphanage (my kids stuff) and to home for the aged (adults clothes). Any orphanage or home for the aged nearby?

Serious reply only, please…

I always hear people talking about Obama going to terrorist schools. But i read that he went to school in Jakarta when he was 6 through 10 years old, because his mothers 2nd husband was from there.

Does going to school at 6 years old make you a terrorist? Is it an original sin type of thing, where he cant avoid it, he just has it? Seems awful tough on a 6 yr old.
so someone thinks he has muslim beliefs planted in his brain from when he was 6 years old? wow

Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hi, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black Muslim from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya & Ann Dunham, a white atheist from Wichita, Kansas. Obama’s parents met at the University of Hi. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His
father returned to Kenya. His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a radical Muslim from Indonesia. When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocated to Indonesia. Obama attended a Muslim school in Jakarta. He also spent two yrs in a Catholic school. Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim. He is quick to point out that, “He was once a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic school.” Obama’s political handlers are attempting to make it appear
that Obama’s introduction to Islam came via his father, a Jakarta. Wah! abism is the radical teaching that is followed
by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world. Know the facts.
I don’t intend to offend anyone, I knew this would be a hot topic though, For the record I believe he knew he’d have a better chance of being elected if he began attending a “Christian Church” he was raised radical Muslim…. those beliefs run deep… and I’m not risking my freedom… this is exatley the type of stunt the terrorist would try to pull.

Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black Muslim from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white atheist from Wichita, Kansas. Obama’s parents met at the University of Hawaii.

When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to Kenya. His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a radical Muslim from Indonesia. When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocated to Indonesia. Obama attended a Muslim school in Jakarta. He also spent two years in a Catholic school.

Obama’s political handlers are attempting to make it appear that Obama’s introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best. In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct influence over his son’s education. Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obamaas mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam. Osama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta. Wahabism is the radical teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world.

Since it is politically expedient to be a Christian when seeking major public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background.

Let us all remain alert concerning Obamaas expected presidential candidacy
