Just went strolling through the Mangga Dua electronics mall area in Jakarta. Didn't have any problems, but sure caught a lot of interesting stares from the locals.. Made me a bit nervous (and I consider myself pretty good at situational awareness) so took the first Blue Bird taxi (the only kind to use in Jakarta) that came my way.
