I am so happy to be hanging out on Reformasi Dispatch for a while with Kevin O'Rourke and Steven Handoko. Especially this week when Kevin explains all re: what exactly all this legal stuff means for Jakarta https://t.co/8W41AYh9xb
Will leverage my podcasting celebrity status from @Reformasi_pod and apply for a golden visa via the 'personage' lane me thinks! https://t.co/OuunvZ21o9
In our latest episode, we talk to @andreasharsono of Human Rights Watch on his experience working as a journalist in the Soeharto era, Indonesia's current situation and hope for democracy in the Southeast Asia region.

A fun and I hope interesting discussion on “Imperfect Partners,” Southeast Asia, and how not to make China the centerpiece of US-Southeast Asia relations with the guys at @Reformasi_pod. Hope you’ll give it a listen.
We originally budgeted 20 mins but then ... as can happen with a diplomats, we got chatty. I can honestly say among the better interviews -- ie it's up there with anything we've done with @MumfordAsia ...It's that good
"Because you're a Chinese-Indonesian then you must support China" is the most preposterous, dangerous, and racist proposition I've ever heard.
It will only justify future discrimination against Chinese Indonesians, especially if the Natuna dispute blows up.
Our latest! With @MarcielScot
fmr US ambassador to Vietnam, Myanmar, Indonesia and author of “Imperfect Partners” a look-back at his 35yr career w/ insights into, balancing China, democracy in SE Asia. Forget Netflix! Scot is THE diplomat https://t.co/q9PEVBcV82
Very honoured to have former US Ambassador @MarcielScot as our guest. In his new book "Imperfect Partners", he has distilled a lifetime of insight on the little-understood region of SE Asia, in a way that is engaging, well-written and thought-provoking.
Coming up this Friday!
