Common Questions

Jakarta Asian Meetup FAQ

Everything you need to know about our Jakarta events.

🔐 Finding us in Kemang

Q1. Where do I find the group at Eastern Promise?

Eastern Promise is at Jl. Kemang Raya No.5, South Jakarta. Show your Meetup QR code at reception, collect your name tag, and you are in. If you cannot spot the group, ask the venue staff for the Lounge Asia meetup — our hosts will be there to welcome you.

Q2. How do I get to Kemang?

Kemang has no MRT station, so a ride-hail app (Grab or Gojek) is the simplest way in from anywhere in the city. Put Eastern Promise, Jl. Kemang Raya No.5 into the app and allow extra time in the evening peak — Jakarta traffic is Jakarta traffic.

Q3. How often does Jakarta run, and what time?

Every second Thursday, starting 7:00 pm Jakarta local time. One thing to watch: Lounge Asia's Meetup group is based in Australia, so the app may show the start time in Brisbane time or your own timezone. The 7:00 pm above is the real, local Jakarta start.

Q4. What does entry cost?

Check Meetup for current entry details. RSVP requirements and venue guidance can change, so confirm the listing before you travel.

Q5. Who comes along?

A real mix: Jakartans, expats and people here for work, students, travellers passing through, returnees, and digital nomads. Many guests come on their own, so turning up alone is completely normal — there are no games and no forced introductions, just conversation.

Q6. What should I bring?

Your Meetup QR code and a valid government-issued photo ID — a KTP, passport or driver's licence issued by the government of the country the event is held in. The venue does check, and no photo ID means no entry.

🛡 Safety & Community

Q7. What are the House Rules?

We run a Zero Tolerance Policy:
🚫 No selling: no MLM, insurance pitching, or recruiting — a common one here.
🚫 No harassment: this is not a pickup night.
Violators are removed on the spot.

Q8. Who is hosting in Jakarta?

Jo and Evi run the Kemang nights. If they are running late, start without them — the group knows the drill and someone will make sure you are introduced.

Q9. Is this a dating event?

No. Friendship first. It is a cultural exchange and professional networking community, and the room is built for conversation rather than matchmaking.

Q10. Is there a Jakarta community chat?

Yes — we run a Lounge Asia Indonesia WhatsApp group for event news and staying in touch with people you meet on the night. Same house rules apply there as in the room.

Why Join Our Jakarta Asian Community?

Lounge Asia is where Jakarta's local and international Asian community meets. Our fortnightly nights in Kemang give expats, locals, students and travellers a safe and welcoming 'Third Place' to make real friends — no perfect English required.

Whether you want to practise English in a relaxed setting or meet people with shared cultural backgrounds, our events at Eastern Promise on Jl. Kemang Raya are built for it. Come alone, take your time, and see why so many of our Jakarta guests come back.

Lounge Asia started in Australia and is now growing across Asia — Japan, Korea, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. The goal is simple: more friendship, more understanding, and more genuine connections across cultures, starting with your first night in Jakarta.
