uh oh... just read this in the news this morning. we are scheduled for a 1-day stopover in Jakarta in Sept as part of our honeymoon in ASia and are now considering rerouting. Anyone know about this?
The US embassy statement said: "The U.S. Embassy informs American citizens in Indonesia that the Embassy has learned that as of June 1, 2005, there were plans by extremists to conduct bomb attacks targeting the lobbies of hotels frequented by westerners in Jakarta. The attacks were to occur circa noon on an unspecified date. There is no additional information on the timing for the attack(s), or the method of attack."
The message is the latest in a series of warnings issued recently by the US and Australian embassies. Both countries have advised their citizens not to visit Indonesia.
