I know that in Indo, when you want to work with the authorities, proper/ly or not = another issue, it's a standard or common practice that there will be some kind of "fee" involved, again properly or officially or not = another issue.
And if like you said, you work with the proper authorities and let's say in proper way cos you do not pay them? Then they should also be working properly, so how can they just simply provide you with the supposing polisi classified information on where and when their road blocks/checks will be set up, in order for you to plan the best and safest routes for your clients???
If you don't have "special" connections, then how to have special arrangements with situiations? So whatever you claimed you could do or provide seems not too convinencing leh....
I think it'll be cheaper and safer to ride in RainMan's car, only need to carry my passport where ever I go (which I almost never did). Imagine going to cheong with a big and thick book in your pocket, you may end up losing it end of the night, especially after some heavy raba raba with the cewek in the disco or KTVs hahaha..... And with RM's car, don't even need to pay driver and bensin cos it'll be under his company or even his own account, which I don't care hehehe....
Only thing I need to do is, buy him a few nice n cool BintangSSS from the tap in AH's bar counter, that also most time he paid wahahaha, where to find such fine blah....derrrr........
On a last and serious note, no matter what, there is still law and order in Indonesia especially in the capital Jakarta where the government are, it's not as bad or scary as what some had projected it to be. And don't have to worry much about not knowing their law, all basic law in any where is almost similar, no matter what country you are in. Unless you are talking about law on setting up businesses, buying properties ect ect.... Otherwise it's basically simple common sense, like if you go steal, rob, rape, do narcotic ect ect, you've broken the law. For as long as if you don't break the law, no one can do anything to you. They can try all they want, but if you stand firm, they will leave you alone.
