  • In Indonesia, there are localised payment system, called “Gerbang Pembayaran Nasional” (GPN) (in English: “National Payment Gateway”), and already applied and start to be commonly used since 2018.

    From Indonesian wiki:

    GPN localizes the banking payment system in Indonesia, which was previously present in international payment products such as Visa and Mastercard.

    I heard, atleast a Japanese online stores is also start to accepting Indonesian payment system/method too.

    I think, there are similar system in Russia too, since what I know, Visa & Mastercard cease its operation on there due to the ongoing conflicts.





  • the dynamics of aviation safety, especially for this year falldown where we witness several airplane crashes that resulting more fatalities.

    let say before 2024, the track record was good enough. like I didn’t read or notified much about air crashes at that time. there are several air crashes, but only few I can consider fatal or serious incident.

    but now, this year alone: we have American Eagle, Air India, the Bangladeshi military jet, and today the small Russian flight. not to mention several serious incidents and also small fatal plane crashes. not to counting several major air accidents/incidents in 2024 too.

    I believe there’s something going wrong here in aviation industry, resulting the overall safety deficiency. but again, my beliefs here is still kinda unproven. I read online discussions about this, but what I read, peoples on that industry can only says “we try our best”.
