9/9/04 saw the bombing of the Australian Embassy in Jakarta, supposedly to influence elections in Australia and Indonesia.

My company has said that business travel to Indonesia will come under heightened scrutiny before approval is given. They are not going all the way to raising the level to no travel, but there is something in the air as they don't change the security status without a good cause - especially when we have so much going on there.

Apparently a truck full of fertilizer was stopped on the way into Jakarta.

I hope nothing goes off as its the last thing the region needs right now.
