"What the absolute fuck is wrong with people?"

Floods across Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Malaysia have killed close to 1,000 people.

Protect people. Finance adaptation. Make polluters pay.

I would have thought an #Australian would know that #Indonesia has multiple time zones, no?

An amazing #city
The largest city in the world
...Not anymore
"With an estimated population of nearly 42 million residents, #Indonesia's capital #Jakarta soared from 33rd place to surpass #Japan's Tokyo, according to a new #UnitedNations report"

The population of #Russia is about 145 million
Java is about 2/3 the size of #GreatBritain!
That's what rich volcanic soil does
