Download WhatsApp
In Indonesia, as in most countries in Asia, everyone uses WhatsApp instead of the operators networks. It is much much cheaper and efficient. You just need to buy a local sim card for a few dollars and add only data. Telkom has the best coverage. Top up when needed in any supermarket or on the Telkom app. This is the best way to communicate wit your drivers, GoJek – more on this below -us, the villa manager, everyone.
If you stay in Bali, download the GoJek App on you phone as well. You can order a scooter with driver or a GoCar – much cheaper than a taxi – or food, a massage, virtually anything.
