Thanks for the compliment for Surabaya! However, what I heard recently is that other cities such as Medan and Makassar is catching up with Surabaya in terms of economic development very rapidly. I hope that Surabaya can develop in terms of economic activity and infrastructure to be somewhere nearer to Jakarta.

My top 5 Indonesian cities list is as follows:

Jakarta
Surabaya
Medan
Bandung
Jogja

joko · June 25th, 2005, 03:02 AM

Jakarta
Kuta Bali
Yogyakarta
Bandung
Balikpapan
