How safe is South Jakarta?
Its overall a pretty safe place depending on where you are, but usually after dark its a bit.. yea.. unless youre at a decently crowded area like senayan or places that are modern in a way. With sexual harrasment usually its only catcalls but i dont usually worry about anything else it feels safe generally

I think it depends on which area you’re going to, if you go to crowded places it is safer (you won’t get assaulted or kidnapped) but also you have more risks of getting robbed. In general never walk alone at night, always have someone with you just in case. If you have lots of tattoos, it’s also better to show them all as it can intimidate the men.
