On Saturday, Jeremiah went to the Mangga Dua Mall in Jakarta in search of a charger for his laptop. Situated in the Chinatown District, Mannga Dua Mall had easily over 200 shops selling electronics, computers, computer accessories etc. Surprisingly, there were no Internet cafes there.
Here's why: besides the hardware stores, there were also numberous shops peddling pirated software and movies. Apparently, competition was so stiff that the shops selling priated stuff had computer terminals which their customers could use for free!!
